http://www.pravoslavie.ru/jurnal/culture/leontiev.htm - There is no mention of any "homosexual themes" in Leontiev writings in this article...where did you got this info ? Fisenko 03:40, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

It is pathetic to cite the official website of the Russian Orthodox Church on this issue. What do you expect, that the Church would proclaim that Leontyev wrote gay novels? I believe, to ascertain the truth, you should visit a local library. Here's what a casual google search found:

I have some of Leontiev's works. I have not read everything that he has written, but the "homosexual themes" I've seen are not prominant at all and involve some imagination by the reader (i.e., he might in his writings describe a man as being handsome or describe a male's physical features). I don't understand why his possible bisexuality is featured in brief article.Faustian 18:45, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
