Capote. We can only hope that more writers with professional skill and a rationally sympathetic viewpoint will turn their attention to this field as public interest grows and the old taboos give way.
Our fifth category takes in all the bisexual people, those who are capable of loving both men and women, or perhaps it would be fairer to say those who are capable of loving a few men and a few women, for people in this category seem often to be finely discriminating, highly intelligent, and somewhat fastidious. These are the people who
often refuse to admit their roal nature because they get hell from both sides. The homophile who is not attracted to the opposite sex may be at odds with his family, uneasy at straight social gatherings, and on guard at work, but unless he lives in a very small town he can usually find a few of his own kind among whom to relax.
The bisexual, on the other hand, is in the camo position as the child of a mixed marriage: noither side wants him. The individuals ho loves may reject him because of his ambivalent nature, and he may be thrown in an inner turmoil that destroys his chance of ever finding any real peace of mind. I'm not talking about the people who marry and then find that their interests are elsewhere, or those who have a few experimental relationships with the opposite sex, but those who actually are erotically attracted to members of both sexes, often at wide intervals in time and often in a context of companionship and shared intellectual interests.
