twincityhacker: hands in an overcoat's pockets (They all wore a green carnation)
I'm reading some of the prompts for the [livejournal.com profile] lgbtfest prompts, and one of the prompts made me giggle a bit.

.806. Torchwood: Jack Harkness. Jack hanging out in any gay scene of the past century and a half [writer's choice], as he waits to find the Doctor again, and maybe meeting someone romantically. Historical accuracy is always awesome.

It's not the prompt itself, but because of Between the Acts, there was included a story of a man from Cardiff, and I keep thinking that he and Jack would get along excellently. It would also be very much in tune with Jack's ( infamous? ) long line of literary lovers. Though all the parts were from an oral history project, so there are some technicallites for his inclusion on the list.

I'm also reading The Intermediate Sex by Edward Carpenter. This is probably my favorite quote in the book, from the appendix:

"The truth is that we can no more explain the inverted sex-feeling than we can the normal impulse; all attempts at explanation of these things, and of Love, are defective." .
