Yes, well, I knew you didn't mean that, and knew all that, but it is a little what it sounded like - like, he couldn't be surprised by contemporary attitudes about sexuality.
I know Sal Romano isn't a "real person," but he's real to me - just per "the closet" - isn't that also a real thing that exists and existed, people not actually having sex with anyone, and not out to those closest to him - his wife and childhood friend, or his mother? And when I remember AH, whom I always just loved, and so did mom, I just hope his life wasn't like that.
