\u201cLove is a sacrament that should be taken kneeling\u201d

\u2014Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde WAS gay and he DID suck dicks but \u201clove is a sacrament that should be taken kneeling\u201d is not about oral sex. It is not even erotic.

Here\u2019s the rest of the quote. It\u2019s from De Profundis:

\u201cMost people live for love and admiration. But it is by love and admiration that we should live. If any love is shown us we should recognise that we are quite unworthy of it. Nobody is worthy to be loved. The fact that God loves man shows us that in the divine order of ideal things it is written that eternal love is to be given to what is eternally unworthy. Or if that phrase seems to be a bitter one to bear, let us say that everyone is worthy of love, except him who thinks that he is. Love is a sacrament that should be taken kneeling, and Domine, non sum dignus should be on the lips and in the hearts of those who receive it.\u201d

actually gay people can write about gay sex and other things! oscar wilde did mean sucking dick! he also meant love and devotion and religion and guilt and worship! it\u2019s called a double entendre! he was pretty famous for them!
