Get Over It

Ok. I am starting to get really tired of hearing about homoeroticism and homosexuality. The relationship that Coriolanus and Aufidius have does not seem homosexual to me. Yes, what was said by Aufidius to Coriolanus could be viewed as homosexual, but it is also in the form of flattery and admiration. The reader must understand that these men are warriors. They live for the battles and wars they fight. In a sense, yes they are obsessed with one another because they are exactly alike and each other's opponent.
