You don't have to go that far.

I've seen people arguing that the relationship between Frodo and Sam was of two gay me. And not of two friends.

They were just mentioning that on a Tolkien podcast a few days ago and I wanted someone to call in and tell them it was nonsense. Yes Sam and Frodo loved each other deeply, no they were not gay. It’s frustrating.

There was no sexual angle whatsoever between Sam and Frodo... it's so painful how people label literary characters in retrospect. It's become a fashion now...
