To me the article that we read in class did change my views on the book, but mainly just on him, the book I think does have some examples of homosexuality throughout the book. not just because of how Allai and Ender cared deeply for each other but because of how when Ender was going into Salamander army Allai kissed ender on the cheek and how ender started talking about how it felt on his cheek and stuff. I also think that how close all of the boys at the battle school were and how most of them had no problem at all with sleeping naked an d walking around naked in front of the other boys there. I also found it weird how Bonzo also took off his clothes to fight Ender instead of letting Ender put on clothes or at least have his towel, because of his Spanish honor.
I'm not necessarily saying that the characters in the book have feelings for each other in that way or anything I just find it weird how an Anti gay author shows so many examples of it in his book and I don't think you can really separate an author from what he or she writes because to write it I think you have to kind of feel that way or think that way in real life.
