The Auden/Kallman relationship had this to be said for it: It affirmed that it's better to be blatant than latent.

About This Quote

The Auden/Kallman relationship was an example of open sexuality in an era when it was illegal. The relationship was not necessarily permitted, but there was no way to stop it. The Auden/Kallman relationship (Auden/Kallman) is the name of a famous literary couple. This couple went by the same names as two influential writers, W.H.Auden and Stephen Spender.

The relationship was well known to the public because they were often seen walking around the city together. They were often photographed together (especially by Alfred Eisenstaedt) and became quite popular among the people of New York City. People who knew them said that they were just friends, but that they never denied that the public had a widely accepted image of being more than just friends.
