No, but why is Croft that way? Oh there are The Answers. He is that way because of the-corruption-of-the-society. He is that way because he is having problems of adjustment. It is because he is a Texan. It is because he has renounced God. He is that way because he was born that way, or because the Devil has claimed him for one of his own, or because the only woman he ever loved was untrue to him. Norman Mailer
About This Quote

Those who are born gay are not necessarily evil, they are simply people who were born in societies where it is not acceptable. Most of the time, society teaches these individuals that they are somehow wrong. They do not accept them for who they are and often try to change them into something that they believe is better. It is like when you meet people who live in a different country somewhere in the world. They may be very nice, but you do not understand their ways of living since you have never lived in their country.
