The real J. Edgar Hoover's homosexuality (mygenes.co.nz)


Was the result of a lack of a daddy when growing up (his father was there but his mom mattered way more). He stuttered too. Think of the real FBI director not an actor playing him here.

Webpage mygenes shows lack of parental care a contributing factor to homosexuality.

I have heard of other gays who stuttered as children.

I'm not opposed to gay relationships, but I feel like I should mention that former members of Hoover's security detail say they never saw any indication of a romance between Tolson and Hoover. Is it possible that they could have had a closet relationship? Sure. The point is that there's no empirical evidence of such relationship. They could have been just BFFs for all we know.

Knowing how thoroughly he was despised by the rich and powerful, reports of his homosexual tendancies and predilection for women's clothing could just be a nasty rumor started by his enemies to smear his reputation when he could no longer touch them.
