Typically all of this is subsumed by Trans iconoclasm, dismiss "conservative" authors as phobics (in era and out), rinse, repeat.

He totally was a nazi and definitely wasn't pretending to. His last book was quite literally about just how big of a nazi he was and that the government's claims of him suffering from dementia were false.

>During World War II, Hamsun put his support behind the German war effort. He courted and met with high-ranking Nazi officers, including Adolf Hitler. Nazi Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels wrote a long and enthusiastic diary entry concerning a private meeting with Hamsun; according to Goebbels Hamsun's "faith in German victory is unshakable". In 1940 Hamsun wrote that "the Germans are fighting for us". After Hitler's death, he published a short obituary in which he described him as "a warrior for mankind" and "a preacher of the gospel of justice for all nations."

He was a nazi and is my literary hero.

Allow me to grasp at straws and claim Hamsun was not a nazi —he simply realized the anglo-soviet menace must be dealt with.

What more would one need to claim being a member or supporter of a political movement besides proudly advocating for it's cause and denouncing it's enemies? He probably didn't arrive at the Nazi ideology independently or agreed wholeheartedly with every aspect of it, but they aligned with his political sentiments enough that it is safe to say he was a Nazi.

A friend I had (don't know if I could really call him a friend, he probably kept me around like you'd keep around a trick dog, also tricked me into thinking his ultra-masculine friend was a FTM Jew, which he was not) told me about his first time having sex. He just said that it's not worth it, I shouldn't have it. Embarrassed himself by drooling on the chick's back, it wasn't what they all made it out to be. Some people are cool about it, some people will think differently or less about you because of it.

That sounds like he was having sex with someone he didn't love. I can't dispute the claims of people who say sex isn't that great and is overrated because I've never experienced it but I suspect they are either trying to be nice or they're only doing hook ups, not searching for true love.

Sex with true love? The way I see it, nothing in this world will be as good as you expect. Even if it is, it will get old soon. What is left for you to do is to cultivate virtue and to endure together, sometimes indulging in sex as an act of intimacy and pleasure. Perhaps in another world, we will all be rewarded for the good we've done, and these things will be made sublime, not dematerialized and transformed into eternal praise and asceticism.

But sex here, with someone you love? I suppose it is a very touching experience that you will fondly remember even when the two of you are apart, if fate is so cruel. Perhaps he was only trying to be nice, he was quite false.

A wonderful thing, to speak like two humans in this place. I have reached the point where I cannot form meaningful attachments with humans anymore because I needed to defend myself (perhaps from my own judgement, if not theirs). Another's love is out of the question, and sex is a rag without love.

It can be terrifying to make yourself vulnerable but lowering the defenses is necessary for love, or so I've heard. My knowledge of love comes from books and movies, not experience so I am reluctant to give any advice. They are good books and good movies though.

Anon… odds are even if you see it that way she will not; unless she’s extremely sheltered and naive. That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy meaningful and emotionally fulfilling relationships, but don’t think they’re true love or something like that

Do you really think that? Women grow up watching all sorts of stuff about princesses. When they're older they watch a bunch of romcoms about true love. They mostly listen to music with romantic themes too. Don't they? I...might not interact with them enough to actually confirm this. I figured that most of them think in that romantic way too. Sure, there are some who are only interested in hook ups but I assume that's not the majority.

I feel like love for a person (who either you are fearful to approach or does not approach you) is the model for love of God. There was a reason why love of a woman was thought of as a rival to love of God. Perhaps we will be given both in the time to come, and the hereafter.

You realize that you are worthless to win the person, and that reciprocal love depends on that person's patience and unpaid compassion for you. You realize that you do not deserve them in this life, as it is, as you are. You realize that it is a delight to belittle yourself, as many do before God, and magnify your lover, but that this is also useless because it only leads into despair and forgetfulness. The lover does not want sacrifices, but wants a virtuous and beautiful you. The only difference here is how Christianity defines "beautiful" in a way that is always contrary to intuition and material.
