Allan Bloom's real worry wasn't the "Closing of the American Mind" but the "Opening of the American Closet." Discuss.
@marksholdice Well, I agree with Socretes. Still, Bloom felt his sexuality best kept in shadow & expressed in code. I'd call that a closet.

@HeerJeet I think the argument is only important if we assume homosexuals must be open about their sexuality; I can understand his reticence -
@marksholdice Well, argument goes well beyond gay identity -- I think it's crucially inflected with questions of feminism and democracy. - Show replies
