Thank you for this!
So interesting: I thougth I knew this sonnet very well and have to find tons of P*** and V*** more than I thought!
May I add one thought to the question if Shakespeare was gay (in my best english): What was a better place for an artist being gay than the theater where you are allowed to wear women's clothes, where you can speak to a man how it is only allowed to a woman (even it's only written in the script) and where you can flee from your marriage.
Are you going to present Sonnet 129? I think this must be the feeling of somebody who can't have "legal" sexuality. Like a drug addict he stagger through illegality.

Excellent point! And yes, I will be getting to Sonnet 129 very soon!
