::I am very surprised that "Jack" is still eliminating verified sources and inserting his own editorializing into the "sexuality" section while it is under active discussion here.  As the material I have restored to the section makes clear, this is not just a matter of three critics examining Rydberg's poems, nor is it sensationalizing.  While it would be inappropriate to examine the specific details of Rydberg's private life, his basic sexual orientation is a matter of absolute unanimity among all scholars and reference works that have considered the subject, and is an important aspect of Rydberg's life that should not be whitewashed or swept into the closet.  I would welcome a good-faith attempt by anyone to cast this material in a more acceptable light, as was suggested regarding the Thomas Mann article.  However, wholesale deletion of sources, insertion of misleading and deceptive quotes, and personal editorializing such as permeated the last edits to this section, should not be acceptable in any reference work.
