description: Dear AuthorJayne Cobb of Firefly fame struck me as a man deep in the closet striving to be hyper masculine and completely misogynistic simply to hide his attraction to men. Im thinking Kinsey three or four. This would also explain his extreme dislike of the shy Dr Simon (who we now know was played by a gay man).Id love to see a post Serenity space opera treatment of someone like Jaynes self-realization. Now what would be his type hmmm what man would finally drive him wild enough to face up to his repressed desires. It should include all of the attendant emotional turmoil (inside monologue) of someone with his low IQ and high survival instincts and yet include the outside language of someone who was trained to say as much with as few words as possible. This man has depth but the waters are pretty murky.Anyone take the challenge?Photo Description: The original request included a promotional shot of Jayne Cobb a character from Firefly. He is gruff with a face shadowed by stubble and he is crouched and holding a gun. The request wanted a man deep in the closet striving to be hyper-masculine and completely misogynistic simply to hide his attraction to men.This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's Love Has No Boundaries event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.
