Talk:Carlos Monsiváis

message: As I read his bio, it disturbed me that I could find no mention of marriage or children. Elena Poniatowska is cited in one article as being a great friend of his and their friendship is almost 50 years plus. She was quoted as saying he had nephews only. Somehow that got picked up and in another article I found, information about his love for cats became apparent. In fact, the Spanish wiki has a whole section cited on that.
Editors need to be careful in interpretting the "50s Generation" or even anything else similar. Did it arise overnight? No. Did it only start with 1950 and end with 1960? No. There are events that led up to it and which influenced it. Likewise, just as Monsiváis spanned generations, people like Cantinflas and Pedro Infante left their marks too. Infante may have died an early death but his legacy stretches on.
Slashing another editor's work just because of literacism is not a great idea. ----moreno oso (talk) 10:53, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: To be clear on Infante, while he may have died early, he still contributes to the Mexican cinema, pysche and fanbase. To dictate by deletion fiat that his contributions ended with his death and could not stretch beyond is baffling and wrong. ----moreno oso (talk) 11:00, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: *It is well known that Monsiváis was gay, which is why they put a rainbow flag on his casket. He was a discrete man and did not talk much about it. Several articles have come out on the topic such as "Cubre bandera gay féretro de Carlos Monsivais" and "Duelo en México por deceso del escritor Carlos Monsiváis".--Lawrlafo (talk) 22:13, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
