They are also trying to portray Abraham Lincoln and Richard the Lion-Hearted as bisexual as well. While I'm not entirely sure about the accuracy of their accusations against King Richard, I have studied enough about Abraham Lincoln that I probably would have come across a hint as to these allegations.

I've studied Richard Coeur de Lion a great deal. He married Berengaria of Navarre, who had a decent dowry and an inheritance of almost no strategic significance, but who was allegedly good-looking, after breaking an engagement to a French princess who was his father's mistress. They had no children, and spent about five months together out of the whole eight years they were married, and Richard never brought her to England (she's the only Queen Consort of England never to have set foot in the land).
Yeah, I think Richard was gay.
