And Abraham Lincoln too, they say. Well, for that matter, any arguably virtuous historic figure who has been dead long enough that no one with direct knowledge can defend against such claims. Sure, why not. How about Thomas Jefferson?

Yeah...Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, et al... but according to Valdimir Nabokov the Beefeaters in England were notorious for male prostitution.

They say Thomas Jefferson (a widower) got it on with a slave. The only source of info on that relationship was his political opponents, so we can't make too much of it.

But if we were to believe it, then interestingly enough we'd say he was ahead of his time. According to his opponents Jefferson took her out to galas in his day with her dressed to the nines and introducing her not as his servant but as his girlfriend. Some said he took her with him across the ocean to diplomatic events and introduced her the same in France and London. Oh, the inhumanity! Do you want someone like that representing us? (It's how Jefferson's opponents said it.)

Oh come on, let’s not forget their favorite targets…..Jesus Christ and his disciples.
