the baron is the evilist and the gayest man in all of human history, where these are the same things and herbert struggled a lot later with this because his son was gay. basically guys were really afraid of powerful rapists when they were young and that got conflated a lot with being gay and not a rapist, with no shortage of encouragement. i think i wrote a post in the dune thead in cined about hemingway handling this a lot more honestly and directly than herbert. as in one was homophobic and one lays out the fear of rape conflicting with his love for his gay friends in a clear simple way.

i totally am but it still comes down to him really wanting to kill the baron because he was a wife guy and the baron tortured and killed her and so he develops an imperative that the baron has to die

this is totally in keeping with herbert's overall themes, one of which is that heterosexual monogamy is the ultimate virtue but isn't actually compatible with survival in a world of power and politics. it's definitely heterocentric but also kind of points out that not even good old fashioned heterosexual monogamy is really something that fits naturally into something like aristocratic politics.

e: even Leto II, He Who Never hosed, was a wife guy and that's his secret weakness.

as someone who would have been a total wife guy but it didn't work out due to finances and distance and the repercussions of a lovely culture, yeah, i kinda feel the wife guy thing. but it's incredibly heterocentric and he idealizes the wives almost as bad as an edwardian unless they're bene gesserit.

do they even have his wife? i just remember Yueh isn’t sure if he should believe them but it’s still enough to get him to betray Leto despite the constantly-mentioned betrayal-proof conditioning.

we just finished the first HP book with my seven year old and it cannot be overstated how loving dumb and brain damaged JK Rowling is.

idk. in the movie the only backstory you get about it is a single line delivered clumsily at the end of the second act so possibly not but we have no reason to doubt it (other than it makes no sense for House Atreides to employ someone whose wife is unaccounted for)

what is the dumbest most obscure character they'll try to spin up i wonder. i joked about Rom the Space Knight getting a movie but it turns out there's all kinds of complicated rights issues with ol' Rom which might complicate things.
