Abstrakt: The article discusses male-male attraction as presented in Oscar Wilde's novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray." The so called alternative sexuality was defined by Eve Sedgwick as "the panoply of nineteenth-century sexualities." It also detects hints of heterosexual attraction, autoeroticism, incest and necrophilia. The novel also portrays the gender role-playing and in mutual reproduction, which is the basis of the desire for domination.
