If he is going to be labelled in this way relevant information should be provided in the article with a reliable source.--Johnsoniensis (talk) 20:03, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically it's the relationships with Pears and Britten: Pears lived with him at Bucklebury Common[1] and Britten, while referring to him, used the word "Dear", which was "Britten's blanket term for his intimate friends"; he used the same word in regard to Peter Pears and Lennox Berkeley.[2] But above all it's the LGBT (mostly Gay) circle he moved in: Edward Burra, Evelyn Waugh, Lennox Berkely, E.M. Forster, Rupert Doone... all are cited in the article.Elisa.rolle (talk) 20:19, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
