Latent homosexuality

"Latent homosexuality" (or unconscious homosexuality) is type of repressed sexuality with various outward manifestations.[1]

In fiction

In Kingsley Amis' 1966 book The Anti-Death League, the main character is introduced while resisting treatment for repressed homosexuality – which a doctor believes that he has – despite the man being openly homosexual.

Latent homosexual themes were a common theme of science fiction films of the 1950s.[2]
