I was thinking Greek, seeing homosexuality was praticed amongst greek men going back thousands of years ago.

Which language do you think has the most gay literature and why?

Dutch. There is very little Dutch literature, but what there is, is mostly leftist drivel. Case in point Harry Mulisch.

I say English. Aside from Oscar Wilde, there are other English Speaking writers who had gay literary works like:

William Shakespeare, who serenaded his darling boy in his sonnets

William Blake who railed against priests "binding with briars my joys and desires;"

Walt Whitman, who sang the body electric. The list of luminaries, artists, statesmen, men of the cloth, knights and knaves who felt the pull of male love - by itself, or alongside the love of women - is endless.
