If a boy falls in love with another boy in the forest, but the boy is actually a girl dressed as a boy so she doesn't get sacrificed to Neptune, but the other boy is ALSO a girl dressed as a boy so SHE doesn't get sacrificed to Neptune, and unbeknownst to them they're both the subject of some Cupid-Venus-Diana god trickery, and in the end both of them are fine with one of them ACTUALLY becoming a boy if it means they can be together forever... is it really gay? Probably, but find out for sure in GALATEA! Galatea by John Lyly is a pastoral comedy that explores themes of love, gender identity, and fate. Set in a mythical world, the story follows two young women, Galatea and Phillida, whose fathers disguise them as boys to protect them from being sacrificed to Neptune. Unaware of each other's true identities, they fall in love, creating a humorous yet poignant exploration of gender roles and attraction. The play also features mischievous nymphs, an interfering Cupid, and divine intervention.
