Yet JD would not be so forthright. Would he. He would not come right out
and say that the man is homosexual because that is the point of the story.
Ginnie is attracted to the man and because we are to question (not simply
know) whether he is homosexual or not is the ambiguity within the story.
Is she interested in someone who is absolutely unatanable (above and
beyond the age difference). What I mean is that Ginnie's character is at
once aggresive and giving. This instance is setting her character up as
being one who will always fall in love with people she cannot have. She
will always desire what she cannot have and be given what she does not want.
Just my take.
