Tiger\u2019s response today is brought to you by the letter W<\/b>, for what the fuck<\/i>?<\/p>\n

You didn\u2019t miss anything in the books, don\u2019t worry. He doesn\u2019t visit female prostitutes for his sexual needs. <\/p>\n

That sounds like the kind of shitty, slap dash deductions that come from the Baker Street Irregulars. The people that claim that Holmes was in love with Trevor\u2019s little sister, and that she married a couple days before they were supposed to get married. Despite having never, you know, met <\/i>Trevor\u2019s sister before she died\u2026 <\/p>\n

Basically, any sort of deduction or meta that involves talking about Holmes sleeping with females of any profession end with me rolling my eyes so hard that I swear I can see the back of my orbital sockets. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s one thing to make inferences about the things that aren\u2019t said. It\u2019s something else entirely to completely ignore the things that are. \u201cIt\u2019s written that he\u2019s not in love with her? Oh, well, let\u2019s ignore that!\u201d <\/p>\n

On more than one occasion, it\u2019s stated that Holmes is not interested in women. Either through the narrative, or Holmes\u2019 own words. Whether that means he\u2019s homosexual, or asexual, it\u2019s plain and simple that the fair sex is not his department. He may as well have No Gurlz Alloud tacked up on a sign on their door. <\/p>\n

The man spends a good deal of time with his best friend in Turkish bath houses. I think it\u2019s fairly safe to say that if he had to take care of his sexual needs, they would be well in hand. <\/p>\n
