Says James Buchanan might have been gay and had a male roomate for 16 years!
The only unmarried president - heh.

Abraham Lincoln also shared another guy's bed. The chief evidence of Lincoln's homosexual inclination is his relationship with Joshua Speed, a handsome 22-year-old shopkeeper whom he met in 1837. Lincoln, then 28-year-oldand poor cash-poor, arrived in Springfield, Illinois, and asked about the price of bedding at Speed's general store. Learning that Lincoln was nearly broke, Speed invited him to share his bed upstairs. As Carol Lloyd wrote in Salon in 1999: "The traveler inspected the bed and, looking into the merchant's sparkling blue eyes, agreed on the spot. For the next four years the two men shared that bed along with their most private fears and desires."

For those who remember Morecambe & Wise (it's a British thing), they too shared a bed, as did Laurel & Hardy (how old am I) and who could forget Bert & Ernie's (Sesame Street) nightime escapades, especially when Ernie was 'scared' of the noises outside their bedroom window and kept going down under the covers ... sorry, dissappearing under the covers!
