Second, it should not be gay.
There is a saying in Li Sao that "many women are jealous of their beauty and rumored to be addicted to sex", which does not mean that Qu Yuan is gay. He just used a rhetorical method in his writing to show that he was politically excluded. If we only explain it literally, does "the beauty of jade" mean that Qu Yuan is a woman? Qu Yuan's words and expressions are really hard to understand.
