while nobody in peter grimes is literally textually gay the opera is on a symbolic level about being gay. billy budd, on the other hand, is just an opera about how three men having a threesome could have solved all of that.

"In dreams I've built myself some kindlier home,

Warm in my heart, and in a golden calm

Where there'll be no more fear and no more storm.

And she will soon forget her schoolhouse ways,

Forget the labour of those weary days,

Wrapped round in kindness like September haze.

The learned at their books have no more store

Of wisdom than we'd close behind our door.

Compared with us, the rich man would be poor."

— From Act 2, Scene 2 of Peter Grimes, an opera by Benjamin Britten, with a libretto adapted by Montagu Slater from a poem by George Crabbe.

Ladies &c who play with needles for fun and profit gotta stick together ❤️
