I know this is the very last thing that C.S. Lewis intended with the book but there is more than one passage in That Hideous Strength where Jane Studdock is written as if she's attracted to women and it's hilarious that Lewis had no idea that people would ever interpret it that way.
"Freud said we liked gardens because they were symbols of the female body. But that must be a man's point of view. Presumably gardens meant something different in women's dreams. Or did they? Did men and women both feel interested in the female body and even, though it sounded ridiculous, in almost the same way? A sentence rose to her memory. 'The beauty of the female is the root of joy to the female as well as to the male, and it is no accident that the goddess of Love is older and stronger than the god.' Where on earth had she read that? And incidentally, what frightful nonsense she had been thinking for the last minute or so!"
In pretty much every other way this book is, like, the most heterosexual book of all time but I'll take what I can get.
"At that moment the door suddenly opened. Jane turned crimson as she shut the book and looked up. The same girl who had first let her in had apparently just opened the door and was still standing in the doorway. Jane now conceived for her that almost passionate admiration which women, more often than is supposed, feel for other women whose beauty is not of their own type. It would be nice, Jane thought, to be like that - so straight, so forthright, so valiant, so fit to be mounted on a horse, and so divinely tall."
All. Of. This.
