From the very moment that I began to become aware of sexual stirrings within myself, I realized with horror that those erotic feelings were directed toward men, or at that point, boys.

...accept an acting award from the thespians at Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theatricals and to watch some skits from their all-male musical spoof, A Little Knife Music. Streep, an old Eli who studied acting at the Yale School of Drama, was presented with a gold pudding pot, and was also granted custody of one of the burly "chorus girls" who surrounded her-a send-up substitute for the kid she lost to Dustin Hoffman in Kramer vs. Kramer. "I hope my son never turns out like this," cracked Streep good-naturedly, stroking the Harvard lad's muscled...
