This article examines the aspects of contradictory sexuality in Tennessee Williams’ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. The contradiction of sexuality to be explored in this article refers to homosexuality vs. heterosexuality. Given the social norms prevalent in the South, Williams is quite contradictory in terms of sexuality. Sexuality constitutes a leit-motif in the overall context of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Brick is ambivalent in his pursuit of sexuality, feeling homosexual desire toward Skipper and, simultaneously, heterosexual desire toward his wife, Maggie. Brick eventually escapes from his homosexual propensity and attains a heterosexual relationship. Through Brick, Williams portrays that homosexuality, abnormal as it may look from the viewpoints of the majorities, should be accepted by the majorities not as an object of social criticism or discrimination but as a reality of sexual preference. Brick’s sexual adjustment with Maggie, in some senses, is indicative of Williams’ own sexual attitude. In other senses, however, Williams is casting a message of reconciliation between the sexual minorities and the sexual majorities.
