Best Answer

Langston Hughes did not explicitly reveal his sexual orientation in his poems. While there has been speculation about his sexuality due to his relationships and personal life, Hughes did not openly identify as gay. People speculate based on his close relationships with men and lack of documented romantic involvement with women.

The short story 'Blessed Assurance' was about a father's anger over his son's sexuality. There were also several poems discovered that Hughes never had published related to his love for black men.
