Auden that he was offended by a fellow poet's use of Jewish and gay epithets, "since [he was] both these things", to which Auden replied, "My dear, I never knew you were Jewish!"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreih7kjvy74chfqoo5fg6vi3fpy3ndwwl4yzqn3jelnfxdjjb3xlpw4)
