St. George
Early texts about George are explicitly homoerotic. At one point George is about to marry, when Christ intervenes, wishing to keep George as a virginal bridegroom for himself.
When George finally enters Heaven, Christ welcomes him with bridal imagery:
Hail, My George! Hail beloved of myself and of My Angels…I swear by My right hand, Oh my beloved one that I will establish a covenant with thee that when thou shalt bow thyself upon thy spiritual face in heaven and shall come with all they congregation to worship the holy Trinity, all the saints know thee by reason of the honour which I will show thee, O My beloved.
