As for titillation, I've never seen an all-male production, but I wonder whether it's possible for the audience to suspend disbelief so entirely as to forget that the person playing Rosalind is in fact a boy playing a girl playing a boy? Or even, would that add an extra thrill to it?
Aah, well... at my all-boy boarding school, you saw that all the time (in the theatrical productions I hasten to add!), and it certainly didn't add a thrill to it, I'd rather have seen a woman playing a boy playing a woman anyday.
