        Got a bit of a shock when I visited your bio! There's no way of telling your account has adult content. Anyway...I quite like JW and think it's more about quality of acting.

        The important difference between gay people having opportunities to act in films with gay characters compared to mainstream straight actors/characters is that many gays still struggle to be themselves & ‘come out’ so it’s important to have opportunities to promote gay pride.

        Yup! oppression of livelihoods and shaming/glass closeting doesn’t happen to str8s over their sexuality, and there are queer men who can’t get away with passing as straight so it’s a false comparison. Straight privilege is a thing. I’m tired of explaining it tbh 🤷🏼‍♂️

        That’s the nature of acting. There are more serious things to be offended about.

        It's called acting. I would equally hope Rupert Everett, Sir IanMcKellen et al would not be proscribed from takung on het roles.

        There’s nothing wrong with straight people playing gay or bisexual & vice versa. However, for as long as the opportunities to do so are minimal it seems unfair to prevent someone from playing a part that they will have the opportunity to feel themselves in more.

        Of course they can they are actors why should they not play gay actors did you not see bear back mountain... as long as they do not do the straight typical mind set of how they think gays act then it’s not a problem
