Newsweeker says gay actors can't portray straight characters. I mean, it's not as if gay people ever get any practice in pretending to be het.

Thanx to Shakesville.

It's fine so long as you don't know. Once you do you're staring at a gay man kissing someone. And nobody wants that - it's an assault on our maleness!

(Obviously, I don't believe this. But it does seem to be the gist of some of the idiotic screeds I've read.)
