i also love your comment .."pushing the gay agenda".kind of like how the religious right push their agenda on anyone that will listen, like used car salesmen? do you really think that they tried to trick straight laced close minded right wingers into seeing this movie with 30 second long trailors? give me a break! anyone who turns on a television or a radio for 5 minutes a day could have heard that this movie hit the homosexual topic.
you sound just like the typical hypocritical religious right winger......you expect everyone to be open minded about your views but, you are close minded to others' views.

Judging by her age and her choice of words(common on FOX News and the like), I'd say she probably heard the phrase from her parents.
No excuse, obviously, but ignorance needs a seed in order to be planted.
Whenever I read comments like hers, claiming that Brokeback doesn't present itself as a gay-themed film, I have to laugh. I mean, come ON! Everyone knows what that movie is about. And even if you didn't, who cares? Gay people don't get pissy when they go to a movie and get inundated with heterosexual love scenes. It's all people, people!
Reminds me of this:
That said, I don't worry
too much about people who hold those kind of archaic beliefs about gay people. I'm sure that, within a few years, they will go the way of those who used to think that black people shouldn't be allowed to mingle with white people.
It's all rather silly, honestly. Unfortunately, it can also be a dangerous belief to hold.
As well, one that will keep you from experiencing life to the fullest. A tiny world scrubbed of all of life's colour is no place I'd want to live.
