Dan Savage, the most amusing advice columnist ever (And also the man who's responsible for spreading Santorum across the land) gave some advice to a young homo, saying the best place to meet other young homos was in a theatre group. Here's an amusing response to that from today's column. So, are most actors strait?
Q. In your "Advice to 15-Year-Old Gays and Lesbians," Small Town Diva suggested that gay boys and girls join theater groups because even the "strait" actors are bi. This has got to be one of the oldest stereotypes in the book. I'm a strait actor. While I do meet more gay people than someone in another profession would, I still have more strait actor friends than gay actor friends. If you're gay and want to be an actor, great. But if you're gay and expect every actor you meet to be gay too, just move along, please. —A STRAIT ACTOR
A. It's been my experience that most straight people can spell the word straight. But, hey, thanks for sharing, Tom, and give my love to Katie.

The funny thing is, I really don't care about things like that. It seems only the people who are really insecure and NEED to let everyone know they're "strait" like the Bering seem to get up in arms over being asked.
I think it's kind of hot they get so drunk that they let their inhibitions go enough to get it on with Billy.
Or Susie. I know far more girls who are straight who experiment in theatre than guys.

My friend has pictures of me making out with a guy. I have no memory of the event at all, which leads me to believe that I was smashed out of my head when it occured. Gotta love college!
