"I guess I still don't understand (and never will) why in today's day and age, someone's sexuality and life preference is such an issue."
I won't bet the farm on it but I'm pretty sure you're not out of high school AND not gay. I say this because if you were a bit older and gay, you would know that in "today's day and age" more than half of the states have no laws protecting gays against discrimination in the workforce. In today's day and age gays are still treated as second class citizens. In today's day and age gays are still beaten and killed for their sexual preference. In today's day and age we are still considered unfit to raise a family with our partners.
So you'll forgive me if I hold my Amens until a later date.

lazy..don't be so lazy...if you're gonna quote someone..use the WHOLE quote. "I like/respect an actor/musician/etc. for the work they do, not if they are gay or straight."
The point that I believe Tink was making was about being a "gay actor"..who cares if they're straight or gay..it's their craft and how good they are at it that is what really matters.

Posted: 11/6/06 at 2:00pmLazy - I read it that Tink just thought it was stupid that society still cares about the issue, not that she didn't understand why he was coming out.

I read it the same as you DG and boobs. And what I am saying is people still care because of all the things I listed in my previous post. The fact that on a silly, inconsequential
theatre board speculation of someone's gayness is automatic cause for deletion is proof that society cares about sexuality and sometimes places it above talent.
My objection was twofold. I think she mistates the obvious by saying that gay actors are not ashamed of or hiding their homosexuality. They are hiding it and it has to do with their livelihood. So in today's day and age people still fear losing a job because of being gay. My second objection was towards boobs and his amen to a post that clearly misses the point of the importance of gay actors coming out.
and a one word reply like Amen, is the definition of lazy.

I could have sworn I read an article about Neil Patrick Harris coming out when he was in Rent in Los Angeles, so I thought this was realy old news. I guess I just imagined it.
I would have LOVED to have seen Will's face from Big Brother when he heard the news. Hee!

OK, so maybe I missed the appropriate window to comment on this but I was catching up with this thread and had to respond to the whole man-slut thing. What gets me about the whole issue is the idea that being a man-slut (or man-ho in my neighborhood) is a badge of honor if you're a straight guy and a big insult if you're a gay guy. You know what? If NPH, or any other gay man for that matter, is a man-ho I say own it! Just freakin own it. Obviously you've got skills of some sort. Are those skills somehow less noteworthy because you're gay? I don't think so! Now I realize that there are probably some bigger and deeper issues at play about this that I just don't understand because I'm a straight chick. All I'm sayin is that I don't see what's so bad about being a man-slut if that's what you are.
And kudos to NPH for being honest. No matter who you are or who you love, telling the truth isn't always as easy as some would like us to believe.
