If Hollywood Is Okay With Gay, Then Why Are Actors Like Ron Livingston So Afraid Of Coming Out Of The Closet?
There is a terrific irony in the liberal elite these days– they claim to support the gay agenda wholeheartedly, except when it touches their personal lives. Hollywood democrats will fund homosexual rights initiatives and celebrate flamboyantly gay characters in movies, but suggest that one of them enjoys frequent same-sex, and they’ll throw a tizzy. Why is that? Why do they find the implication that they personally might be homosexual so upsetting and offensive when they give so much lip service to the gay agenda?
Take the case of actor Ron Livingston. He is a cut and paste West Coast liberal, having appeared in numerous young male roles in such films and tv shows as Swingers, Band of Brothers, Standoff, Office Space and Defying Gravity. With his chiseled jaw and scruffy ambiguity, gays and women alike find him alluring and easy. Yet when one internet encyclopedia included him in a list of homosexual actors and outed his boyfriend, Livingston was so upset he hired a team of lawyers to suppress the information. Livingston was even a regular character on the gay-themed, sexually explicit tv show “Sex and the City,” yet he can’t accept homosexuality in his real life. In a lawsuit filed this week in Los Angeles, California Superior Court against an anonymous internet author, the actor claims the accusations that he is gay are, “malicious and just plain awful.” He is seeking unspecified damages (which usually means millions of dollars) for being labeled “homosexual” in these permissive times.
So what is it Hollywood? Is gay okay? Or are you really disgusted with the reality that is the homosexual lifestyle– the outrageous clothes, the vicious effeminacy, all that painful sodomy, the moral weakness? Do you liberal elites who practice same sex encounters but act straight to the public really feel ashamed of who you are? Would your parents disown you for your reckless ways? Are you too scared to admit that you go weak in the knees in the face of a hairy, muscled chest? Are you too weak to accept the fact that you’re weak? It is the utmost irony that these people are so afraid of being publicly outed. It also is telling of a deeper truth: that they know in their soul of souls that being gay is just plain wrong and awful.
Hypocrisy is all too common these days. What happened to the time when a man could be a man and stand up for what he believes in despite the threats of abuse and terror? I am a Christian and I know that sodomy and the gay lifestyle are wrong. I will stand up loud and proud and shout my heterosexuality from every rooftop! Yet in Hollywood, movies like Brokeback Mountain and The Harvey Milk Movie are made starring excessively heterosexual actors and celebrated with smooth shirtless male statues. The liberal elites of this country spend countless millions funding gay marriage special rights, homosexual parades, sex education and more. Brad Pitt says he will not get a traditional normal marriage until the sodomites are granted the same privilege.
Yet when it comes to fessing up about their own hardcore desires, Hollywood’s male whores run screeching into their enormous wardrobe closets. It took threats of internet photos, videos and police reports to get the likes of Clay Aiken, Adam Lambert, George Takei, Doogie Howser and Perez Hilton to reluctantly admit that they enjoy the homosexual lifestyle. Many, many others have not been so bold. It has particularly hard on such men as George Clooney, John Travolta, Richard Simmons, Tom Cruise, Kevin Spacey and Elijah Wood.
And now add Ron Livingston to the list of Hollywooders afraid of being gay. The scandalous details that are being shopped to various gossip websites are that Livingston was romantically involved with Los Angeles Power Broker Leslie “Lee” Dennison (see photo above, on right), a famously lascivious celebrity horndog. There are also rumors that Ron Livingston was once wedded to actor Keanu Reeves, who himself has had his share of gay talk. Once this became public knowledge, Ron was so upset about the accusations that he hastily got married to handsome actress Rosemarie DeWitt last month. He finds this accusation so heinous, he is spending tens of thousands of dollars to suppress the information and jail those involved. Talk about your witch-hunts! I can’t wait for the discovery phase of the upcoming jury trial. Will Ron have to prove to the world that he’s straight? Will he explain publicly that being gay is really genuinely reprehensible? I sure hope so.
I believe this Ron Livingston case is incredibly instructive. Hollywood has a deep-seated dislike of homosexuality, as well they should. Isn’t about time they do something meaningful and brave and come out of the closet with their open and honest disapproval of the gay lifestyle? If every man in the acting business admitted their fears of being gay, it would be one of America’s most important 21st-century teachable moments.

Oh dear, where to begin…
The picture on the right has nothing to do with Hollywood. You clearly just typed ‘gay’ into Google, as people seem to do for most of their articles on here (most prominently the hilarious Chinalien article).
Ok, also, if Ron Livingstone were gay and ‘in the closet’, then you were the main reason why he wouldn’t ‘come out’. There. That makes the whole article void.
“With his chiseled jaw and scruffy ambiguity, gays and women alike find him alluring and easy”.
Stephenson Billington is clearly a closet homosexual himself. That would explain his fascinating fixation with them.

Perfect! By using “gay” as an epithet (aimed at me) you are only proving my point that the liberals secretly disdain the gay lifestyle. Also, I take offense at you taking the Lord’s name in vain. I hope you will show some respect in the future. Religion is important to people from all walks of life.
Secondly, the photo on the right (I assume in your garbled, childish way you’re referring to the top image on this page), is of Adam Lambert, the American Idol winner. Adam is a representation of homosexuality in Hollywood in that he denied he was gay until photos of him and another male burst all over the internet (exactly the point I made in my article, in case you didn’t actually read it). Adam then appeared on ABC and kissed another man, prompting the station to state that any future broadcasts of him would be time delayed and possibly censored if he made any more gay scenes on tv. Again, this is what I say in my article.
I have to say once again, PLEASE READ MY ARTICLES CLOSELY BEFORE POSTING YOUR INANE AND BASELESS COMMENTS/ACCUSATIONS!. It is a bit annoying for me to repeat myself when you make childish claims. Of course I’m not a homosexual, but it’s just predictable that you’d try to shame me with that label.

“Hypocrisy is all too common these days.”
true true but a hypocrite like you bashing someone else for being a hypoctire is hypocritlical aswell( and thats a lot of hypocrisy)
“Isn’t about time they do something meaningful and brave and come out of the closet with their open and honest disapproval of the gay lifestyle?”
wouldn’t it be just aswell if they all went out and admited to be gay?(the ones that are obviously) on wait no then it doesn’t fit with you plan now does it?
“If every man in the acting business admitted their fears of being gay”
it’s hardly a fear of being gay. it’s the fear of peoples reaction. thats why we fight for people to accsept them. so they don’t need to have that fear about who they are.they are not afraid of theire sexuality they are afraid of people like you.
also stephenson how would you fell if everybody could go to wikipedia and find out about you sexual prefrences. sure you freely admit to being hetrosexual but what about all the other stuff? do you like to do it with multiple women? difrent women? animals? in public? how do you do it when you do it? a persons sexuality is a personal thing and unless he wanna share it with the public he shouldn’t be forced too.

If, for instance, I were to use Wikipedia or Facebook to accuse someone of being an Ohioan or a turnip and it wasn’t true, everyone would laugh it off. On the other hand, if I were to say someone is a pedophile or a thief, people would take that quite seriously. If I was wrong, it would be libel and slander and worthy of a lawsuit. “Gay” doesn’t fall into the first category, it is not something to be taken lightly and can’t be laughed off. The fact that Hollywood liberals themselves look at “Gay” as falling into the second category only proves my point. Instinctively, Americans dislike homosexuality and sodomy and deep down they know it’s wrong. I just wish people would stop bowing down to gay activists and admit it’s nasty as openly as I do.

I’m quite enjoying your choice of images in this article. Pretty hot. You really have an eye for the male image. I digress.
Hollywood is a business. As long as people like you condemn others and images in pop culture reflecting gay lives, then yes, actors will be afraid to come out. You, and people like you who find it necessary to judge in place of God, should realize that none of us know exactly what happens after death. I’m pretty sure that when we all meet the pearly gates, God will wonder whether you were a force for making people happy in our short time on Earth or for making people feel angry, ashamed, suicidal. I’m pretty sure he’ll wonder who made you God.

Dear Mr (?) Hollywood,
I do not “troll” gay web sites. Any of them that I may visit are for research purposes only! Or else caused by viruses and spam emails infecting my computer with those annoying pop up pages. I do not need to see these things, but they are helpful in my first hand research on homosexuality. As a heterosexual Christian (200%!!!), I have never been interested in elicit male encounters. I find sodomy painful and disgusting.
In any event, you must agree that Mr. Livingston’s lawsuit shows a dislike of homosexuality. All I am saying, is that he come out and admit this personal view publically. I see many gay writers are saying exactly the same, that the lawsuit shows that homosexuality is viewed negatively enough to warrant quick court action.
Listen, if every gay person in Hollywood just came out of the closet on the same day, same hour we could get all of this behind us. We could stop the rumors and home videos, the gossip mills and the Christian concerns… The gays could have their own little party and the righteous amongst us could put those names down on a little list. I think it would be helpful for everyone. I think you’d agree this would benefit both of our causes.
With my affection and blessings,
Stephenson Billings

it doesn’t to me. it does however show that he don’t want others to talk about his sex life. why isn’t the man alowed privacy about his sexuality?
“that the lawsuit shows that homosexuality is viewed negatively enough to warrant quick court action.”
it dies and we have been saying so the entire time. it’s because people like you look so negativly on gays and since part of theire income is dependant on you guys likeling them they don’t wanna give you a reason to not like them. that doesn’t mean they PERSONALY have anything against gays.
“and the righteous amongst us could put those names down on a little list.”
why do you need to know which hollywood actors are gay? so you can have hot night with them or so you can track them down and kill them?
i’ll ask one more time: why should you have to know about something as personal as these guys sexuality? why can’t something that private be alowed to stay private?

Hate to burst your bubble, but I started posting on this site long before the majority of the other liberals on here did. The very first hateful, racist, sexist thing that I read on this site back in January or February or whenever it was that I registered here was enough to provoke me to strike back at the assholes who write the garbage articles on here.

Well that’s a flat-out lie! Seriously dude, you must be delusional to think that people appreciate what you write. Are you aware that the majority of comments on your articles are negative?

Well, I think the fact is, some gay people are afraid of others judgements. You know, like people like you, who want to show a very negative image of gays ? So, they lost their faith in themself and don’t want to show their real nature because of people like you. I find it very sad for them. If judgements disapear, they will be happier and love themself. And I don’t care you don’t want it. I don’t care what you will say. I just care of our world who begins (since a while, unfortunatly) to be very not opened-mind and respectful. So, people like extremists christians and others people should, at least, shut their mouth.

What a joke. Hey, I’m contributing money to help cancer patients, but since I don’t want cancer myself that means I’m secretly against the cause right? I donate food to the starving, but since I don’t want to starve that means I actually hate those that are. It’s amazing how people twist logic to such extremes to support their own incredibly bias ends, and then slap religion on it as an excuse.
Frankly, any person of true faith that follows the teachings of the lord would be ashamed of what is seen here on a regular basis. The twisted truths, judgemental nature, and outright lies is a shameful act far beyond anything done by those you point your fingers at, and goes against everything that stands at the core of Christian theology and the teachings passed down over the ages. I’d say you should be ashamed for how you’ve twisted Gods word and his faith in to a religion of hate, but that’s not my place, so I’ll simply pity those like you.

i was wondering you want the gay to admit they are gays, and apprently you fail to understand that your sexuality (spelling?) is a rather personal thing. if you do not wish to talk about it, then, by the will of God, you should not have to!
to prove my point i would like you to answer these questions:
are you gay?
do you like blowjobs?
what is the first you notice when you look at a beutiful woman(breast, ass)?
what kind of sex are you in to? (regular, kinky)
im asking these questions knowing im NEVER gonna get a answer. but those questions are a part of your sexuality wich is why you dont want to answer them. they are private and none of them actually matters to us.
but if you dont answer these questions, and if you aint telling the truth then why should others do it?

About Ron Livingston’s legal action:
From the complaint it sounds much less that the problem is with being labeled gay but the allegations of dating and presumably having relations with some one. (in this case a man)It is akin to saying he is stepping out on his new wife with another person. that could be detrimental and definitely malicious, as it harms his image (its paints him as an adulterer) and it could cause him marital troubles. (the same as if it was posted that he was dating another woman, its the fact that he is being said to date a specifically named person)
As for the other allegedly closeted Hollywood actors that are named in this article… Well, the GLBT comunity really should refrain from that ludicrous wishful thinking that doesn’t serve their cause. I mean, there’s no proof those people are gay, only low press insinuations and photoshopped pictures on the internet. Even Spacey is a doubtful case: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Spacey#Personal_life
