Billy Crystal riles the gay community...

This caught my attention as I was going through my inbox. He is the least controversial star I can think of, and really a well spoken and funny man. I read what he said, and I would take it one step further; I don't really want to worry that every movie I'd like to see is going to have some sort of heterosexual sex scene. I go to movies with my teenage kids, and really don't like that I have to be concerened, when the movie has a rating of PG-13. It's embarrassing to all of us. Maybe when they're older, but even when I go with my in laws, or my almost 82 year old dad. It's just uncomfortable. I don't really care to see two men having at it. It's not at all a turn on, and that's my opinion. That said, I'm not in the least homophobic. But just as they are able to voice their distaste of hetero scenes of intimacy, so should I or anyone else have the same freedom of opinion accorded with regards to homosexual sex scenes. Just my humble opinion.
I just thought it might be an interesting topic, to spark some lively debate....

    I could not possibly care less what people do in their sex lives, but I am so damn tired of having homosexuality thrown in my face. I am particularly tired of movies and tv shows that make a point that the most loving and wonderful couple is always homosexual, just as I am tired of seeing the white male portrayed as a bumbling idiot. Neither are societal norms!

    Agreed, I'm not homophobic either, and I support legal equality for gays, including gay marriage. However, I don't enjoy gay sex scenes in what I watch. Sure, I can fast forward through those scenes if they aren't on broadcast television, but I'd rather not have to do that.
