I do rather love any interviewers whom art Anti lbtq. Such interviewers art rather the Real Winners.
@Kiranjit Kaur RentagobRana do you enjoy putting people down because you feel sad about yourself, no one has time for your homophobic comments and views, so do us all a favour and shut up.
At the end of the day people have the right to love who they want and to live their truths, homophobia doesn't deserve to exist in our society
@@kiranjitKaur61 What is wrong with you? You are so hateful for no good reason.
Here's one:
The interview with Felicia Geiter sp? AND JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP ON CNN? WHEN SHE KEPT HAMMERING JOHN ON HIS SONG ' HURTS SO GOOD.'
JOHN TOOK OFF HIS MIC AND WALKED WALKED OFF THE SET.
BRILLIANT.
the fact that caitlyn jenner is against gay marriage absolutely fascinates me considering she was married to a woman for like 20 years
I really suspect that the only reason Caitlyn came into being is because a desperate old man wanted so badly to be relevant again. You picking up what I'm laying down here?
She's also transphobic.
She's also transphobic.
She can't escape her privileged rich white guy roots in her own mind.
Bruce knows he's still a man. 🤷
"So, you're a non-practising bisexual?" 🤦♀️
Is he comparing sexuality to witchcraft or something like that?
Honestly, its just disgusting
Bi people deserve better
Playing off of your witchcraft comment, I wish the reply was:
_“Practicing? It’s not witchcraft, despite being absolutely magical.”_
SEXUAL WITCHCRAFT
@@AirstripOne-nd4du if you're not doing something it means you aren't practicing it. Take an English class.
like seriously do all bi people have to be in a throuple or something, I'm single does that mean I'm asexual? it's such a dumb take on sexuality BUT look the dude is old as dirt so I guess the fact he isn't screaming about the devil is a net positive XD
"Why defend yourself against something that's not offensive." So very well put, love this quote!
It is rather off-putting indeed. Akin unto thy person rather.
@@kiranjitKaur61 …
@@kiranjitKaur61 1) Who the hell actually talks like that outside of the damn Bible? 2) You CHOSE to be offended. That is a CHOICE you made. You could just as easily have chosen to accept, or to simply move on and live your own life and let others live theirs. But no. You CHOSE to be a homophobic asshole. And a pretentious one, too, with your "indeed" and your "thyself." How about this? GET THEE HENCE.
@@kiranjitKaur61 you speak in riddles. How’s it working out for you?
@@Lindasurprise No. I didst write rather straightforwardly.
Saying that you’re not bisexual if you’re in a “straight” presenting relationship is like saying that single people are all automatically asexual. Nonsense. It’s based on attraction, not relationship status.
People don't get it. There are so many people with such a cage around their brains. They can't think further than to end of their fingertips it seems.
So sad. Thankfully many of them just leave it be and stay neutral. But those are still not helping and still not enough. Sounds impossible, but... too many are anti instead of neutral....and the neutral would be such a help if they became ally.
The trouble is that the LGBT community wear their sexuality like a bill board. Emblazoning it all over themselves and shoving it in everyone's faces ALL the time. Straight people do not define themselves by their sexuality. It's a private thing. Why can't the alphabet community keep theirs private too.
We are so weary of it.
Exactly. You don't stop being bisexual simply because you're in a heterosexual relationship. Heterosexuality is part of bisexuality, after all.
I love the comment!
@@maxsupernovaNo it's not lol
Tom Hardy going, "Are you asking me about *my* sexuality? Why?" is an amazing response. He's polite, while not playing any games and effectively avoiding the question.
It’s clear he gets it, it’s a weird thing to ask and people need to learn to stay out of other people’s business
I spare a little sympathy for the person asking the question, though. It appears that there was a potentially-well-meaning question there to begin with, but Hardy's bemusement (and the fact that he called it "inelegant") and then shutting down the revised version may not detract entirely from what was being attempted.
I actually thought he was offended to be asked about it, which to me signifies he is unhappy to be thought of as a gay and not an allie at all
@@pnrg1354right, the question was whether he felt it was hard to talk to media about your own sexuality, not whether he was gay.
@@GabyPivet Tom hardy has already stated he's been with men. I think he's like me and goes for people he thinks are attractive.
I'm bisexual and married to a woman. Just because im married to a woman, doesn't mean im not bi. I like both men and women
@@aimeejo3405 that's not even remotely close to what Justin said.
You misread that
Same ppl really think depending on who we date our sexuality shifts. That’s not how it works.
I really love when they try to convince me that if I've been monogamous married to someone for 25 years, it's because my bisexuality was "a phase"... I still find people of both sexes attractive
@@aimeejo3405 that’s not even what he said
"Why defend yourself against something that isn't offensive."
I didn't care one way or another about Johnny Galecki, but now I absolutely respect him.
I have always respected him and now even more. I think with him it's just one of those things where an actor actually isn't doing anything to cause attention and the media has nothing better to do so they just like to talk crap or make up things. But like he said why defend yourself against something that isn't offensive.
Yeah but you don’t need to accept something that isn’t true
What someones child identity s as is none of my business! And I'm not trying to make it my business.
I've always loved Johnny Galecki, he's a sweetheart.
Knowing next to nothing about his personal life, I immediately think of his friendship with Sara Gilbert from Roseanne, and how in his youth he probably witnessed people giving her a hard time about her sexuality. Maybe that experience played a big role in informing how he responds to such questions and intrusions.
I never understood (and probably never will) how someone's sexuality is somebody else's business.
They'll never admit it, but the usual suspects are absolutely *fascinated* about what goes on in the privacy of other people's bedrooms.
I mean, unless you're looking to date them yea it's nobody's business
Yet many 'proudly' want everyone to know and accept their sexuality. Puzzling, isn't it?
that's different@@RS54321 and you know it so don't be an smat ass. Because they *want* you to know; they're letting you in. But people assuming someone's sexuality based on their mannerisms and looks; and than DEMANDING to know to ease thier curiosity *NOT* okay.
@@RS54321 - Accepting someone's sexuality is common decency. Not doing so is being a bigoted scumbag.
As a man who loves unicorns, I applaud Ariana Grande's impressive calm during this interview. I would have just left.
A real man. Finally. 🦄
As a man of Elohim, I find it ludicrous that this question even posed a threat. I also find that people are only threatened when they feel insecure or feel guilty about something. Truth. Shalom, L'hllel, Amen.
Same, though I'm a woman, not a man. Those guys seemed like real sexist jerks. I don't know if I could have tolerated them. She was very impressive. And unicorns are boss. I wish more people liked them. It's so stupid to make something mythological gendered. I've always liked dragons, Spider-man, the X-men, super heroes. Never made me a boy. A lot of people get stupid about supposedly girly things though. I can't wait for the rest of the culture to catch up.
I just find their comments were so stupid, like something a child would say that it makes you laugh more than get angry. At least that is what happend to me when I heard them. And I feel she was holding back laughter a little bit too.
Honestly, men bashing other men for liking "girly" things is silly, as much as it is silly to bash women for liking "manly" things.
Hobbies and interests shouldn't be gendered, and who does it reeks of insecurity.
My late husband would reply to anyone who asked him if he was gay: "Why, are you lonely?"
LOVE!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Okay I love this!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 love it !!!!!
Bravo
Here's another with a Barbara Walters' interview, many years ago, with Richard Gere. She asked him if it bothered him that people supposed he was gay after he was in the play: BENT. His answer was simply, "no." As Barbara looked at him expecting him to say more, he looked at her and said: "Barbara, there's nothing wrong with being gay."
Oh damn. My respect for Gere has gone up.
I usually had great respect for Barbara, but I can never forgive her for the way she went after Ricky Martin in that infamous interview in 2000. Being gay still wasn't socially acceptable and she knew that. She wanted to out him. Or rather she wanted him to out himself in her interview. Keeping in mind this was only 6 to 7 years after DADT was implemented if that gives you any indication of where we were. He made it clear he didn't want to talk about his sexuality but she pressed it. I understand that was her job as an interviewer but in private matters like that it was none of hers or the public's business.
Barbara was a tool for Hollywood anyway. She was the same type of person that a straight white man would be, but in a dress.
@@nomizakBetween these examples and her sticking up for the Weinsteins of the world in that Corey Feldman interview on The View, I can proudly say I have ZERO respect for Barbara Walters at this point.
@nunyabidness2750 that is an opinion, not a fact. Please don't assume others are wrong because of your beliefs or opinions. Love is unconditional
.
Back in the 1920s a young Joan Crawford became best friends with a gay actor called William Haines. He refused to keep his sexuality secret and so the studios ruined his career. Crawford, by this point a star on the rise, stood by him and helped him become a very successful and sought after interior designer. Joan called William and his partner the happiest couple in Hollywood.
Thats actually really really sweet.
Caitlyn Jenner is the most anti-trans transgender person I have ever heard of.
So true 😂
She killed someone when she was still Bruce Jenner.
Caitlyn Jenner is the one person I know of that their own hypocrisy literally looks themselves in the mirror.
OMG! Right!
She's not even an ally, she's just an antagonist
I've always liked Johnny Galecki, but that response.. "why defend yourself against something that's not offensive?" --amazing. I'm a fan all over again.
I always had a crush on him too, now I'm out the closet and I've heard him say that it's rather amplified 😂
Ha ha ha ha! Decent people are the ones who are NOT offended. Immature people are the ones who are. @nunyabidness2750
Plenty of reasons, those non-offensive being nutjobs for instance. Of all sorts. i would have said it's nuts to have a bunker, It still is, more and more reasonable, that is.. not anywhere near us for big events, but tornadoes and such..they're coming soon.
I never was a fan of his before but I am now after that quote. Loved it
It's like I just said above in my comment, if Johnny was gay, which again, is nothing to do with us, it would have had been changed in The Big Bang Theory with Leonard being gay instead of marrying and having a child with Penny.
Love Melissa Etheridge's quote: "The rights of the minority should NEVER be voted on by the majority." Such truth. That's how prejudice and discrimination is made into systemic oppression. And becomes a cycle.
That's Thomas Jefferson's quote.
@@0LadyV0Yeah, she said that. I believe her and it makes me wonder how American came to be to extreme in anything that's not a majority. Like...if the founders of this country had it all straight, and wanted to end slavery etc....what when wrong?
I am not American. And I am not proud of my own country, not even a little. But this country is sooo young! You would think it would be the most innovative and modern country of all. Free of labels and judgement to what is natural
It's idiotic...
So you are for make different rights and laws for people because... What, their skin color ? Sexual orientation ? Perceived genre ?
Don't you see THIS IS racism and will make things even worst ?
Same rules for everyone, but with respect and understanding for everyone.
Going "they and us" is already take a bad and slimy path. We are all freaking HUMANS.
@@lisastenzel5713 Morons like Trump, Elon Musk, etc. no doubt.
@@lisastenzel5713
Sounds like you need a quick history lesson.
Basically, in 1787 when Our Constitution was written, we were just trying to get established as a country apart from England. Not everything was settled that year.
80 years later we finally went to war to abolish slavery and become the united states that we are today.

As a gay guy myself, it's satisfying to hear them calling out homophobic and standing up on our behalf including with Chris Evans
It is rather weird. Akin unto them themselves and thine own sort. Rather.
@@kiranjitKaur61 you have no life. You keep replying to everyone’s comment with your homophobia
I believe Chris Evans's brother is gay, actually. He's a supportive dude,
Chris is definitely an ally. Also because he’s really close to his brother Scott who’s gay.
There is no such thing as "homophobia" or "transphobia". Y'all have been over using those words where they have lost all actual meaning.
"You're not confused if you're bisexual. It's not confusing at all. For me, it's quite the opposite."

Years ago I made a post with a picture of Poison Ivy kissing Harley Quinn and made a comment saying I'm Ivy looking for her Harley. A guy told me I was just "confused." So I made a second post coming out officially as bisexual and made sure to include that I definitely was not confused about how I feel or who I'm attracted to, just confused as to why it took me so long to open up about it.
@@peanutbuttertoast Bruh.
@@No_Conference What are you confused about?
@@silvermainecoons3269 well I’m pretty sure the word bruh is sometimes used as a neutral term. It could mean anything. Also, I don’t like Ivy or Harley, I find them annoying. That last thing is just an comic book character opinion though, so don’t take that into consideration.
She is rather a weirdo. Clearly.
I really don’t understand how people STILL don’t get that your sexuality doesn’t just change from bisexual to straight or gay depending on who you’re with. You’re always bisexual.
They are confusing your overall sexuality with your specific sexual actions. I don't understand why they aren't able to grasp it either. Black and white thinking probably, which is a problem with many people's thinking.
To be fair a lot of gay /lesbian / queer people have used straight relationships to cover their identity, come out then are in only same sex partnerships afterwards.
I can see how bi erasure and confusion can happen.
But if someone is clearly saying "I'm bi" then just be "ok, cool" then move on. It's not that big a deal what someone's preferences are.
I don’t even understand what he thinks a practicing bisexual is? I’d have to be poly, right?
@otter011 Well, they're a practising straight person, right? Wife and mistresses right?
@@kittikats Considering that the question came from Larry King, who had been married and divorced close to a dozen times, he could have been asked if he's in a committed relationship. It's all relative.
Johnny Galecki dated Sara Gilbert and towards the end, She confided in him and stoodby her side and kept it a secret until she was ready. That is very admirable!
My dumbass confused Jonny galecki for Dan Levy. Both really handsome

I respect Whoopi for apologizing to Johnny Galecki for asking that question. She literally said she should've read the question first. Not many interviewers would say that.
I agree. And she did it on the air. Telling viewers that it was an inappropriate question and a mistake
@mangos2888 right? No hesitation, no one had to make a big deal to make her feel like she needed to pretend she took it seriously. She realized it on her own and addressed it immediately.
Isn't the bigger issue that she is paid an ungodly amount and doesn't bother to know what she is going to ask until she reads it?
@ReivecS Maybe she usually does and ran late that day? There are any number of reasons why. She could've blamed everyone under the sun but she didn't. She took it on the chin and apologized on the spot for her mistake.

I will respect you as a person and I couldn't care less about your sexuality. Stop forcing it into my face.

If you have great personality traits, I'll respect you and might even befriend you. Otherwise not, and it'll have nothing to do with your sexuality.

@@Emmanueldm What are you even responding to?
I said I'm not interested in anyone's sexuality, don't force me to hear about it. I don't need to "do" anything other than suffering through a whole month when sexuality is shovelled into my face constantly. Moreover, some people seem to have no other identity than their sex life. I'm sick of hearing about it.
When I meet you, or anyone else, I don't care about what you do in your bedroom. Not even a bit. The world doesn't revolve around your sex life.
You're so, so much more than your sexuality. At least, I hope you are.
@@verabolton We're very aware that we're more than sexuality. But because of that part of us, we're discriminated against, which is why we have a whole month dedicated to that part of our identities.
I'm a 63 year old white straight female, I live on a planet with over 7 billion other people. For me to think everyone should behave the same as I do is ludacris! We should just live our lives and let others do the same.
and it would be boring anyway! Who the hell wants to hang out with billions of *_themselves?!_* That sounds terrible 😂
@crashh-course it's such a boring way of living your life too. Can you imagine never meeting all the cool people you've met that were just so drastically different from you; the one's that showed you the true range of what humans can be? Maybe it's just me, but I tend to learn more from people that are different from me than I do from people that are more similar. If I had never met any of those people.. I feel like I'd almost certainly be a shittier, more boring person lol. There's a lot of thoughts I'd never have had, perspectives I'd never have heard, and feelings I'd never have felt.
"we're too many people to all be the same" lol I really like the way you said that
True it is Ludacris to expect everyone to be and act the same but let's get honest if there's not a girl and a boy there are NO people.
As of last year, we're officially past 8 billion.

"If you have an egg and you open it from the outside, only death comes out. But if the egg opens from the inside, life comes out" - I love it
Ricky Martin couldn't have explained the dangers of outing LGBTQIA+ folks against their will any better.
That was very tender! I'm glad Barbara Walters apologized later, but she has been pretty ruthless and some of her interviews. I recently saw the one she did with Dolly Parton, and it just made me so sad and angry.
I love this since egg is term for new people in the LBTQ like their coming out of there shell and I think that's great
@@francespt8809 Isn't it a trans-specific term, usually?
@@joebloe4734 Generally speaking, yes, it is used more towards trans people as it's to do with an egg slowly cracking until they come out of their shell.
All most people may know they're trans based on how they may act and what they're into. But people also don't pry and try to force that out of them.
I'm a bisexual man myself, and what pisses me off is people asking me am I more into men or women, or saying there's no such thing. In fact, I was telling a former friend about a guy I was into at the time, and she had the nerve to say, "You're totally gay." I mean, I like to joke with my friends when they say I'm the "gayest straight guy, and the straightest gay guy." At the end of the day, I am me, I love and accept myself for who I am, so why does it matter to you how I swing?
It's because you're not exactly like "them". Plain and simple.
It always amazes me that some people don't seem to understand the idea of falling in love with a person. Like, would you ask a straight person why they choose the person they are currently with as opposed to their best friend? Wouldn't they just assume it's the person they love the most (ands that loved them back) that they choose as a partner?
Yes because some people love ancient boxes, you should fit in one out of two boxes prescribed by religion, norms or whatever so they cannot imagine person not fitting in one box... there are not enough education out there to explain this outdated thinking belongs to ancient times when people live in a caves and marvel at sight of fire...
Trust me not all of us heterosexual people are like that, but yes, we do have our good share of idiots. I would apologize on their behalf but I don't think they deserve it.
I just remembered once being in the mall with my daughter and we over heard someone saying, they should just pick a side because there was no such thing and I very loudly said to my daughter. "I think they're just jealous because they have more options than we do." Of course, the we part was for me because my daughter is A sexual.
"Why defend yourself against something that's not offensive?" is the BEST quote. 👏👏👏
As an openly gay man, why the hell does someone else’s sexuality or what they choose to do with another CONSENTING adult matter so damn much to straight people? I can’t wrap my head around that. There would be less problems in the world if people chose kindness and love instead of hate and/or bigotry. This video made me happy. The responses from these celebrities that I credit for giving me the strength to be who i am, makes me feel so warm inside. I understand if the questions are coming from a point of curiosity and actually TRYING to understand, but when those questions are coming from a hateful place, thats where i get confused.
With a lot of these inteviews, I honestly believe they were coming from a place of "shock value" or "gotcha" journalism. These interviews are the predecessors of "click-bait" and the garbage we see on the news now days. Shit is straight up disgusting, but I'm glad there are some celebrities out there willing to shut them down. We'll see if it continues...
I'm a straight man and I was thinking the same as you. Just try to have kindness and love towards your fellow people and let them love eachother. It's really not that hard. I was also very happy after seing this video. Stay golden. ✌️🌈
@@hakaniwar8848 same to you!
Agreed. People (especially conservatives) need to just mind their own business. Worry about yourself.
The attitude you describe has been part of our "human nature" for most of our existence on our world, and then add the misguided teaching of a certain Church, and we get questions like these posed and shot down by the celebrities. Granted, if the Church hadn't been the way it was, we probably wouldn't have the issues we're having today. They, in the early days (who incidentally had some of the most perverted and despicable characters in leadership roles) were the ones who began demonizing LGBTQIA+ people and actually forced other cultures to follow their lead on this and other issues. In the years since, it's just snowballed and there was even a time that even some Hetero people were questioned on their private practices.

@@kiranjitKaur61I do rather hate that Heath...died so young. There, I finished your sentence.
@@7thlittleleopard7True. That movie was a cultural force, and it had a positive effect on gay representation and visibility, so even the haters were forced to contend with it in one way or another.
I have massive respect for people who stood up for our community in the 70s, 80s 90s. People like Madonna, David Bowie, and especially Judy Garland because at least, nowadays you have an army of celebrities and fans coming to your defense and standing up together with you but back in the days they were alone. They had balls of steel. Huge props to people like Madonna for contributing to gay acceptance in hollywood. What she did at her time was truly revolutionary.
Madonna didn't do anything before 1990. A lot of people were doing things for the LGBTQ long before her.
I find Bowie incredibly inspiring. It was difficult enough for gay women to come out back then but at least the feminist movement had provided a little bit of sheler. For a man to come out back then, especially a male celebrity was an incredibly brave thing to do. The fact that he did so with zero fear and such style was amazing. Although not directly part of it, he was such an important figure in the early Gay Liberation movement and remained a staunch ally all his life. The cover of his Man Who Sold the World album, showing Bowie with long hair and a dress, reclining on a chaise long, was only a couple of years after the decriminalisation of homosexuality. Hunky Dory's album cover was even more androgynous and included songs like Queen Bitch and Oh You Pretty Things. Then of course there was Ziggy Stardust. It's easy nowadays to forget just how controversial, outrageous and scandalous this was at that time. Homosexuality wasn't something that a minority were anti. It was deeply engrained in the whole of society and the bigotry and hatred was on another level. The notion of equal rights was a distant fantasy... and yet there was David, happily not giving a fuck, very publicly! :)
You got social media era which is a major boost for LGBTQ people
Not music artists, but i love the story of support from Bea Arthur and Estelle Getty
Why do women have to have balls of steel to be classed as strong women. why not vagina of titanium.
"Non-Practicing Bisexuals" would be a great band name.
You’re so right omg

I like what Ricky Martin said about the egg. An egg forcibly cracked open produces nothing but death, but an egg that opens on its own accord creates a beautiful life (I’m paraphrasing). I think it’s a great analogy for many aspects of a persons life. Forcing someone to reveal their true self can be devastating, whatever that truth may be.
I'm a straight dude. I felt honoured when a few friends felt it was safe to come out to me.
Don't agree he was just avoiding the question for his own benefit. It was a fair question. Now look at what happened since.
The analogy is even more symbolic now that the word "egg" is used by the trans community to refer to a closeted trans person
As someone who has been outed in a way that was traumatic for me, I really appreciated Ricky Martin’s metaphor of the egg.
i’m sorry :(

I am sorry for the experience you had and I also found Ricky Martin’s metaphor beautiful and very true.
I had a crush on a former coworker and really wanted to find out about his sexuality. I felt we had such a great rapport, but I didn't know how to feel not knowing if he's interested or not. Still, I never asked.
Eventually, he left our company. We went out for coffee and he told me that he's gay, and he'd rather not everyone knows since he's still closeted. We remain good friends today. I am learning so much about the LGBTQ community because of him. It's a valuable relationship in my life.
I've found the best thing to do is just ask them out and face the rejection if they say no haha.

I am a heterosexual male from the midwest. Not married only because neither me or my bisexual partner believe in marriage anymore. My respect and admiration and well wishes to all in the LGBTQ community!!! Love is the only solution!!!
heterosexuality is a 19th century invention that was used to explain how straight people are different from what we all just call queerness today.
the word queer has a longer usage in the english language than the word normal, which comes from maths.
straight was originally appropriated from the trans community as a word that was originally used derisively, in-community, towards people who went back in the closet to get family support.

Every time Chris Evans is outspoken and stands on the right side so openly, I am reminded of just how brilliant Marvel's casting of him as Captain American in 2010 (I think that's when he was cast and started shooting "The First Avenger") truly was.

His brother is gay so he has a personal connection to the issue. That shouldn't be the only factor, but he probably has been asked a similar question for years.
@@AnthonyJMurph I have a feeling the answer would have been similar regardless of what his brother's sexuality was. I think it's apparent that his brother colors his stance, just like having gay and transgender friends colors my stance and how much I will sound off at bigoted family members at functions (family may be blood, but I've chosen my friends...and I've come to realize in my middle age that the family you choose should be more important to you than most of your blood relations). But I have been outspoken that I don't think anyone's sexuality or gender should give anyone else one iota of issue since I was a teenager. If you really believe in "live and let live" then that means you at least tolerate things you find distasteful, regardless of whatever some charlatan tells you as he tries to rip 10% of your gross income away from you a week every Sunday. Sadly most "Christians" apparently don't understand that, or need to actually read their New Testament every so often.
@@AnthonyJMurph oh, I agree. I'm just saying most of us at the age of 9 (that weren't submerged in the toxic bath of Southern Baptist bible school until our ability to think freely was drowned) understood that hating someone for what was silly nonsense. [By saying "what", I in no way intend to demean anyone, but using what as a way of comparing immutable traits of a person, like sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, etc.] Who you are (how you think, how you act) matters far more, and that is something you can change and that will change as you have new experiences, meet new people and see new things. Who you are should change and broaden as you grow older. Why so many people cloister themselves and hate or fear those who are different simply because they don't look the same, have the same language, or "deviate" from the "natural order", is a question that I doubt I will ever be given a satisfactory answer for. Because it's unsatisfactory to hate or fear because you don't understand something. In that case, you should endeavor to understand, and at least tolerate it if understanding still eludes you.
@@AnthonyJMurph That is true but lets face it, unfortunately not everyone is supportive of a sibling who is part of the LGBTQ+ Community.
About a million years ago, Maury Povich had a trans woman on his show and remarked that she was, in so many words, one of the "better" looking ones he'd seen. She told him that the statement was "unkind," pointing out that there is a variety of looks among all people, and saying that about her denigrated others.
She was quite right. Imagine saying that about women in general! "Well, you're definitely one of the better looking women I've had on as a guest." Jesus, was that meant to be an awkward attempt at flirting?
But was he wrong? Looking at the mess on TikTok I'd say no he wasn't. How you walking around with a beard and deep voice and bulge talking about you're a woman? That's a mess right there and there are too many of those types.

Yep. I haven’t come out to anyone except my best friend as bisexual because I’ve been primarily in straight relationships.
My family wouldn’t be able to understand the nuances of being bisexual.
I'm outed to my friends and family and they took it well, but I struggled with the LGBTQ+ community a lot. I've never been with a girl and have a boyfriend. I'm often labled as " a hetero who wants attantion". It's so annoying.
@@yoongiswndrlnd Same. The issue that I experienced though is that some queer women see it as a bad sign if you're not outed (to your family).

You have to understand how much progress has happened with our community.
During 2005 (when the movie was released), being gay was considered an insult, a freak, and a taboo. So when Jake and Heath, two world-star actors, portrayed such a bittersweet film, it was groundbreaking.
@@colt9836 The movie ending was not a "product of it's time" in any way, that statement is diminishing, as if the director would make a different film today because we live in a different time. The film could be made today, or a hundred years from now and be identical because it was a period piece, and further was based upon a short story originally published in 1993. The story is set in 1963 which was a much, much more dangerous period for gay men to exist. Source: I've lived all of those years. The movie was still groundbreaking, but such a film would never have seen widespread release or support from any studio whatsoever if it was even attempted to be made in 1963. The fact that it was released to overwhelming critical acclaim is the only relevance that 2005 has to the film.
It's so sad that watching it felt illegal to you. Good that you dared to nevertheless and it could help or comfort you in any way. I hope you are feeling more free now.

As a bisexual, I get annoyed when people say “oh you’re gay now” or “oh you’re straight now” because of who a bisexual is dating. It’s like this. A werewolf isn’t a wolf when in wolf form and a human when they aren’t transformed, they are always werewolves, no matter what form they are in. Bisexuality is kind of like that, just it’s way cooler that being a wolf.
How Barbara Walters maintained stardom is beyond me. Most of her interviews I have seen have been of bullying tactics. She needed to be called out and stop being hailed as this great journalist. Her interview with Corey Feldman sealed any respect I ever had for her.
She was incredibly rude to Dolly Parton and her “poor upbringing”.
She was an amazing journalist who was able to help crack open hypocrisy and ill intent and lay it bare for the public to see. Unfortunately, as she spent increasingly more of her time on “puff piece” celebrity & “human interest” pieces, for which her instincts and her learned skills were very ill-suited and, often, counterproductive. The skills you need to get Tom Cruise to relax on camera and express his true emotions and thoughts are very much not the skills you would use to get the executive of a cigarette company to admit that their product is harmful when used as intended.
I’m sure it provided her with a very good income, but her transition from journalism into the personality interviewer role has significantly damaged her legacy, in my opinion.
Journalists ferret out the truth. Usually out of people that don’t want to share it... about controversial, and this, interesting subjects.
I was once interviewed by a radio reporter and he was trying to get me to say outlandish things. I’m not a nutbar, so I said, “of course not!”. I didn’t make it onto the radio for that segment.
She was a pioneer in her field. Very ambitious, and sometimes her need to be hard-edged caused her to overstep. I remember watching an interview she did with Doris Day, where she asked Day to respond to a listing of her costars with a word about how she felt about them. She got to Ronald Reagan, and Day said "a nice man." Well, Walters was incredulous: "C'mon!" She wanted to have some sensational headline grabbing quote about her costars. I don't really blame Walters for feeling like she had to go that route, because journalism can be a very competitive business, but she could go a little overboard. I respect her, though, for what she accomplished as a woman in a tough business.
I recall when she and Gene Shallit were interviewing Burt Reynolds, and she asked a question on her clipboard that Gene wasn’t comfortable asking. “Burt, everyone knows that you have been in a relationship with Dinah Shore for quite some time now; you must love her very much. Why don’t you marry her?” His response: “Well that’s a stupid question. Why don’t you get a get a divorce?”. I swear she bit her lip, and said, “Well that’s fair, why don’t we move on?” ( My mother couldn’t stop laughing …..)
‘Why defend yourself against something that’s not offensive “ ~ what a great response to such an asinine question!
I know that it should be a given that celebrities are supportive, but some of these people while I was watching I was like "oh, they support me??" and I genuinely almost cried, this made my day so much better
Not really a comment on homophobic interviewers, but Dan Levy's comment "I have no patience for homophobia" in response to how he wrote Patrick and David's story in Schitt's Creek always stands out to me

I really don’t understand why Barbara Walter’s was ever considered a great interviewer. She has such an extensive history of being invasive, insensitive, ignorant, and just straight up rude.
I completely agree with you. Her reputation was based in sensationalism. Terrible interviewer.
[nods] the whole "even the journalist" thing made me go, Excuse Me? Uh, No. maybe once upon a time back when she was starting out, she could have worn that title. but in This age, No.
she was an invasive, stereotypical, Karen-esque, white woman with delusions of grandeur.
Many times those are the exact qualities that make a great interviewer... even ignorance,, willfully ignoring the sensitivity of certain topics and questions, can be a benefit to successful interviewing.
That's what the media wants. She digs in and gets results. She's good at being invasive and getting a response.
She's doing it for the networks.
Back then you’re great if you can get a scoop and dig up dirt by asking “hard hitting questions.”
I feel like nobody really talks about how pushy of an interviewer Barbara Walters actually was…
Yeah she totally was pushy
She wasn't pushy. She was a bully. Her interview with Cory Feldman is disgraceful.
It's funny because she was known for asking softball questions and kissed the rear end of powerful people, like when she asked the dictator of Cuba, "if you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?"
Walters has asked some horrendous questions.
A lot of hosts are. Oprah can do no wrong for a lot of people and while I don't dislike her, I couldn't stand watching her interviews because she would interrupt her guests b4 they could finish answering her question.
I love how Whoopi was just as thrown off and confused about the question on the card and then apologized for having had to ask such a stupid question in the first place!

Honestly, this video would’ve been much better if we could hear more of the actual interviews & a lot less of the voiceover about the interviews.
Truth is, people can't help but speculate about someone's sexuality. Even as a straight man, I've had people question my sexuality. I haven't had a girlfriend in years. I'm also still a virgin. One guy I worked with would try and hook me up with women I wasn't interested in. When I said I wasn't interested, he would accuss me of being gay. He actually said it in a malicious manner.
It really is simple: Don't be so damn nosey when it comes to people's sexual preferences. They don't owe you an explanation in that regard. If they wanna talk about it, they will. If they don't, they don't have to.
this applies to trans individuals, but i think the basic principle applies:
are they trans?
are you willing to grab them to find out? if no, then it doesn't matter. if yes, then you're a bigger problem than they are.
to modify it:
are they gay?
are you willing to invade their privacy to see who they choose to sleep with? if no, then it doesn't matter. if yes, we should be calling the cops on you.
I was single for a long time before finally meeting my husband and I am shy so a lot of people thought I was a lesbian. I never really paid much attention to what other people thought though.
When I was much younger and still looked great I worked in a busy bar. I'm also a naturally smiley and friendly person. Of course I'd get hit on a lot. I have lost count the number of times men who came on to me and I (tried to kindly) rebuffed would either hiss at me or loudly shout "Lesbian" or "Gay b*****", and the likes.
Sometimes, and bless those dudes, other men in the bar would tell them off. I didn't need them too, but I thought it was kind of them.
For some reason, at my Junior High in the mid 80s, sexuality became a big deal, with everyone feeling they had the right to ask you about it. Many times I was asked if I was gay, and I simply responded, "Don't worry, you're not my type," whether the asker was male or female. Younger generations are getting called snowflakes simply because they won't put up with this kind of BS: asking personal questions of people you aren't close to is NOT OK. Don't ask gender, sexuality, are you pregnant, do you have kids, how are you disabled, etc. MIND YA OWN BUSINESS and just so kindness and respect to EVERYONE.

Sounds like you were in monogamous relationship, regardless of sexual preference. Otherwise known as a healthy relationship. Just because someone is attracted to the same sex doesn't mean they expect you to let them step out as long as it's with someone of the same sex. I've been married to a bi woman for 23 years and she's never expected me to be okay with her messing around with other women. Just because someone is bi doesn't mean they expect their partner to be okay with them cheating on them, even if it's with someone of the same sex.

(I live in a Bible Belt county in the South) He started saying I was going to hell, what I was doing was wrong, ect ect. I just laughed and told him he wasn't the first person to say that. When he asked me why I didn't decide to "end this phase" I laughed again. I told him, "Well when are you gonna listen to what your mama always told you and mind your own business? What I'm doing isn't hurting anybody. You're just mad that I'm not into old men like you." I got to watch his stunned and angry face in silence before I paid for my items and left the store. It was glorious. 😂
Lol i like your comeback to him after he said that to you! People have said that to me in the past (I am a gay man) when they would say that I am going to hell I would always tell them "save me a seat ill see you there" lmao 🤣
After reading this, three words come to mind. "Like a boss". Well played, man.
"You're going to Hell!" - Them
"Great! See you there! Oh, I won't save you a seat at the cool kids table, not with THAT attitude." - Me
Never in my life have I seen that shade of purple outside a grape or a plum.
I wish you well on your transition. I hope you get the support you need. Always remember you are best placed to know whether you are male, female, or something else. Negative comments from other people reveal something about them and nothing about you.
I get that grossed out feeling when two men or two women kiss, or when the left pushes to murder babies in the womb, or when they push to have body parts cut of children. You know, actual disgusting things.
Judy Garland, Jane Fonda, Health Ledger, Elton John, Johnny Galecki, David Bowie. All amazing people with such compassion and care for others.
Laverne Cox... I love her to bits. I said so out loud to workmates once and they immediately asked me if I'm gay.
I said yes, I'd be gay for her, and thanked them for acknowledging that trans women, are women. 😘😘
I would love to see a response that turned things around, saying to the interviewer: "How about we talk about you, your body, and your love life?" But these are great, and I appreciate them all.
The LGBTQ+ community are a bunch of mooks😒
Marriage is between two people who love each other.
Period, full stop.😊
or financial purposes.
@@azury21sameasxbl92 nahh that relationship will end in a divorce once the money is secured 😂
Marriage is between a MAN (a Real Man *) and a Woman. Rather. *

Ryans Reynolds saying "I'm not a monster" made my day.

@@jessiebouclier4776 I think she must be very bored and lonely and the trolling she is doing is the only way she can get any attention she so desperately wants.
@@kiranjitKaur61 Ugh to you. 😂

Ryan Reynolds seems like one of the most down to earth people, I honestly would love to sit down with him and just talk about stuff
Ricky Martin's analogy of the egg--absolutely brilliant!! I have never heard that anywhere else, and cannot think of a better description of forcing someone into/out of a situation prior to their readiness and consent.
I love RyanReynolds. Reluctantly, at first, because I hate loving overly beautiful people because I doubt beautiful people are scrutinized enough, but the more I hear him speak I am shocked that such a cute man can be smart, kind, thoughtful and overall rad. DAMN YOU FATE! The whole package?! The looks and insides? Canada DELIVERED.
As a Canadian he is truly the best
This is meant to be silly, so please take it as such, but I choose to assume that he has micro issues downstairs as a result of how perfect he is otherwise. I'll never know for sure and it doesn't really matter so long as I believe it. No one can be so perfect LOL.
If the day ever comes where he is on the news for being a terrible predator all this time, we officially give up on the human race and call it a day.
@@KrysUnplugged he does have severe anxiety that can form who you are. And gives a lot of compassion to others.
Deadpool and Colossus ♥️✨
