| I agree (and agree about "outing" being bad)... I was just commenting this way because I think it was quick to jump to the "gossip" conclusion about where this thread is going... i don't think you can quite have the "it's great that it matters so little that he doesn't have to say it" feeling AND the "out gay people need to be visible, and closeted ones should come out as soon as they feel it's safe to" at the same time with someone like Ben Platt. If he is out and proud in his private life but not mentioning it or even covering up in public, that contradicts the idea of how much it does matter. Any actor of course has the right to deal with their life and career and public persona however they want, but that doesn't change that with the LGBT celebrities (both publicly out and not), it matter a lot. But it's a fairly moot point since Platt is out in public. However I have not seen him be very open about it, which i guess was the point of people asking and coming up with an interview with it mentioned and a theater red carpet interview with 10 seconds of him mentioning a male ex. |
