I'm glad you're against the discrimination of homosexuals. As for the flaunting, I haven't come across many gay people who act like the Fab Five or other gay Hollywood personalities. There are always a few but I think it's personality, not actually being homosexual, that makes them flaunt it. I have many gay friends and collegues whom you wouldn't know they were gay unless it came up in conversation. Not all blondes are ditzy, but a few ditzy blondes got famous, Hollywood held onto that stereotype, and now we're all labeled dumb.
