Ellen Page comes out as gay

'Of course she's gay' based on what logic? It's implying that gay people act a certain way or look a certain way. If she was spotted with women several times, that might make it less of a jump, but there's nothing about her that should make someone say it's obvious she was gay.

Some gay people do look and act a certain way. She's got a feisty attitude and her tomboy appearance might give people that impression she's gay. It might be unfair to assume that but offensive? But you know what they say about assumptions.
 
I wish we didn't live in a world where these grand speeches and mass twitter/facebook alerts are necessary and we could just go "Oh? Good for her I guess." So silly that it's still a perceived big deal.

Has anyone made a Kitty Gay Pryde joke yet? Edit: FUCK it's even on this page.

You have no point. You just weren't paying attention.
 
NO!!!! She was my hollywood crush!!

Actually good for her. Still like her but how is this like "old news" to some of you? Where has she shown signs of being gay? All I knew is that she was like very nature oriented or something.
 
Good for her :)

Also I guess "that" scene in Super must have been more than incredibly awkward to shoot then.
 
Yeah, well being gay is a sin... So that means she's going to Hell if God is real...
How is that type of social rejection worth the threats from people and religion...

Here's my response to another famous woman coming out as socially homosexual so people can watch her walk into the fires of Hell:

So when is George Clooney coming out?

You're gonna last long.
 
Put me in the camp that did not know before that she was gay. I don't follow all the celeb gossip and whatnot, didn't know anything about her except that she was in Juno. Good for her though.
 
I can't wait for the day when sexual preference is as mundane as the color of hair someone prefers. I'm happy for her and that she feels confident to share, but I hope for a world in which we can say "who cares?".
 
100% true. 100% idiotic movie. 100% stupid misandrist bullshit.

What exactly is idiotic, or "poor" about this film called Juno. I'm not a fan of the film either, but if you're being realistic the production values, and the names associated are very powerful and relevant to the time. Every of the major characters inside of the story are pretty shockingly casted for their roles. That being said the scriptwriting, and the pace of the story are poor... What's up with the way how powerfully you still feel about discrediting the film Juno, however? Are you so powerfully motivated to discredit such a high-budget film...

I don't see a lot of straight people dressing the way gay people do in pride parades.

A lot of the time, people of a certain sexual preference act, dress, and look a different way than the majority of hetero people do. It's nothing to get upset about.
 
I think they do have a point in terms of a lot of people assuming someones sexuality from their appearance. If somebody didn't know for sure, and assumed based on her appearance and then posted something like 'is anyone surprised' that comes off as a bit shitty. Not a huge deal, but the point is a fair one I think.

For me personally, I assumed not exactly based on her appearance, but she just gave off a bit of a vibe that made me wonder... so I'm not too surprised at her coming out.

Have to agree, some people you can just tell. Not sure what the big deal is. Is it disrespectful to form that opinion about someone without confirmation? Gay GAF do you even care?
 
Oh, i feel just fine honestly. I'm not really understanding why you choose to ask me about my mood instead of continuing some sort of constructed discussion, about how i perceived your observation of the newsline.

I like that it seems like every day there is a victory for equal rights when it comes to sexuality.

I don't like Juno.

That's really all there is to it.
 
The last thing I expected was to come in here to the last of us "spoilers"


i mean, they showed more than that in the reveal trailer for the dlc...it's not spoiling anything

Yah well hell doesn't exist, so I guess she's going to be fine.
 
Whenever I hear about a celebrity coming out I'm reminded of Amanda Bearse, the actress who played Marcy on Married with Children. She came out, I want to say in the 80s but with no fanfare she just did this little PSA at the end of an episode and that was it.
 
I'm mostly surprised by the "well duh" comments. I don't ever recall reading about her possibly being gay (though I guess that mostly means I never read anything regarding her).
