Why is there an assumption that the people going to see this movie are predominantly gay? I saw Top Gun and I'm not a fighter pilot. I saw Saving Private Ryan and I'm not a soldier. I saw Terms of Endearment and I'm not an adulterer. Brokeback Mountain is a story about people, and some of those people happen to be gay. This is a controversy that has no business being a controversy.
