Wow, people can be cruel! Ha ha, that’s no news flash, especially to me, but sometimes you forget until the point is driven home again. Yesterday I did an interview with ABC News for their website, which turned out Ok. The comment threads are already getting kinda vicious, though. It’s amazing to me how many people can look at a photo of me in a white dress and light makeup, and see “PERVERTED SEX!!!” So many things spring to mind, like what about shows like Nip/Tuck and so many other top rated television shows? They are packed to the gills with heterosexual characters who have bizarre perverted heterosexual sex. But significantly fewer people decry them for it. “Won’t someone please think of the children! Why is television (my default babysitter) forcing this sicko ‘gay’ sex down our children’s throats?!” What about the slavering crypto-pedophiles who eagerly count down to every Disney Channel starlet’s 18th birthday with a sex-minded wink and nudge? What about… what about… oh, whatever. It’s a no-win argument, really. That doesn’t mean I won’t still have thoughts about it, and write about it occasionally, but I do realize the Sisyphean task of countering the alarmist cries of dum-dums.

Thankfully, there have been lots and lots of supportive comments on various sites as well. I believe that, for the most part, when people actually see me or meet me in real life, they will have to struggle a lot harder to think “PERVERTED SEX!!!” I’ll be too busy cracking jokes and being cooool, baby!

Oh, and just to remind everyone, here’s my breakdown of the hypocrisy that I find so annoying amongst certain few hetero people:

Wow, so the press release for my new dating show, Transamerican Love Story”, was put out today! There was already a nice post on Perez Hilton’s blog, which is HUGE! He has an enormous readership. Ever cooler, he was totally nice and hasn’t even assigned me a cruel nickname! (Yet! Yikes… let’s hope that doesn’t happen.)

The show is SO much fun, with lots of humor and hot guys and cool things happening. I can’t say much, but I hope everyone will watch when it comes out in February 2008. I’ll keep you updated!

Yes, that’s right kids, I had about as much screen time in the movie “Southland Tales” as beloved Janine Garofalo! “Donnie Darko” is one of my favorite movies of all time, so the chance to be in anything by the same director was thrilling, even if I was only a non-glorified face in the background. I got to see “The Rock” in person, which was hot. I think Vin Diesel has officially been dethroned as my sex god en situ. I just never thought he’d be replaced by someone named “Dwayne"…

Hey kids, you may remember that Andrea and I did a small turn as
in a short film written and directed by Edward Gunawan called “Laundromat”. You really only see us coming in at the beginning, doing laundry, and then again at the film’s explosive climax. I embedded the MySpace Lo-Quality trailer below, and you can click this link for the high quality “Laundromat” trailer.

Hey kids… just some video of yours truly and Andrea giving an intro and then answering questions for ”Casting Pearls”. =)
