PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
...His "gayness" seems a little forced, like he's trying a bit too hard. We've all seen straight guys try to use gay phraseology and mannerisms and it just doesn't seem natural.
I suspected Franklin was gay early on-- when they did the cowboy dancing on the ranch and Franklin and James had their one-on-one. Something didn't seem right.
What I really noticed in the second to last episode, though, was Franklin's use of awkward lingo. He tells James he was such and such age when he "came out of the closet." In that intimate of a setting, speaking with someone who is also gay, you'd be much more likely to say "I came out when I was..."
THEN, Franklin goes on to recount telling his friends he was gay. About his friends he says: "some of which I lost and some of which remained my friends"-----
HELLO! Overly stiff and formal responses that come straight out of the "How To Be Gay Handbook." His dis-ease with the conversation gave him away big-time.
