Was Cassie in the Brokeback Mountain movie homophobic?

Well, now that I've thought about it a bit, maybe I do know why. It's because I'm doing my taxes and I come to BetterMost while I'm waiting for forms to print out and things like that, and when I click "show new replies to your posts" this thread keeps popping up, and it's one of the few that do, so while I'm here I pound out a post to pass the time and relieve the stress I'm feeling over the fact that I made a stupid error on my taxes and now have to file an amended return.
--- Quote ---a corollary to that question is : why does Artiste seem to need to believe that Ennis did not have "sex" with Cassie? ???

I don't know if that's exactly a corollary. Maybe Artiste is doing his taxes, too? In any case, I've been wondering that same thing myself.
Now a corollary to YOUR question is, why do you put the word "sex" in quotation marks?
???

great, then I can interest you in joining me in supporting the "fair tax"? abolish our homegrown American Gestapo, the IRS. everyone, rich, middle and poor should pay federal taxes at the same rate, based upon consumption.
the quote marks are in response to what I saw as Artiste's equivocal definition of what he meant by sex between Cassie and Ennis. That line of questioning, my journalist friend, might offer some pay dirt on why Artiste persists in this line of opinion. just a thought.
Artiste:
Good posts you all too!!
May I note:
I do not think that Ennis had continuous sex with Cassie. Maybe a bit, but I tend to even doubt that too !!
The expression that Ennis uses: putting the blocks, to me, is the opposite of what you think!!
And one must ardently remember WHY did Ennis, after coming down with Jack, from the Brokeback Mountain, why he YELLED at Jack when Jack came back to see him in that shed !!
Etc. !!
Au revoir,
hugs! My trail is different from yours, and so was Ennis'... too !!

I should hope not! Five years of continuous sex and the poor boy would be worn out! :P Might explain why he kept sending Jack away though - he was just plain exhausted! :laugh: (sorry, I've got my 'silly head' on)

You mean after they leave Aguirre's yard when they come down from the mountain? That wasn't Jack - that was just some random cowboy wandering past.
