I'm sure that this resistance diminishes with younger demographics, but its there. On the other hand, I completely disagree about his assessment of women. Even if some women don't find M2M intimacy appealing, I doubt they will find it distasteful enough to avoid seeing the film.

As one who has lived under the yoke of straight men and what they want to see, screw them, bring it on.

Well, don't get your hopes too high. Bed sharing among men was common back then. As a young man, Abraham Lincoln shared a bed with his friend Joshua Speed for three years.

That's very true. Platonic intimacy between men was quite different in the 19th century.

I am currently reading The Hound of the Baskervilles and finding quite a bit of "buddy movie-plus" material in it. Also, saw the trailer for Sherlock Holmes...looks enticing!!
