I really have no opinion of this movie until I see it. It appeals to me emotionally because it involves gay people. It also appeals to me on an artistic level because it has been passed off as artistically tasteful and independant.

they are bi

Meh. Hollywood movies usually have some hidden agenda in them. I can find 'em in a lot of the more recent films. Not a boast or anything, but I'm sure if I took the time to research and look, I could find it

I'm aware. I'm still to be appealed on an emotional factor because two men have some form of love. Is that better worded?

Well, your brother was right.... BBM won 4 golden globes. Well, a lot of us were right when we predicted that Hollywood just fell over itself giving awards to this nonsense (but then that's like predicting that Christmas is going to fall on December 25th of any given year). The movie is just gay pornography that not only endorses homosexuality but adultery, too. (A Hollywood movie that endorses adultery, who'd ever have thunk it?).

If it were a flick about straight cowboys, it would have probably gone to the bargain basement at Wal-Mart. In fact, when was the last time Hollywood came out with a Western? 1992 ("Unforgiven")? And granted, it won an Oscar, but in that one, the cowboys managed to keep their pants on.

And by the way, how many Golden Globes did "Passion of Christ" win? Oh, yes, it's equal to the same number of Protestant Popes, plus the number of neurons in Michael Moore's head, plus the combined IQs of my two senators (Hillary and Chucky) ..... or in other words ZERO. (OK, it was nominated for three oscars, but took home none).

And before we hear about "breaking new ground".... please don't go there. It's more like a kid with his parents, pushing to see just how far he can go before he gets grounded for life.

Well .... these awards don't necessarily mean anything. I understand that Alfred Hitchcock, the Master of Suspense, never won an Oscar, either. The true test will be the test of time. In five years, who will even remember "Brokeback Mountain"?

Men can love each other without having sex together, or desiring to do so.

Men can love each other without having sex together, or desiring to do so.

But the thing is, what if they want to express that love in one of the more deeper forms? I'm not talking platonic love, I'm talking about intimate love that is expressed in mainstream heterosexual couples as well as homosexual couples.

How would you suggest two males - who are strictly heterosexual - express their "deeper than platonic" love?

Without doing something that would be considered a homosexual act.

 

[MtnBiker]

Go shopping for clothes together.

I'd say watch a sport game if they are into a sport. Play that sport even. Chill out at a movie they both have an interest in. Play games.

It's what I do with my heterosexual friends that I love.

Also, I just reread your message. I was talking in instance of homosexual/bisexual men when I said "deeper than platonic" love.

 

[Superfluous Man]

Pope Pius had it right when he said (when talking about pre-marital sex,) "It's fine to be in love with someone. Just keep your pants zipped up."

But we know that keeping your pants zipped up after a certain point (marriage) is pointless. So that's why the gay populace has pre-marital sex, because they can't marry each other. I know the most popular saying is "They can too marry, just not a person of the same sex." Well, what's the point for a gay person to marry and have sex with a person of a gender they're not attracted to? They're not expressing their love to a person they love.

You don't really believe this do you?

You should know that I'm not that dense. I'm saying on a generalization. Gay people have the same urges and wants as straight people. A majority have sex for pleasure. But I'm trying to cater to the ones who match their more conservative (what I mean here are those who have pre-marital sex to show their love and devotion) heterosexual counterparts.

I would think the platonic love would be the "deeper" sentiment. Spiritual experiences are generally considered to be "deeper" than physical ones.

My idea of a "deeper" love is along the lines of a spiritual and emotional connection in love.

No need for sex, then.

 

[Kagom]

Maybe not so, but sex can be the best way for each other to show they do love each other better than just saying "I love you."

 

[Mr. P]

No need for sex, then.

Do you limit your expression of love?

 

[GotZoom]

Maybe not so, but sex can be the best way for each other to show they do love each other better than just saying "I love you."

But what if it is wrong for the two of them to have sex?
