I doubt if any straight women are interested in seeing this movie either.

"This is a threat to most men because it opens up the possibility that two men who are friendly may become affectionate," Shary said. "That's something men just do not want to consider."

Two men cannot be close friends without wanting to screw each other, the "gay" thinking goes. Male friendship is under attack by the homosexual lobby, and this film is only the latest example. It is a truly diabolical worldview that's being pushed on us, imho.

All that I can tell you is that I haven't heard anyone say that they wanted to see this movie, male or female, but I haven't exactly taken a poll.

You got that right! John Wayne would roll over in his grave!This is no cowboy movie. Don't they herd sheep?

You are so right - I have no desire to see this flick no matter "how good the acting."

Glad someone pointed out that these actors aren't playing cowboys - they're shepherds, and shepherds do get lonely, so have some damn sympathy already. From one of the reviews I read, these men have their little fling in a tent on the mountain and are freaked out by it like normal men would be. They go on with their lives and get married to unsuspecting women and have kids. Then they end up divorcing and abandoning their families because of what? That wonderful night of anal sex on Brokeback Mountain? And it is the Straight World's fault that they don't pursue their so-called love? Spare me.

This movie has one purpose and that is to change minds by evoking sympathy for unsympathetic behavior. As usual, the worst enemy of some gays is facing them in the mirror. We straights just don't care what you do. Please just leave us alone. Oh, I forgot - you have to recruit, don't you, because you cannot reproduce future partners for the Gay World.

My feelings on this movie take me back to the hullaballoo over the gay bishop of New Hampshire. This man declares he is gay. He divorced his wife, left his children, and moved his boyfriend in with him. And he thinks he is Bishop material -- no one should think anything is wrong with this picture. As Stossel says so well, Give me a Break! And not on a mountain....

I know a few, including me, that would not view it if someone gave them a DVD for free.

This straight woman is NOT INTERESTED in seeing two men violate their marriage vows, destroy their families and themselves through their acts of sodomy.
I am privileged to know many wonderful people who happen to be gay, but I have no desire to view their intimate relations. I can love the sinner and hate the sin. I don't need to see it portrayed on the big screen

I thought the idea was revolting, and I'm a straight female.
