Why does anyone care?

Just saw another one of those idiotic articles. This one was, Is Jake Gyllenhaal gay? Who cares" And, frankly, my personal gaydar tells me not a chance.  Sadly every handsome and talented actor has to be subjected to this stupid question. Who starts it?  Those who are jealous and start rumors they hope will hurt a successful actor's career. And gay men themselves expressing their never-to-be-realized fantasy. How annoying it must be for the actors. Especially when you're being so labelled because you play a gay man in a movie. In this case Brokeback Mountain, which was entertaining and unbelievable. I'm sure many people will be annoyed with me when I comment that a woman wrote it and it shows. Of course almost every critic and film reviewer who writes about it refers to Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist as cowboys, which they weren't.  Grin and bear it Jake and Ben and Matt and George and all you other talented and handsome young actors.  The lazy, lazy media has a whole list of easy stories to create and this is one of their favorites.
