It’s called acting. You’re pretending to be something you’re not. Back in Shakespeare’s day, men played woman’s roles, kabuki in Japan is performed by males, etc. Actors are supposed to make you believe in their role, so what they are r who they like in real life should have no bearing.   reply

Yes, cause why not? Acting is about portraying someone different from yourself. While representation matters, an actor’s sexuality shouldn’t determine whether they’re allowed to take on a role.
