Quinto is out of the closet
- Thread starter Kamdan
- Start date
Wait, this is news? So how did I already know this?
So all the K/S writers were ahead of the curve? I kid I kid.
In seriousness though: Meh. So he's gay. I've seen this commented on a couple different boards. Basically to the tune of "OMFG!!!! Abrams is going to make Spock a *** in the next movie!"
In honesty, unless you're a person that can't seperate the character from the actor, what's the big deal when actors come out? You never see them "coming out" as hetero? I doesn't see the point and why fans worry about this stuff.

After noticing... what? Something in the photo of Spock giving a Vulcan salute? Something else?
(A link to a news article or some other info might have been useful here.)
Would you care to elaborate a little as to why you're not surprised by... whatever it is? And why now? You haven't really provided us with much of a basis for discussion, thus far.
EDIT:
This may be what the OP was referring to:

If so, it would have been better of Kamdan to be more specific, rather than making everyone guess.

Because in today's judicial system, you're hetero until you're proven gay.
I'd better stop watching JJ Trek then, it might make me gay.
Must be a slow news day--if you can consider this newsworthy...
On the other hand, something like this could have been considered a career-wrecker only a generation ago. Reading the article in my second link above, I noted that Quinto—in asking whether he could record the interview—seemed to consider his new willingness to discuss his sexuality in the press as a kind of personal milestone reached, but at the same time I didn't get the impression that he considered the fact terribly newsworthy in itself nor that he thought it likely that his career would suffer as a result.

Yep, for once I'm glad I didn't get the "joke" the first time around.
Pretty much, yeah.
... and the average intelligence of this forum drops another notch.
