Pay –to –be –Gay



We had this discussion in class about non- handicap people playing handicap rolls in television and movies. I know that being from the LGB world does not make a person handicap or disabled however I am wondering how people feel about straight actors portraying gay characters in the movies and television shows. Actors call it Pay –to –be –Gay, the straight actors who sign up to play a gay role might actually make more money. But do actors who are gay playing a straight character make more money? Is it fair to all the gay actors out there to have a straight actor on television or in the movies play a gay character when they have no real experience draw from? What do you think?
