Apparently many gay men didn't like Ian's comments on the ROA DVD commentary. I haven't heard it, so I can't comment on it. But some people didn't like it and of course, the A&F interview didn't help at all (even though Ian has said in the F5 that the interviewer was awful and kept trying to twist things).
What I still don't get is that both of these things
aren't new. They've been out for a while, but yet
now I am getting a rash of hate mail. Why the heck didn't I see this when the DVD was released? From everything that I've found out, it sounds like something more recent happened and that opened up the old wounds - so to speak. Problem is, I have no clue what that something might have been.
Regardelss, it's been lousy reading all the hate mail - especially when I don't think Ian deserves it. And the really fun part? The ones that have now turned on me for defending Ian.
