It seems like just yesterday, when I blogged about the Straight But Not Narrow campaign. At the time I felt a project like this could never help people understand. But I've had a change of heart since then, and commend the gorgeous Avan Jogia for starting this up. Besides, it's about "dudes talking to dudes, about dudes who like dudes," right?
In March, it was the beautiful Josh Hutcherson who came out in support of SBNN, but this time around, it's our beloved Glee actor, Cory Montieth aka Finn. If it's anyone who knows about the struggles we face everyday, it's him. He plays the step-brother to an actor who's gay in real-life and on the show, Kurt Hummel.
As Cory, states in the video...
"Sooo, maybe you like to play football, maybe you like to sing and dance, maybe you like both, maybe you don't like either, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter. Just be yourself, just be you, because that's good enough for me. We're guys, talking to guys, about guys, who like guys."
We love you Cory, thanks for being straight, but not narrow-minded!
The really sexy Josh Hutcherson has come out in support of all the straights. In a new campaign to support the Trevor Project, the Straight But Not Narrow campaign describes itself as the "go to" site for straight folks.
This is a way of getting the message across that "it’s an unfortunate reality that most of the bullying and harassment that gay teens face comes from them."
Furthermore, the site continues to say, "Just be you, Cause that's good enough for us."
So, whether you like girls, you like guys, you like both, you like neither (well, that would kinda suck, but you get the idea)…. what difference does it really make? There’s a whole lot more to a person than who they date. And yeah, we’re all different. But we believe that it’s those differences that make us interesting. Why would we all want to be exactly the same? Where’s the excitement in that?
While I find the concept of this campaign really progressive, it's hard to believe in it, because of the condemnation we face everyday. But then again, every little bit helps, and we thank Josh for his contribution.
