Mel Gibson? Given his relgious convictions he’d never admit it even if he was. ---

Not only do I think that Mel Gibson is homosexual, I also think he has a fetish for pain and brutality, and that the Passion of the Christ was quite literally a high-budget simulated snuff film that Gibson created specifically to satisfy his own perversion. I wouldn’t be surprised if he whacked off to that movie. ---

I wouldn’t be surprised if he whacked off to that movie. You’ve seen passion of the Jew then? 😃 Mine is David Beckham. The man pretty much pioneered metrosexuality and clearly doesn’t care about traditional masculinity, I don’t think you could do that if you were actually gay. Like Depp I think he’s just so secure in his heterosexuality he feels having to act like a traditional man isn’t necessary if he doesn’t want to. ---

[QUOTE=MrDibble;10271That’s a libelous misinterpretation of the facts.[/QUOTE] Many people knew he had an inappropraite relationship with his adopted daughter Dylan. He was accused of sexually molesting her, and there was some evidence that he did. He lost the custody trial and the appeal because his relationship with her was entirely too inapproprate. He refused to visit his other two children if he could not visit with Dylan. If Allen wasn’t a pedophile, he was as close to one as a person could get within the confines of the law.
