Without debating whether or not these people are gay, I just find it hard to see these folk playing straight people.

I’m not stating these people are gay, it is just they don’t seem to play convincing hetrosexuals to me. Any others you can think of??
Remember I don’t want to hear if they are gay or straight, just whether they are able to play a straight role convincingly
Woody Woodpecker
Rocky Squirrel
Gumby & Pokey
The Pink Panther
…And that stupid rabbit who kisses men on the lips and is dressed in drag half the time!
Elmer J. Fudd,
Millionaire.
I own a mansion and a yacht.
That Richard guy on Caroline in the City. It was a dreadful show, anyway, but I just never bought him being a love interest. And is Andy Dick’s character straight?
I used to think the world was against me. Now I know better. Some of the smaller countries are neutral.
Most of the SNL line-up.
Michael Jackson
Basically I have a hard time thinking of any actor as hetero. I mean, they wear make-up for crying out loud.
Most of the guys in commercials.
Chuck Norris on Walker, Texas Ranger. Does he think he’s fooling anyone with this whole “straight” act?
Ellen DeGeneres, during the first two or three seasons of ELLEN.
Niles and Frasier Crane are pretty unconvincing as straight men. They just constantly flame. There are a lot of other ones.
HUGS!

My vote would go to David Foley, who was on Newsradio. No idea if the actor is straight or not, but he certainly wasn’t very convincing as a straight guy on that show. I would also have to vote for Andy Dick from that same show.
Shadowfox
“We are what we pretend to be.”
Shadowfox: Now, on the opposite end, I have a hard time believing that Will from “Will and Grace” is gay. He plays it too straight, if you know what I mean.
On another opposite: how about Sean Hayes, Jack McFarland on W&G? He plays straight guys in commercials. (Puffy Doritos being shot out of a laundromat dryer and caught by a model & the three-headed lounge lizard)
I’m hoping the final episode of Frasier will feature Niles & Frasier’s marriage.
How about Dr. Smith from ‘Lost in Space,’ who was SO nelly and was always going off on “camping trips” with Will Robinson?
"Oh, the pain . . . the pain . . . "
The butler on *The Nanny{/i].
This guy, whoever he is, is the personification of “fey”.
Eden, who are you wanting Niles and Fraser to marry? Remember they are brothers, I do not think (even if they had them be gay), that they would have them be so sick as to marry each other.
Jeffery
Oh, I completely meant they should marry each other. It could turn out that they’re not brothers after all, or something.
Seriously, aren’t they perfect for each other? They’re both always trying to impress people who can’t appreciate their efforts.
I’ve gotta do something to drive Squrlcub over the edge here.
My vote is for Ed Asner.

Just popped in to say, THANK YOU UNCLE BEER. I love you too in the platonic uncle-y way.
HUGS!

Rosie O’Donnell.
A crush on Tom Cruise. Right.
If I wanted smoke blown up my ass, I’d be at home with a pack of cigarettes and a short length of hose.
I still laugh at columnist Michael Musto’s comment when Rosie said she was jealous of John Travolta’s wife Kelly Preston for kissing Tom Cruise: “I am so confused on so many levels.”
Oh, another not-straight guy: the male Team Rocket member on Pokémon. The real femmy blue-haired guy. Very Dr. Smith.
Christopher Lowell, though, I’m pretty certain he’s not even trying to be hetero
Wishing all you at the SDMB Happy Xmas and a GREAT 2000 and beyond!
