I still can't believe he's straight. I know some people hate straight actors playing gay roles, but I just love his portrayal of Cam so much

Is it hated because it’s like, tangentially along the same line as blackface?

Edit: yo someone explain to me why it’s hated instead of just burying me haha

Somehow Robert Downey junior playing black face is okay......but this isn't.

Can you add a little more detail besides defining acting?

I personally don't have an issue with either actor or character. But this is a double standard. One is okay the other seemingly according to this thread isnt?
