Having spent many years living in Montana, I just don't see BrokeBack as being a big pull with Montana males. More to the point: why is an aversion to homosexuality always twisted into a phobia. A phobia is an irrational, abnormal, persistent fear of situations, objects, activities, or persons. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. Phobia was originally a clinical term that has mutated into a substitute for dislike or aversion. I hereby declare that most people are homoaversive, they are not afflicted with a phobia.

Why can't they just advertise this movie to be about....

Two queer sheepherders that lose interest in their sheep, become more attracted to each others harry a$$ than the wool on a lamb, drift apart and try beaver pelts, get bored with that and go back for another "stab" at harry a$$'s again....

...Butt, lose it all "In the end" ?

From what I've read about this, that should sum it up.
