OCEAN’S 8 IS THE GAYT MOVIE OF THE YEAR, LET’S MAKE OCEAN’S 9 EVEN GAYER

This weekend I saw Ocean’s Gay. (Although, maybe they should nsir a name change…) This fourth stallment of the Ocean’s anchise, featured a diverse all-female st who showsed telligence, bad-assery and, if you exist for homoerotic subtext like I do, lbian love. While (tragilly) no character was openly gay, there was a near paful amount of sexual tensn between Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock) and Lou (Cate Blanchett).

Could she get gayer?! [Anyone remember that ridiculo outcry over LeFou beg openly gay Bety and the Beast? Gay marriage is accepted by the majory of people the Uned Stat and lennials are the gayt generatn on rerd.

So, why are movi ntug to shy away om portrayg openly gay characters?
