Bisexual male actors in hollywood
For many, June represents the month of pride; a time to celebrate, educate and communicate all that is queer, gay and fabulous.

It&#;s difficult to know if all these celebrities, and of course many more, were truly gay, but I wanted to share a few stories just so see how far we&#;ve come. Happy pride everyone.
