why do MOST men refuse to watch Brokeback mountain? What are they afraid of??

Excellent question.  I think those men who refuse to see an award winning film are simply so narrow-minded that all they see about the film are two men kissing, and they don't have the maturity or rationale to get past that small factor to see the big picture. No pun intended.

It's funny because everyone thinks it is coming out so late because of the politics and what not, but no, movies come out in accordance with how many people went to see them in the theatre and how well they did.... if it was based on politics and what not wouldn't you think Brokeback Mountain wouldn't have come out right away?

It's all about the oil, plain and simple. \n\nNow you've made me want to watch 'Brokeback' again.

what about brokeback mountain?

I believe more men do. Why? Because they are of course trying to get chicks to watch them...hence the title "chick flick." (Plus then they can brag to women that they wrote it and then they will appear "sensitive" in hopes of getting some.)

Because too many guys watch porn...so they think they need to be as hung as some of those cats they see on screen. \n\nEven though porn sex is probably the worse type of sex cause it's all about the show and looks terribly uncomfortable most of  the time.

Rent Brokeback Mountain and after you watch it talk to you husband and see how he feels about the movie and then break the news to him gently, maybe he will surprise you.

I personally do not like porn just for the fact that I think it's gross and unrealistic. Too many people really believe that women should not only look like that, but they think that what is happening on the screen should happen in their bedroom. Unfortunately, too many men think that they got a raw deal when their woman doesn't look or act like those trashy women they see in the movies. Thumbs down!!

I think that some are afraid. Maybe because they see what Native Americans have gone through since Europeans came here and how they are treated that they're afraid of getting a taste of their own medecine, simple as that. what people need to have is tolerance. does anyone wonder what would happen if that movie "un dia sin mexicanos" or whatever its name is, became a reality?

The men I know enjoy it because they don't have to keep it a secret. You two can learn and enjoy it together.(And they don't have to jack off cause they got you.)\n\nBut on the other hand some men dislike it because porn is there get away from you they can have it exact how they like it without your feeling being hurt.

I think everybody needs to wake up and realize that this type of movie was going to be made sooner or later.  I'm actually surprised it took this long.  Walmart would be slitting thier throats if they didn't sell the movie, b/c there are quite a few people out there that have seen and enjoyed the film.  I haven't seen it and don't have a desire to, and that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact the the lead characters are homosexuals.  To not sell Broke Back Mountain would lead to removing many other titles from the shelves as well, including Rent.  It has homosexual characters in it.  Broke Back Mountain is to 2006 as Song of The South was to the 1980's.  This too will pass

Must be some people with weak hearts, what movie could be that scary?\n\nhttp://www.calendarlive.com/printedition/calendar/qtakes/cl-et-weekmovie2jan02,0,7049556.story

It attempts to force homosexuality down people's throats (hey, I made a funny).  It goes out of its way to superimpose what is obviously abnormal on to a traditionally masculine role.\n\nLots of little boys identify with bein a cowboy.  So, let's make a movie about gay cowboys to get them to accept gays as normal.  Not only is this sickening but it causes quite a strong reaction because gays are not normal (if they were, homosexuality would be completely accepted by almost everyone in society).  To try and brainwash people into this is more than a little insulting.  And there has been a huge backlash, especially since the movie is of poor quality.\n\nGay folks, here is a clue.  You want to be accepted by everyone in mainstream society?  Stop being freaks.  Homosexuality is normal and has been accepted as such throughout human history.  However, you are not normal and that's a problem.  That problem is easily solved.

WELL, AS A WOMAN IT DIDNT BOTHER ME REALLY. I WOULD SAY THAT MOST HETEROSEXUAL MEN MIGHT HAVE SOME ISSUES SEEING IT. IT IS A WESTERN, BUT IS ROMANTICLY BASED AND HAS SOME SEX TYPE SCENES THAT ARENT GRAPHIC, BUT YOU BASICLY KNOW WHATS GOIN DOWN BETWEEN THEM. I WOULDNT RECOMMEND THAT PEOPLE SHOW THEIR KIDS IF THATS SOMETHING THEY HAVE NOT SPOKEN TO THEIR KIDS ABOUT. I WATCHED IT, BUT I AM PRETTY SURE THAT MY HUSBAND, WHO IS NOT FOND OF SEEING THAT KINDA THING, WILL NEVER AND SHOULD NEVER WATCH IT. AS IT WOULD DEFINATLY DISTURB HIM. BUT 2 EACH HIS OWN.

I feel it is completely acceptable for a man to cry at the movies.  It is an emotion which is fine to share with others.  You wouldn't ask if it were acceptable to laugh, smile, get angry, etc...  Of course, there are times when certain emotions may be displayed when it is not appropriate though nerves may make us do inappropriate things.  We are humans not robots.  Our emotions are meant to be shown, it dictates who we are, what we feel.  Could you imagine what the world would be like if we couldn't decide for ourselves what to feel, how to act?
