A Little Sleazy?....


I have no problem with gays , lesbians or whatever minority group you could mention and I really wanted to enjoy this film , which I did , but was alarmed at watching the apparent ' Sleazy ' way in which Harvey Milk and indeed a lot of the other Gay men were portrayed in this film....the way he picks his first partner up in a subway and sleeps with him immediately...not even knowing his name!...the way he repeats these actions almost identically with his second lover....For a person of any sexual orientation these actions are not those of somebody with respect for themselves or indeed others feelings or health...I also felt Milk was portrayed almost as some kind of ' sexual predator ' with sex on his mind all of the time , wether he was really like that or not I dont know but its actions like those that would encourage animosity towards any minority group!
