Jose Antonio Vargas, The Washington Post When word got around among gay folk that Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger, hunky Hollywood hotties du jour, were set to play ranch hands who fall in love in the idyllic mountains of Wyoming, there was a certain giddiness: Tight Levi's! A gay cowboy movie!

HOLLYWOOD -- Ang Lee would prefer people not think of his new film Brokeback Mountain as the "gay cowboy'' movie.

"It's really a great American love story,'' Lee says. "It just happens that the lovers are both men. To emphasize the characters' sexuality, rather than the powerful emotional connection they make, is to do an injustice to E. Annie Proulx's lovely, sad, tragic, poignant...

It made it clear that despite all the pledges, promises and good works, there...

The NBA fined Lakers coach for expressing an interest in the Toronto Raptors' .

I don't mean the kind of interest you find in a Hollywood gay cowboy movie. I don't mean the kind of interest used to show in -as opposed to Chris Bosh-back in her "Sex and the City" days.
