He makes gay press look stupid. The Advocate was slipping before he started, and now there is a real reason to cancel my subscription. Journalists are not supposed to be such narcissists.

He seemed high on himself then and I see his hasn't really change much it seems. it sounds like it was a funny bit. sort of like when Kathy Griffin is going to interview you, BE PREPARED for her being a bitch to you.

It's not that I "don't get" the Big Gay Following bits; I do, and I find them generally benign but also occasionally irritating, most notably with this recent installment. What I find most dismaying and frustrating is the fueling of old stereotypes so many heterosexual people hold of The Gays--the weaker gay man slobbering all over a straight man and peppering him with sexual innuendo. I don't care if it's all wink-wink or not; it's crass and embarrassing and yet one more thing for which the rest of us must make apologies and strain at explanations to our straight friends. This isn't to say I don't have a grasp of whatever we're calling the gay sensibility these days; I just expect different things from something that purports to be a news magazine.

I don't think it's inappropriate to ask off-the-PR-Script questions about sex, penis size or any of it. Brody and Queerty need to lighten up. are WE that humorless and sex phobic?

In the way that Queerty has presented it, and in the way people are responding to it. I question how many of the commentators read the Advocate. If they do read it on a regular basis, they would know that these are the type of questions that people get asked in the "Big Gay Following" section. And, I think it is important to mention that when referencing the article, otherwise, it does look like Voss was being inappropriate. But, this isn't a serious interview by any means. I think that Voss went into the interview, prepared to do what is necessary for the section. Brody, on the other hand, should do some research on the type of interview he is doing, prior to giving the interview. It would be the equivalent of going on Bill O'Reilly's show, and trying to successfully defend a liberal agenda. I feel that Voss is being blasted unfairly, in this regard.

A question like that might be fine for one person and not fine for another. Everyone is different. We all have different boundaries, different moral codes etc. and its about what is right for an individual. I think the writer made the comment because he did not like Mr. Brody's boundaries and was probably embarrassed and reacted like a dick by referring to his dick. Childish and adolescent. You could interview Dolly Pardon and refer to her boobs all day long and she would laugh because its well known she does it herself. But I don't think you would interview Michelle Obama and try the same thing and come off with similar results. Maybe the interviewer just did not read him very well. But then maybe the interviewer is just tacky, disrespectful and invasive. I think as an interviewer you have to be able to read people pretty well.

His line of questioning was inappropriate and a waste of Brody's time. THE ADVOCATE used to be a credible magazine, but with interviews like the Voss/Brody one ADVOCATE's credibility fades even more.

Prissy uptight school marms. It's like the community is afraid to be different anymore. Do we all want to fit in now? Have babies and get married? I just want to know what's in stars pants and if they're packing! Nothing wrong with genitalia. Certainly better than guns, war, murder, etc. Why have gay people become so friggin conservative?

He takes every opportunity to make a stand/act offended/be a HUGE intellectual. Those questions were harmless and could've been handled much better by a more intelligent person. But, then again, drama sells..... By the way, who is Adrian Brody? Adrian Brody is a drama queen. He takes every opportunity to make a stand/act offended/be a HUGE intellectual.
