Lipton’s Journal/December 29, 1954/107: Difference between revisions

Marion Faye’s note: Re: Teddy Pope,<ref>In ''[[The Deer Park]]'', a handsome gay actor who is forced to play straight, masculine roles by the homophobic Hollywood film industry. At one point, his producer, Herman Teppis, tries to force him to marry Lulu Meyers. {{NM}} admitted and rejected his earlier anti-gay bias in an essay, “[[55.1|The Homosexual Villain]],” that he wrote shortly after completing ''The Deer Park'' for ''One: the Homosexual Magazine'' (January, 1955), rpt. ''[[Advertisements for Myself]]''.</ref> he’s beautiful, the poor bastard. (Then an expansion of the note on the idea of how beautiful men go homo out of cowardice, because so much sex is open to them as heterosexuals and they have such sexual souls that they retreat into homosexuality where at least it can all go on underground.)
