Does popular = good?

I figured that most would not have a problem with straight for gay.

It is a sometimes made argument that "minorities" (for lack of a better term) should be portrayed by that minority. In other words, there are (gay) folks who would have no problem with a gay man portraying a straight man on film, but would be genuinely pissed at a straight man portraying a gay man. And yes, I believe that they would be the fringe minority.

Is there a gay equivalent of the "feminazi" - a hard-core militant gay right individual?

I have problems with gay for pay ... but that's sort of a tangent, no?
