Why would someone in showbiz stay in the closet nowadays - unless they are a sex symbol for women.
Cause' Hollywood exists in a bubble not every other state in the U.S or country around the world is as welcoming as they are. And that hurt the bottom line. Studios and managers know this and so i'm sure some people have been told not to come out.

You've beautifully answered your own question.

Every man is at least partly marketed on sex appeal to women (and vice versa!). Yes, even the average-looking types. You can market a man/woman on personality as well as or other than looks too.

Agents, managers, studio bosses all weigh these possibles up. All of it is potentially a money spinner. Then they frantically panic about what they might lose should that person not be interested in the demographic they are strongly targeted at.

Yes, maybe the industry should stop targeting and just roll with it.

The National Enquirer is not a source for anything it's pure make believe - if they get anything right its an accident.

No but little more than rumours and I doubt that were any of this true she would have been able to keep it secret. After all, look what happened to her husband. Someone somewhere would have found one of these lovers to speak out by now.

I'm not so sure about that. Given the influence the Clintons have I don't think it's that unreasonable to keep things secret.

I think their influence is often overstated and even if you're right they couldn't keep Lewinski a secret so why assume they could keep this under wraps, particularly if she's putting it about as much as the Enquirer suggests. Someone would sell her out.

The Clintons have huge numbers of enemies who want to see them fail and I'm not just talking about Republicans. If there was genuinely any truth to the rumours then something would have come out by now.

It's also quite typical to attack strong ambitious women by hurling any insult you can think of at them. in the past you'd call them witch, these days it's lesbian. I might be wrong but I just don't buy it.

Okay, I understand this thread is a bit of fun, etc, but I'm surprised by all the "I get / don't get vibes / my gaydar" etc posts.

Do people really still view sexuality in this way in 2012? If you behave in a certain stereotypical way you must be gay, and if you don't, you must be straight?

Some people need to open their minds a little.
Well its 2015 now, and I still think this thread is a bad idea. Making the occasional aside comment in a thread about someone seeming effeminate is one thing. A thread dedicated to calling out people who random anonymous people on the Internet want to accuse of hiding their true sexuality is another.

For me it mostly comes down to if they do their job. Use the classic example of Rock Hudson. He was outed after his death so thoroughly by so many people, so I suppose it would be churlish to act like there's anything left to protect there (unlike a lot of the people called out or speculated about here). Anyway, Hudson was good enough at his leading man job that it didn't matter that he was gay.

Of course there are plenty of actors who don't play leading man roles and in fact may play off being effeminate or at least metrosexual as part of their career. That's totally different. Most of them, if they are in the closet at all, are only barely in. But if an actor WANTS To stay in the closet? They should.

Can't say I've ever got that sort of vibe from him, although my gaydar is dreadful.
