There's a movie like this, it's on LoGo.

Anyways this is interesting, but it would be the same world anyways. Just opposites.

For someone reason I think I be straight in this world too.

That was very interesting. Some bits felt a bit ludicrous but i liked how he turned the tables and explained some of the issues.

I liked it. Was kinda hoping that woman at the end or someone would sorta counter him by saying that loving someone of the opposite sex felt like the right thing to do - it woulda been a Bingo! moment, no?

I liked the last lines. It just helped me a lot. "I dont know why". There is so answer. I have been trying to find it but now it makes sense. There is no answer.
