male celebrities have always been in the closet, especially way back in the day--it was the only way they could get parts with certain director's. read a james dean biography--very illuminating.
Female celebrities aren't as scorned because men think its "hot" for a women to be a lesbian.
Its a reverse double standard.

That's not only with celebrities...This goes on in the real world also...Society is harder on gay males than they are on lesbian females...Males have this tough image that they must portray...I mean, when a female comes out of the closet, I think men start to like her more...They become more interesting or something...I don't know...BUT, when a guy comes out, that's just GROSS!!!! I should know..I'm a lesbian.. :o)

Assuming you are referring to admitting that one is gay by 'coming out of the closet'.
As a rule, society takes a completely different view of homosexual/gay females than it does males.
Most people look at gay females as something as an amusement while males are a danger to society.

In my opinion, its because there is a huge bias against male homosexuals as opposed to females. Many people see lesbians as "hot" and gay men as "bad" or "disgusting."

when females come out of the closet its hot .... when males come out of the closet it is GAY!!! Just look at the wold of porn most all people men and women will watch two women have sex on tap but only gay men like to watch two men have sex.

i think that society's view on homosexuality is influencing that. the view is that female homosexuality is sexy in some way but in males it is distastefull so it is safer and for females to do it without hurting careers

It's sort of in-style to be a lesbian. Plus you don't ever hear of groups of straight girls beating up a lesbian like you do guys gay bashing.
P.S. I think I've seen your cat in my yard. cute kitty

It's not detrimental to their careers like it is for men...rational? No.
Reality? It's the straight man's fantasy...
