Concidering how well spoken the man is, his chances of being straight are pretty slim and thats my personal opinion.. My personal opinion has no basis in fact other than my own life experiences with straight and gay men. Straight men tend to speak poorly and have a 8th grade vocabulary. Just the other day I was having to explain to a medical technican what the definition of PALLOR is. Its a shame. He had no idea what I was talking about when I informed him "thats not his normal pallor". If anyone doesnt like how that sounds, then they dont know what free speech means. But heres the real question. Does it matter if Wentworth Miller is gay? I say, yes, it does matter because gay people need more role models- BUT, its Mr. Miller's business to either tell CONFIRM or DENY it. Why? Cause his career depends upon him not confirming anything remotely homosexual about his nature, EVEN IF it could be true. THATS sad about hollywood, Im just glad that Neil Patrick Harris came out of the closet despite how it may affect his career. People for SOME reason, have NO problem with STRAIGHT men PLAYING gay characters- yet if youre actually gay then they dont seem to believe that you can ACT as thought your character is straight. Its really a double standard. By the way, people who claim you violated something are probably excercising their own prejudices against you and this is the only way they can try and affect your day.

It was probably because one of Wentworth Miller's fans read your question and didn't like your question. Seriously. So this fan reported it as abuse. There are no humans to read and investigate the reports. (There are far too many abuses being reported for YA to keep up with.) As a result, when abuse is reported, there are three things that happen. (1) An automatic email ("auto responder") sends you an email telling you that you've violated community guidelines, and you can appeal if you like -- but they never answer if you reply to them. Robots can't read. (2) An automatic email is also sent to the person who reported the abuse, stating they will investigate (but they don't). (3) The "offensive" question/answer is automatically deleted, and they are DONE with the "investigation."
So, knowing this ... don't take it to heart when your question/answer get's deleted by a YA robot.
Rock on, Mama!

Some one asked a stupid question that made absolutly no sense and I answered "say what? and got a violation for that. So I got mad and called Yahoo on it saying that I demanded they retract the violation. The very next day they emailed me and said they were looking into it. ANd I am going to keep pestering them about it until they DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I suggest YOU do the same. Scroll down to the tell us what you think and tell them off.

I don't know either. I got one for making a statement. It said it wasn't a question or answer. I suppose someone reported it as abuse. I don't understand how so much offensive language doesn't get deleted.
Sorry I can't help you with the question about Wentworth Miller, but I have no idea who he is!

I got a violation for answering a "what computer should i get" question with "apple" apparently that's not an "answer" although I own a very sexy apple mac which i would recommend... it really pisses me off with this violation business - especially when there is so much which should be held up for violation that isn't!!!
Don't worry chick, its really nothing personal - a glitch in the system I'm sure xxx

confident. They slowed to a stop, yet i've got had a pair this week already. One became into on the moon landings. surely, Yahoo could take a sturdy share of the blame for permitting this troll to flee with their movements. If their objective is to perpertrate lack of awareness and superstition among the popular public, they seem to be succeeding.

Hmmmmmmm considering all the offensive topics on here I am surprised you got a violation notice over something so harmless as that. Maybe you worded it wrong. Don't know didn't see the question.

You could go to the Yahoo!Answers message board and ask there. There is a message board at bottom of page linked as "tell us what you think"
But the short answer is: Its not fair, yours gets deleted but hate is left up.

That's insane. I got a Best Answer for replying "Learn to spell you hopeless freak" or something like that.
YA is badly broken...so of course I love it.
