What Do Natalie Portman and Lisa Ray have in Common?

Not since the Lesbian Media Blackout of Lisa (Rani) Ray’s two movies: I Can’t Think Straight and The World Unseen, complete with negation of those movies and lack of publicity, have I seen such a lack of coverage concerning an actress who participated in a lesbian scene in a movie (A story arc that did not result in the inevitable female/male coupling).

Remember the time when if any actor played lesbian the lesbian themed sites would cheer-lead that actor to no end? Apparently those days are gone and now various lesbian media sites and blogs spend time on 2 things: The Lack of lesbian visibility in television and movies or when there are lesbians, the inevitable pregnancy of one of the women.

As ironic as this seems those very same sites promote movies displaying a lesbian inexplicably drawn to the gentalia [sp] of a member of the opposite sex.  Now they are silent when their accolades fall flat with the voting academy.

So Let Me Get This Right: Lesbian oriented Websites and Blogs think it's perfectly fine for lesbians to be portrayed as characters who are confused with their sexual orientation, as long as they put their same sex partner trough emotional turmoil by staying with them after they betray them with a member of the opposite sex, but they mustn’t become impregnated. Yeah sure that  is perfectly logical (Not).

Y’all know I’m talkin’ about the lesbian media backlash against Black Swan (since it’s sweeping up of the Globe and S.A.G Awards) and the lack of media coverage on lesbian oriented sites.  I'm not surprised though cause they did the same thing to Lisa Ray and she made 2 movies that had happy lesbian endings.

Natalie Portman is full steam ahead charging towards a "Three-peat" (Best Actress Golden Globe, S.A.G, Oscar) a.k.a Hollywood's "Triple Crown". (Oh yeah then there’s the B.A.F.T.A’s)
It’s hard to win the first 2 awards and NOT take home the Oscar, but stranger things have happened.

Strange things like lesbian websites and blogs promoting inter-gender infidelity and trying to rationalize it no less.

Too bad the Oscars are so far away (February 27, 2011) and I don’t know when the BAFTA’s are. I just want to get this awards season over with and end the carnage so the girls can relax and stop their conspicuous silence.
