, "When I meet a straight man, that split-second assessment--would they say that word to you, would they say it about you, what if they thought you'd never hear it--is still something I'm hardwired to do. An extra safety-check for many of us. For decades.""I'm not piling on Damon; his journey's his journey; whatever," Mark continued. "But if any straight folks wonder why some gay people seem a little braced, consider. Even Matt Damon.
At this time, Matt hasn't publicly commented on the backlash to his remarks. E! News has reached out to his reps, but we haven't received a response.It was just three days ago the award-winning actor was the topic of discussion for his new movie
I applaud his HONESTY. Can't change the past, we can only move forward and do better. And that's what he's doing. And I am glad he's spoken out bc there are still SO many people, who think Fggot is an acceptable term to use when joking around. It is not.
Remember when a fag was a cigarette?
We should just be glad he stopped saying something that could hurt and/or demean people not bash him
That is twice I am reading about him. Sick of this shit.🙄
Lol. He thought he was going to get some type of WOKE points for this.
Oh Man! Matti is getting it today. He's my dude too. He's really the only SOB out of all these Boston actors I support. Jason Bourne is like my prep-school John Wick. I don't even think hardcore homophobes use that word anymore. That's just carzy! 🙄🤦🏾♂️
Boston born and too much time in Oklahoma filming STILLWATER. What do you expect?
In all these decades, no one else has ever said a word to him about this?!? His wife, his friends, no one?!?🤯 Wow. And it was always a slur against gay people. It was used to call someone gay as a slam. Matt knows that.🙄
Why would he even say that out loud
He needed a child to call him out and educate him like it was some amazing revelation he’d never considered. What an embarrassment.
It’s like he wants to be forgiven for being a dick, and also, condoning a rapist!
I didn’t know this and I’m so glad you shared- further inspiration for me to stop cussin!!!
🎥👽🤭
A 50 year old man wants to pretend he JUST learned homophobic slurs were “wrong” from his CHILD, and expects us to congratulate him? Nope. Uh uh. Nada.
Does he want a medal?
Yes and his generation also needs to stop calling people ret**ded or a re**rd as well. The fact that he needed his daughter to enlighten him says a lot about him. I thought these Hollywood Celebs started the Woke movement. Yet they seem to be the ones that need to be woke,
the fact that his child had to teach him, a grown ass man not to use a slur against the gay community is disgusting!
Weak!
