The message worked and that's the important part of it, no matter what lies beneath.
No one can expect that someone standing up for tolerance is jewish, black or gay himself.
They made a difference and that counts.
Even though some people would love to turn the clock back and all those who came out or started living their lives as they wanted to would go back in the closet, shut up and stay alone for the rest of their lives or marry the "traditional" way and so on.
It doesn't matter whether Y/L were a couple or not, we believe in the message of a movie knowing well that it's not reality we see.
I'm thankful for what they did and I don't give a damn what they do in private, same goes for Ivan, even though looking at Pasha reminds me of the Placebo song "Change your taste in men" - but that's not really my business.
