She’s saying somebody said something homophobic to her.
People don’t usually bring up homophobia to “get attention”, any more than people lie about sexual harassment. It sounds like you haven’t learned anything from all the Weinstein stuff: actors don’t bring up harassment for publicity. They way more often hide it to protect their careers. They don’t bring it up because the main type of publicity it generates is angry men saying they’re lying for publicity.
So what? This is a stretch and you know it. Show me where straight service members are told to not even hold hands with their romantic partners in their everyday lives out of uniform. Even if it’s just Hollywood, asking someone to not hold hands when it’s same-sex affection when it’s okay for other actors is still pushing a homophobic double standard.
It was homophobic advice. She didn’t say it was Marvel Studios that told her, and she gets more personal bother from mentioning it than keeping silent.
