About AP's new and "improved" no-gays-need-apply movie:
> "There's not a flicker of sexual heat out of this guy. "
Ha! AP can't help but exude sexual heat! It's just that the target of
that heat was excised from the movie and, without a target, the heat
dissipates! <eg>

treated just like straight ones.)

No, that is not the context of this film version of the piece. The gay
aspects of Tides of War have been edited out of what is billed as Phantom
Below. As far as the folks seeing PB are concerned, AP's character has been
neutered.
Nina (since the intention of releasing a straight version of the film was
announced during shooting, how tough could it have been to film a couple
bits showing the character as a heterosexual being?)
