2. What's with the single quotation marks, ie, 'gay'?

Not hatin', it's just that that's the way the haters frame it when they talk about gay people or marriage equality.

Yes, I know they were actors, who may or may not have been gay. Still, wondering whether that ('gay') has become accepted as has substituting "homosexual" for "gay" in articles.

Thanks.

3. Direct quote from HuffPo, and I think it would be wrong to leave it out, since they were actors. nt
