Default Sexuality - Madonna

Is Madonna who is one of the richest people in the world wrong for being cool about gay people?

So, I'm gathering you are of the opinion that someone else's sexuality is your right to judge? And, you're saying it's wrong to be homosexual?

There are a few stanges thing about that question:
1) The idea that it is important what Madonna thinks about gay people in itself. Maybe it's important how Madonna effects other peoples thought about gays, but the opinions of stars are not that interesting.
2) The idea that Madonnas wealth has something to do with all that. Madonna is rather important for being a star with name recognition, whose views get reported in media.
3) The idea that there could be something wrong about gays.

Most enlightened people are cool about gays. Maybe she's one of them.
