Luke Grimes. True Blood. Is this Discrimination?

[Shiversblood]

Luke Grimes.

Last year he was cast and played as a Vampire on True blood. His character was a vampire on true blood and had sex with a hot female vampire on the show.

However, he become extremely enraged when he read the new script for this year, and simply refused to do it. He told the writers, you have to change this. Its okay Lafayette is attracted to my character but it cant be mutual. The writers refused to rewrite the entire season, so he quit the show, and they were forced to hire a new actor to play his role this year.

I watched Sundays true blood, and his character engaged in homosexual male activity with Lafayette. So Luke Grimes quit his job just because he hates homosexuality and did not want to kiss and have sex with a black man on the show.

Is this Homophobia and blatant discrimination?

He knew what this show was all about when he took this job, so why the sudden outrage and quitting his job over this? He knew what Vampires do.

Heres a link.

Yes, it is homophobia and no, it is not discrimination.

Not discrimination. If true, the guy seems to be a major hypocrite, however, and he's far from alone. How's on-screen pretend gay sex "worse" than on-screen pretend insta hetero sex with a woman his character is not married to? Fornication is fornication. And then he went to perform in the book-to-screen adoption of the erotic bestseller Fifty Shades of Grey? My verdict: Mainstream hypocricy.
