I generally hate this sort of line in fiction... I'm aware that this sort of thing happens rather frequently IRL, but there's so little LGBT representation in fiction (and even less *good* LGBT representation) that it can come off as seriously dismissive and sometimes actively insulting. It also feeds into the whole 'being gay is a choice and if you wish hard enough you can 'get over it'.

But I like it in this case. I don't really know what makes it different. It's just the whole vibe of the scene, I guess.

And it's Stanley Tucci.

I think it's partly the vibe of the scene and also the character himself. He and the mother are AMAZING. They make a point of being very open and accepting of their daughter and her friends and trust her to know her own heart and mind. The dad being open about the fact that everyone is equal and there should be no judgment and even he as "a little too straight"(as the mother said) as he is even enjoyed the company of men in the past. The daughter is aware of the Kinsey scale so it's assumed her parents were very open about fluid sexuality and that labels weren't as important.

But yeah for MOST other characters/scenes/etc? Saying that... no. But in THIS scenario? It made a weird and adorable amount of sense.
