DEAN CAIN'S GAY ROLE A SEXUAL EYE-OPENER

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) -- Former "Superman" star Dean Cain may be a sex symbol -- but there are still some things he's naive about in the bedroom. Cain confesses to "The Advocate" magazine that until he played a gay man in the new indie flick, "The Broken Hearts Club," he had no idea that the passive gay partner is referred to as a "bottom." Other fun facts about Cain... -- As a child, he claims other kids teased him by calling him "Deanie Weenie." -- Cain admits he received a lot of fan mail from gay guys when he played "Superman" and says their letters were "the sweetest and nicest." -- Finally, he says the most unheroic thing he ever had to do while wearing the Superman costume was to go to the bathroom using a special trap door built into the suit.
