EXPERT: BUFFY DOESNT MAKE WOMEN GAY
LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) Tongues are wagging about comments made by a Buffy The Vampire Slayer cast member who claims the show is turning women into lesbians. Amber Benson who plays Tara on the UPN show is convinced her lesbian love scenes with co-star Allyson Hannigan are so hot theyre turning some female viewers into lesbians. But one Los Angeles-based psychologist who treats gays who want to become straight says Bensons theory is ridiculous. Dr. Joseph Nicolosi says TV shows cant make people gay and the most that Buffy can do is inspire experimentation appealing to immature people. Either way, Benson insists she must be doing something right because she receives lots of lusty letters from ladies who say her character has made them feel its okay to be gay.
