I did not read Alan Nunn's letter (Opinion, May 25) but I did see Brighton: Out The Closet and found it both funny and interesting.

A heterosexual man, I have many gay friends. In Brighton and Hove, it is impossible not to have gay friends.

However, could the gay men of this city answer this one question which does bother me? Why is it, when gay men appear on TV programmes, they don't talk about love? They don't talk about friendship or companionship. They don't talk about the weather, friends, work, Brighton, food or anything else. Their sole subject matter is sex - different types of sex and where to get it - and I find this very boring and off-putting. Surely, all relationships should be based on love and friendship. Programmes such as Brighton: Out The Closet give the impression the gay men of Brighton are obsessed with sex.

A life based solely on sex is rather sad, whether the person be gay or heterosexual. So could the gay men in our community give me an answer to this? Do they feel some of their colleagues who appear on TV do harm to their image?
