lol, ok well you can count on me for HoYay talk! I've never even seen Smallville, but the gayness on Firefly seems pretty apparent to me. I thought when I was watching that a couple of Inara's prospective clients looked like women. I think the fact that a Companion services both sexes has pretty much been implied, not to mention it's quite realistic so far into the future.
And poor Kaylee, with her misbegotten crush on Simon. I wrote a post here a few days ago about how gay Simon is but I think it disappeared when I changed my alias. He's always gazing yearnfully at Mal and Jayne, but seems bored and out of his element with Kaylee. And when Simon saw that Mal had been stabbed he was much more concerned about it than Inara was. He was all, "Are you alright?!" while running up to Mal, practically sweating out of fear. That goes a little above and beyond doctorly concern, if you ask me. In that same episode, Simon said of Mal, "He knows how to handle a sword, doesn't he?" C'mon, some lines just speak for themselves.
Warrick: You didn't have to wound that man.
Mal: Yeah, I know. It was just funny.

you all read into this show far, far too much.
And quit being a homophobe Looney Toons. It doesn't speak well of your moral character.

I just re-watched this yesterday and I noticed it too. I mean I know Simon's a doctor so its not supposed to be a big deal when the first question he asks is whether someone is hurt, but his tone. He sounded so scared. It was really kind of cute. Now if Mal would just get over his silly, little Inara crush...

Simon? Gay? Prolly.
Come on Kaylee, see the man that Jayne is. He'll stand up for ya in a fight much more effectively than Simon anyway.
I don't condone homosexuality, but i don't condemn homosexuals or bisexuals. I also don't think that people should have others jumping down their throats because they express their opinion, however unpopular.
That said, LooneyTunes, you could have phrased your statements more diplomatically.

If you like HoYay, you have to watch Smallville. That show is homoeroticism in a bottle.
Out of curiosity, does anybody know if Michael Rosenbaum is...er...
? Because I know the writers have denied intending for Lex Luthor to be a homosexual, so why is he So Very Gay?

Man I've been meaning to check that show out for a long time, but I think I usually watch 24 instead. Great show, but no HoYay.
Re: lines speaking for themselves. I didn't even catch this one, I got it out of Shack's recap of "Shindig" at TWoP.
Inara: As with other situations, the key seems to be giving Jayne a heavy stick and standing back.
Shack: How can they give me lines like that and not expect me to make gay jokes?

New Firefly tomorrow! 
Warrick: You didn't have to wound that man.
Mal: Yeah, I know. It was just funny.

Ok, I just want to make three points...
Firstly, Simon's a Pansy. Take that either as being effeminate or gay if you like... It would certainly make for a more interesting show.
Secondly. Homosexuality is a species survival trait, rather than an individual survival trait. It's a gene that exists in all of us but gets triggered by certain environmental factors. It's intended to slow the growth of an overly sucessful species to prevent them outstripping their resources. As you get more and more tightly packed, more and more people become gay thus slowing the birth rate... Or at least it woukd if it weren't for surrogacy. Above is a theory of mine, not scientific certainty... But if it's right, then there should be fewer Homosexuals in the future.
Thirdly, if you want proof of the Mal/Jayne thing... Well, I can't prove they're shirt-lifters (I didn't mean that in a bad way) but don't you think it's curious... The Phallic symbolism? Mal has Serenity, and if the neck of that ship isn't phallic then I don't know what is! And Jayne has all those guns... Including Vera... What's the betting he has them by his bed so he can fondle them under the covers at night.
Ooohh!! And don't forget the knife he threatens Dobbs with in Serenity! That was an excessively big knife... It's obviously a manhood compensator.
Twelve spheres of unendurable brightness spalled the velvety blackness of space.

And then the spell was broken as Shannon Foraker looked up from her console from where she had just sent a seemingly innocent command to the main computers of State Security's finest Superdreadnoughts.
"Oops." She said.

That isnt right - its genetic, as previously mentioned, or chemical (It could be becuase of too much estrogen[men] or testosterone[women])

That's what I said. It's a gene that becomes more prone to dominance in higher density populations... Kinda like the Heat Shock gene... The proof is... Well... Only circumstantial, but if you think about it, ancient rome was fairly densely packed and they had a lot of homosexuality in the mix, just as it's far less prevailant in Third World countries today, due to the need to keep the birth rate high.
