Brad Pitt's Brother Talks About Their Mother's Anti-Gay Marriage Letter


The other Pitt, Doug Pitt, was on Today this morning to pimp out his dorkafied viral video for Virgin Mobile Australia, and Matt Lauer brought up the anti-gay, anti-abortion and anti-Obama letter his conservative Christian mom Jane Pitt wrote to the editor of her local newspaper in Missouri. Doug didn't respond by making the same eye roll you make when one of your family members posts some "let me reach for the emancipation papers" shit on Facebook. Doug said this instead:

"Moms and dads and kids agree to disagree all over the world, so why would our family be any different? There can be healthy discussion when people disagree with you, and I think there should be. The bad thing is when it turns into venom and negativity and we don't have that in our family. It's open discussion, we can learn from each other ... maybe you learn something."

I'm not sure I'd call it totally healthy when Jane Pitt screams at Brad, "Your labia-licking heathen' whore of a fiancee's soul will burn in the depths of hell and Lucifer will use it as his lube!", but that's probably just me.

All of this has made me grateful that the most controversial thing my mom and I fight about around the Thanksgiving table is which Dynasty goddess is the hottest. It shouldn't even be an argument, but she's still Team Krystle. I know, it's a problem.

OK Dog: Why is it that so many lesbian women use a strap on. Why do you need that if you were matched as nature set forth.

....it isn't natural on any level to put a reproductive organ into the rectum. If you do it often enough, all kinds of issues result which are lifelong and probably very hard to live with.

^^^^^^^^^^^^

So gay guys are verboten but gay girls are not? Yeah, that makes sense. Can't have it both ways, biscuithead.

@ gladyslove ,

I for one read your entire post and there is no rational discussion to be had with someone who advocates bigotry. It is like trying to have a calm and rational discussion with a racist who is pro slavery and segregation. Dont for one second think that just because you are polite with your bigotry it makes you an ..."intelligent" person whose words donr carry any weight.

Perhaps I am able to appreciate humor and wit. People are not just black or white so to speak but all the shades of grey in between.

The reason I believe that homosexuality is abnormal is simple. I live on a ranch that raises many types of livestock; primarily goats and show horses. When breeding time comes, the stallions and billys are not breeding the females in their rectums unless they are first time breeders and that is a momentary "whoops". Same for humans; it isn't natural on any level to put a reproductive organ into the rectum. If you do it often enough, all kinds of issues result which are lifelong and probably very hard to live with.

You pretty much speak only from a limited pool of experience, from what I can tell. Just because you feel a certain way about something does not make it truth. It is not like Barbie and Ken are natural. Barbie is based off a German sex doll.

gladyslove, for all of your anti-gay blather that you are trying sooooo hard to spew, you seem to forget that this blog is owned and written by a guy who is gayer than a unicorn faerie dancing on a rainbow during Solstice at Stonehenge. Ergo, your points are moot because if you really were anti-gay, you wouldn't be reading a blog written by a glittery sparklehead. IOW, no one takes you seriously.

Also, I will wager that when Brad Pitt is an older man and his children are adults he will gravitate back to those Midwestern values that he was raised with. It is human nature that we embrace our parents' and grandparents' values (if it is a functional loving family).

Fortunately, I got to play with Ken and Barbie when they first came out and they were so popular; we loved Bubblecut Barbie in her amazing sparkle gowns.

I can't understand that the people who support gay rights or abortion are so very venomous, shrill and militant other than because on a deep level they know it is abnormal and wrong."

You ever stop to consider that they are "venomous, shrill, and militant" b/c they have to compete with the "venomous, shrill, and militant" people who consider them to be deviants who don't deserve the same rights as everyone else? Don't project.
They're tired of being hated for no reason. You can say you don't hate them all you want...ok, you hate their "behavior". Reason? An actual logical reason? Someone's sexuality is part of who they are! Who they fall in love w. is biological. I honestly cannot imagine and of my gay friends as straight. If you dislike someone's "gayness", then, yes, you dislike him or her. Put the shoe on the other foot & think about how ridiculous it would sound if someone said that about a straight person. Everyone in the world wasn't meant to reproduce...there are a lot of people who shouldn't have. Just b/c I'm here b/c two people sexed each other, that doesn't mean that I'm meant to reproduce (childless by choice). Have you ever thought that perhaps homosexuality is nature's way of maintaining population control?

And to answer a few questions: why would it matter if one man wanted to marry several women (if, and only if, it were not a FLDS situation w. the abuse and whatnot) or if a bunch of men wanted to marry? They're all consenting adults, right? You forgot to throw in the "What if someone wanted to marry their pet???" scenario, too. The slippery slope thing is getting so. old.

Civil unions are the same thing as "separate but equal" from the civil rights era. It's still discrimination! What if they had a "straights only" bathroom or water fountain? Would that be ok, too?

Btw, Freedom of Speech doesn't apply to spewing bigoted hate against another. It refers ONLY to the right of citizens to speak out against their govt.

@ gladyslove,

what have gay people ever done to you that you hate on them to the point where you think you have the right to deny them a freedom; a choice? Such as getting married? Who are YOU to be judging anyone on whether the life they lead and whom they choose to love is a virtue or a vice; a sickness or natrual? Good or bad. Really, who are you? Who is your kind that thinks it is ok to dictate to others, who have done you no harm - or this society for that matter - how they should conduct their lives.

Last i looked it wasnt gay people who ruined the economy or conned us into a fraudulent war or impeded science and knowledge and education and stood in the way of stem cell research that could save millions of lives. Speak of murder. Last i looked, it wasnt gays who engaged in bigotry, hate mongering and disrespecting and humiliating women into getting vaginally probed becasue they want to have the freedom to choose what to do with their uterus and vagina. Gay people have done nothing to anyone, they are never present and rarely influence public policy. On the contrary, the damn CHRISTIAN mormon church put prop 8 on the ballot so that assholes like you get to vote on the civil rights of a minority segment of the population.

You have no reason to hate on gays or even have the slightest right or justification ot judge them and tell them how to or how not to conduct their lives. Make sure you achieve your own salvation with diligence and let others be. The essence of peace is freedom. We all have a short time on this earth being what we are and no one has the right to tell others how they should conduct their short existence. As long as ones actions dont harm others, no one has the right to put a stop to them based on THEIR narrowminded, or even educated, views.

If you think that being a narrowminded bigot is a virtue or s mere matter of opinion, you are dumber than you lead on.

Ok. You have a first amendment right to that opinion of yours. However, some of us...MOST of us...that adore Michael K, his gayness, his snark, his amusing writing...don't appreciate it when people come here and make derisive comments about him, his blog, or his loyal readers. So, if in fact, you are so far right in your thinking...what in the FUCK are you doing here? There are plenty of blogs with like-minded narrow-ass people like you, surely you'd feel more welcome there?

CandyPerfumeGirl's picture

Oh there we go again. Bigots trying to justify their bigotry and subtle and polite hate mongering under the umbrella of "free speech" and "healthy discussions". As if there was a grey area in terms of how bad homophobia and bigotry are. This is like some racist during segregation saying that jim crow laws are ok and supporting them just another totally valid opinion everyone should respect. Like there is a healthy and tactful way to justify legislated discrimination and racism. What the fuck...

Maybe not, but you're definitely a fucktard. If you believed in science, you'd see that there is homosexuality in nature. Why can't two consenting adults who LOVE EACH OTHER get married? Because you disagree with it? Nope, not good enough. You're entitled to your beliefs, but you shouldn't impose them on others who don't believe like you do - your statement about heterosexuals is ridiculous and laughable.

A few religious idiots shouldn't dictate SECULAR law.

We're not a fucking theocracy, last I checked.

BTW, you're a fucking sinner, dimwit. You're reading a gay man's blog.

my parents are pretty open and accepting, but my inlaws are soooo conservative, and tbh I've given up on trying to argue with them. The good thing is that when my kids hear them speak they are just as shocked which means I'm doing something right.

I must say though, if we ever got famous I'd definitely use that as an excuse to exorcise them from our lives.
just sayin.
Until then, I'll keep biting my tongue at family gatherings.

She's definitely gotten a lot of mileage out of it. It's fine that she has an opinion and it's possible to disagree with her without calling her names or something but I think they should realize that when you are "debating" whether one segment of the population has equal rights there will be negativity.

Romney really does need everything he can get but I don't really support Obama either. It's really clear that while there appear to be two parties they are two factions of the same thing and they are financed by the same people. When you see big companies donating half a million to Obama and half a million to Romney, you know... it sort of looks like whoever gets in there is going to at least be under some pressure to do some favors. I can't bust a gasket over it. They said I might have high blood pressure so I'm not trying to get upset by what some random hillbilly that happens to be Jennifer Anderson's ex-mother-in-law happens to think.

Some of you are getting angry at a comment that I specifically directed at poopele..the same person who has Mitt Romney the dickhead on his photo and a caption that says "everything is gonna be all white" but yet called me an ignorant douchebag. This made it very easy for me to see who the uber religious conservatives are.
