Hee, I had a similar discussion the other night at work! Someone mentioned Brokeback Mountain, and I said I wanted to see it. So the male coworkers were all 'why would you want to see a gay cowboy movie?'. My response was, of course, 'because they're two cute gay cowboys'. I had to point out that just as some men like the concept of two women together, that some women enjoy seeing/reading about two men (or more!) together. My more enlightened coworker agreed that he could see the sense behind that.

But they all went quiet when I told them my boyfriend would willingly go w/ me to the movie because when I'm 'happy', he's 'happy'.
