A new d*ck pick of Jonathan Bennett popped up on one of my celebrity sites, so I checked out his Instagram to see if he was a good candidate for a profile.
Whoa, what a surprise. You can usually identify a gay actor from his social media posts (I only check Instagram and Facebook). Straight guys begin their taglines with "married to the most incredibly gorgeous woman in the world" and post 3,000 pictures of the two holding hands, kissing, going to formal events, celebrating holidays, and discussing how much they love each other. Gay guys keep mum; they post a lot of photos with women, and maybe one in a hundred with their boyfriend, but they don't tell us who he is. Even when they are out; I guess they don't want the homophobic pushback.
He also invites us to try out his Diet Coke and his butt, but you have to really read between the lines to deduce gay identity from that..jpg)
But Jonathan Bennett: the first 40 posts on his Instagram mention his husband 13 times and show him 10 times (including two kissing shots).
1. He's been around forever
The teenage Bo Duke, who joins forces with his teenage cousin Luke (Randy Wayne) to save Uncle Jesse's farm in the Dukes of Hazzard prequel, The Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning (2007).
The hetero horny Van Wilder, living it up and getting girls as the teenage version of the Ryan Reynolds character, in the prequel Van Wilder: Freshman Year.
Take Buddy Keaton: The first 40 posts on his Instagram display no men at all, but 15 show him hugging, kissing, being licked by, and going to the beach with women.

So who is this guy who is so completely out in an era where most gay guys closet their social media?
