Advocate: Actor Josh Hutcherson stars in a video for the "Straight But Not Narrow" campaign aimed specifically at young heterosexual males to help combat homophobia. Hutcherson recently played the son of Annette Bening and Julianne Moore in the box office hit The Kids Are All Right (Josh Hutcherson: Straight, Not Narrow).
About SBNN: There have been a number of great campaigns and charities that have recently emerged to show support to gay youth & teens. However, we noticed one significant niche missing in the efforts…. the message to the young, straight male. It’s an unfortunate reality that most of the bullying and harassment that gay teens face comes from them. It is for this reason that we are building a campaign that is primarily directed to the young, straight male by using comedy and their peers to positively influence their views on LGBT teens (Straight But Not Narrow).
