I think it was essential to the story.
I think the fumbling and the sort of animal immediacy of it kind of made it out to be what it was, two guys who really wanted this to happen but weren't quite sure how to go about it.
Heck, there are more explicit heterosex scenes in 90% of the movies these days.
I mean, they pull each other's shirts off, there are a couple of grunts, and that's it.
It ain't no big thang.
What the movie really explores best is the pain of the closet - of trying to play to everyone else's expectations instead of your own heart.
Michelle Williams was brilliant, by the way.
