I do, however, think that Sir Ian <I>is</I> above placing his own homosexuality ahead of the film's intentions, the dynamic between characters, etc. I find Elrond's assertion curious, because it specifically addresses Sir Ian's sexual orientation, as opposed to general human nature. If you adopt Elrond's logic, that would mean that we should interpret Galadriel kissing Frodo on the forehead in FotR as something Cate Blanchett did "for fun," because she is a hererosexual female.
