MGM musicals are known for being big, brassy, sassy musical humdingers. They're big and bold and bright and colorful and cheerful and ... very, very, very gay. Why is that, though? Well, it's thanks to a group of folks known within the industry as "Freed's Fairies."

At 8:40 you say Arthur Freed had a male partner for many years...? I nothing I've read matches that...Shirley Temple claims there was an incident in Freed's office when she was 12...

They told Sammy Davis the same thing, he could not openly date white women. When he defied them later, they drove him off the road which he lost an eye in that wreck, so the story goes. On the gay hollywood theory, you also have to think there is a degree of lower wages paid with the promise of protection, a safe work place. These are gated and guarded work places after all.
