As Vito Spatafore sat in his cheap motel room on The Sopranos last Sunday, contemplating the firearm he had placed on his bedside table, it became clear that there are still jobs that are easier if you're not gay. In both pop culture and real life, we've been seeing gay men holding more and more regular old jobs lately.
Viewers of The Sopranos have long known Vito's secret, ever since Meadow Soprano's boyfriend Finn walked into a construction site early one morning and saw Vito and a security guard sharing a special moment in the front seat of a truck. While Finn may or may not know that Vito shot Meadow's last guy in the back of the head, he knows enough to pretend he didn't see anything.
