Has nothing to do with prejudice, they didn't think she could be a realistic heterosexual lead. That's why so much of Hollywood goes to extraordinary lengths to pretend to be straight. Women aren't going to go see Tom Cruise or George Clooney playing romantic leads if they find out they're gay. Just the way the world works.
