What if its a movie about a gay person who was shunned by their family once they came out or something? Wouldnt it be better to cast somebody who actually went through that instead of a straight guy?
Most people experience some form of shunning in life, the reason is almost irrelevant when it comes to portraying emotional reactions to shunnings. Also, if that person is experienced with being shunned that doesn't mean they'll be able to pull it off on camera if they don't have the talent, or they may not be able to achieve other facets of the character more important than genital inflammation.

Also, hopefully that's not what the whole movie is about 'cause this hypothetical movie sounds like it would be pretty one note tbh
