Is it going too far....

[The Lone Gunman]

As regulars on this board will know I am pro gay issues.

I am concernd at just how much time is spent on gay relationships on TV at the moment.
This week I watched Eastenders, Mistresses and Shameless. All of which had leading characters who are gay or lesbian or are having issues with their sexuality. All of which had major topics covering gay ad lesbian issues.

Now I am supportive of gay issues and rights. I thoroughly believe that they should be recognised and represented in all forms of media, but last night I felt like being gay or lesbian was being actualy promoted.

Have we gone too far?

Eastenders, Mistresses and Shameless

Well there is your problem.

I was going to say "no, I don't think its on TV too much" but I don't watch any of those and watch naff all TV anyway.

I personally think that there could be a bit more girl on girl action.

I don't mind what they get up to as long as it's not in my face or forced down my throat

Your missing a firaly crucial one there.

[NotAllThere]

Yes. Though perhaps there's no-one in the lives of the writers who is secure in their heterosexual identity. So they think they're just reflecting real society.

There are certain homosexual groups who at one end of the promotional scale, would argue that it is necessary to have positive promotion to overcome society's prejudices, which I could have some sympathy with, and at the other end, seem to have a political manifesto seeking to destroy any aspect of heterosexuality in modern culture.

You have missed out if you have not been watching Mistresses. It has been top telly and Hot Lezzers to boot.

It's not an illness, it's not a "difference", it's merely a sexual preference!

Why all the fuss?
