7. I've post all kinds of shit over there.
It's so funny. These people will put with murder, adultry (w/ a male MINOR and an adult woman) and so on ..... but a gay kiss??? Heavens to Betsy!!!

I love some of the "some of my best friends are ...." type post.

I hope none of these gals posting at ABC have queen hair dressers!

5. Go figure.
I'll bet if it was a gay fight they would have loved it. I can't go read that stuff, I will just have to take your word for it. I don't watch that show either so let us know what happens.

I hate these nutty people. They really should spend some time looking inward.

6. But they didn't get upset at the story line of one of the hotties(forgive
me, I don't watch much) having sex with the underage child of another show hottie last season? Hey, from what I've seen of this show, it bores me. I've never liked shows that strain to be quirky.

Most fans seemed to be, "Buh bye, bigot!"

11. I've been saying that.
But you're right the majority are supportive of the kiss.

The rest can kiss my ass.

"On another not (note) I am torn about the seens (scenes) with Andrew. ...
It is not up to her to approve of whom he chooses to date and if it embarrases (embarrasses) her then that's her problem. ...
But Andrew as frustating as you dad found your mother he always respected her and bringing anyone to your parents home is unexceptable (unacceptable)"

Nothing like ignorance married to intolerance.

13. It was great!
Welcome to the suburbs. A kiss between two boys was hardly the raciest part of the show! Nice though.

Edited on Mon Jan-09-06 01:38 PM by Ayesha
This show includes murder, adultery, and lies and deceit up the wazoo but these people are freaking out that two men kissed.

We sure do have some f-ed up "morals" in this country.

"I have had it, 98% of U.S. population is straight.
apparently 98% of hollywood is gay,and feel the general population wants to view thier lifestyle. I am one of millions fed up. I will no longer view this program, I will let the sponsers know that I will not purchase their items.

29. these people get offended by a gay kiss

20. This is typical of their "selective moral outrage"
Edited on Mon Jan-09-06 01:54 PM by BattyDem
Gabrielle committed adultery with a 17 year old boy - no problem.
Susan burned down her neighbor's house and said nothing (though it was an accident) - no problem.
Carlos ended up in jail for fraud (or was it tax evasion?) - no problem.
Andrew routinely disrespects and even blackmails his own mother - no problem.
Lynette got addicted to her son's ADD medication - no problem.
Andrew killed Carlos' mother in a hit-and-run while driving drunk (and he got away with it because Bree covered it up) - no problem.
Paul killed Mrs. Huber (and Zach's mother) - no problem.
Rex cheated on Bree - no problem.
Instead of rushing Rex to the hospital, Bree took her sweet time getting dressed and made the bed while he had a heart attack - no problem.
Bree sat and did nothing while George was dying (ok, he was nuts ... but still) - no problem.
Mike kidnapped Paul at gunpoint and left him alone in the desert (ok, he deserved it ... but still) - no problem.
The Applewhites hide a mentally-challenged murderer in their basement (and keep him confined against his will) - no problem.
All five women ROUTINELY deceive and manipulate the people in their lives - no problem.

Two guys kiss ... and they start ranting about decency! :eyes:

35. Don't foget the creep who broke into the Applewhites' house....
The one who fell through and impaled himself on their unstable stairs (leading into the basement), while trying to kidnap the mentally-disable son.

22. What's funny about this
is that the guy who plays Andrew was on Soap Talk, (was surfing) and he is straight, but he and the other actor (I guess he's a soap star) decided to not be prissy and just go for it. The kiss last night was not the usual somewhat chaste kisses we normally see on TV between gays, but a very sensual, hot kiss.

23. ah ha ha hahhahaha
my goodness. Normal is not and has never been the norm. "Normal" is highly subjective, and an unreasonable and rarely found "ideal". Bigotry is more the norm than normal, and ignorance is positively EVERYWHERE.

It's quite normal in my life for a coupla guys to mack down! Bible thumping bigots are not normal in my world, and yet we are forced to listen to their perversions and delusions all the time, and during prime time too! I sure as hell don't want my kids learning about the bible in any way other than a cautionary tale.

"perverts" . . .

Would't you like to personally know someone who's handle is "moralviewer". I wouldn't - that's someone who probably also thinks morality is universal and that us immoral homos just know we're immoral and flaunt it anyway.

oh boy. These people are on the brown AND the blue acid.

But all the better, because gay teens are underrepresented on prime-time series television - - compared to gay/lesbian adults who usually get the main storylines.

I would so totally do both of them (Andrew and Justin them)! :D

39. How old are they? Would we get in trouble?
Although with guys, I think over 16 they pretty much can't be led stray--they do the leading! At least in the morally depraved time we live in--thank God!

a Republican?

If true, that should really piss them off! NOT!

26. He's gay, but not sure if he's a Republican...
...did recall an article when it first came out how he felt the show appealed to everyone--liberals because it's campy, conservatives because even though the women fool around, they tend to get caught and have to pay for their "crimes."

31. Yep. I've heard him describe himself as a ...
"Conservative Republican" but I'm willing to bet he means an old-style conservative, not a neocon.
