Nah, Phil Robertson kicked the gay mafias door in. Expect a lot more people to speak their mind without repercussions
Its the American way. Truth, justice, mom, etc

I don't think it is a good example for kids to watch that on TV," Galavis said.
BUT.... a game show where people are paid to compete to be the boyfriend of a man they've spent very few hours with is just the example we want to show our kids. The finalists, having impressed him over three months of filming, spend the night with the Bachelor in the 'Fantasy Suite.' And right on cue, he picks one to propose to in holy matrimony and spend the rest of his life with.
What is a better example for kids than that?

because you're uncomfortable with gays.
I again must question your reading comprehension skills
Most of the things that upset my kids have to do with gore, horror, and violence. It if is sex it's hetero.
Why would you have a problem with limiting that IN ADS AND PROMOS???

I didn't, but given that the idea that anyone is shoving anything in your and your children's faces is absurd, you do demonstrate a dominant interest in yourself manifested in the insane idea that you and your children are in any way someone else's motive for putting something you find objectionable on tv. It's narcissistic for you to think and speak that way. You are mocked.
Sure you did.

For you to say that your living in San Francisco is proof that you have no problem with gays far outdoes "I'm not racist--I have two black friends" as a transparent piece of denial.

How many television shows are about boring, generally unfunny couples making ~$70k/yr with 2 kids?
"This week, On the Normal Show, Jimmy does the family's taxes while Jenny drops the kids off at soccer practice!"

I didn't say being "normal" was funny or not boring.
That reminds me of the book I found years ago that was printed in the 40s entitled, "Thank God I'm a neurotic". One of the chapters was "Being normal is nothing to brag about". It even had a test you could take to find out how neurotic you are. I still have the book and maybe some day I'll post the test so everyone can find out how neurotic they are.

You actually did say homosexuality is normal. In your post to me on 1/18/14 at 3:05 PM you said:

I assumed you agreed with your own interpretation of the message and were saying that homosexuals are as normal as you and me and therefore, homosexuality is normal.

You are grasping at a straw in your futile attempt to save your arse.
In the same post you made the comment:
quote:
Nobody cares that you're uncomfortable with gay people.
I responded to that comment by saying if that was the case then I wouldn't be living in San Francisco which as you know is the "gay" Mecca.
If I was a racist and felt uncomfortable with black people then the last place I would live would be where I knew a lot of black people lived.

I hope they do it. No one will watch it and it will prove how little America cares about the gay community.

You didn't even quote what you actually said and quoted something else in your futile attempt to make it appear like you didn't say anything about homosexuality being normal.
quote:
A person's sexual preference, as far as whether he prefers men or women sexually, is not the defining character trait that you are imagining it to be (you're doing this because you are abnormally uncomfortable with homosexuality).
You are the one who implied homosexuality is normal by your interpretation of the message that was being sent.
Since heterosexuality is the norm, otherwise, the Human Race would not exist then homosexuality is the exception to the norm and therefore, not normal.
As a heterosexual, I have the normal not abnormal feeling of uncomfortability with homosexuality.
For you to label my normal heterosexual uncomfortability with homosexuality as abnormal is just your futile attempt to accuse me of being homophobic.
quote:
There are plenty of normal people who are gay. Gayness doesn't define whether or not a person is normal or not normal.
Sure it does.
Since heterosexuality is normal (the norm) and homosexuality is the exception to the norm then if someone is a homosexual they are not normal.
quote:
Whether or not homosexuality is "normal" can be debated, but it's a silly debate because someone else's sexuality is not of your or my concern.
You can sophistically debate all you want that homosexuality is normal but something that is the exception to the norm does not make it the norm.
Someone else's sexual preference is of my concern because I have the right to associate with whomever I want and if I choose not to associate with homosexuals for whatever reason then I have that right even if it offends assholes like you.
quote:
Your unhealthy obsession with homosexuality is making it difficult for you to comprehend these simple and obvious points. I believe that you have a problem.
There you go again trying to say that my normal heterosexual feeling regarding homosexuality is abnormal in your futile attempt to accuse me of being homophobic.
That dog won't hunt, dude.

You can't point it out because you never said it and now you are just trying to avoid having to admit that you never said it
