If you’re wondering what that comment was about – its this article in the SMH about some joking radio commentary regarding one of the stars of the TV show ‘Queer Eye For The Straight Guy’ which some people took WAY too seriously. And to make things worse, whilst the ABA says the comment was not in breach of the code of conduct – this Administrative Decisions Tribunal has come out demanding printing and verbal apologies.
My point is, imagine the outcry if there was a TV show called “Straight Eye for the Queer Guy” – but, hey, if its the other way around its quality watching. Mind you, I would rather have my testicles slowly mauled by a gaggle of rabid geese than watch that pathetic drawl.
If you STAR in a show calling yourself QUEER then one would expect you can have a sense of humor about being gay. In fact – I am pretty sure Carson CAN take the comments with a smile. Its politically ‘correct’ activists that think they act on everyone’s behalf that can’t. Sexuality is funny; Get a grip [pun intended].
Actually, now I think of it – I would really find ‘Straight Eye’ hilarious.
