I WAS THINKING TODAY. WHY IS IT OK TO HAVE GAY PEOPLE ON TV? NO THAT'S NOT WHAT I WAS THINKING. WHAT I WAS THINKING, IS THAT IS IS OK TO HAVE GUY PEOPLE ON TV, BUT WHY IS IS NOT OK TO HAVE GAY TEENS ON TV? ARE THE TV PEOPLE AFRAID OF SOMETHING?
I READ THIS TODAY. WELL ACTUALLY I READ MORE BUT THIS IS IT IN A CONDENSED FORM.
WHY IS THE IDEA OF TWO BOYS KISSING SO THREATENING? WHY IS THE KIND OF RELATIONSHIP I HAD WITH MY HIGH SCHOOL BOYFRIEND STILL NOT REPRESENTED ANYWHERE IN THE AMERICAN MEDIA, SAVE FOR A COUPLE OF NOVELS AND CANCELED STERILE TV TEEN DRAMAS?
MAYBE IT IS CENTERED AROUND THE FACT THAT THE AMERICAN MEDIA SEEMS TO FOCUS ON CERTAIN ELEMENTS OF GAY CULTURE LIKE DRESSES,HAIR DRESSERS,QUEENS AND FASHION THEREBY TELLING THE GAY TEEN YOU BETTER LEARN TO SEW OR CUT HAIR OR LIVE WITH YOUR SECRET.WE RE WHAT WE ARE AND I FOR ONE DO NOT SEW OR CUT HAIR AND REFUSE TO LIVE WITH MY SECRET.
TILL NEXT TIME
