Does a explicit gay scene in the media affects you in a bad way?

[PostmodernProphet]

not at all.....I just fast forward.......

Was it some kind of evil eye gesture?

I was raised as a Lutheran by devout parents; never once heard anything about homosexuality, hate, or any of that from our pastor.

It wasn't anything nefarious. It was just a normal gay guys riding a bike together. Let me see if I can find that gay commercial.

Hmm there are no such results. Apparently the commercial is new. When I see it again, I'll upload.

They are now working gay couples into virtually every series on t.v.. My GF and I laugh whenever two guys are making out during a show. I don't care about their sexuality, but watching dudes kiss romantically kind of makes us laugh. In an 'eeewww' kind of way.

But...there's someone for everyone. Some people like skinny/heavy mates, and if you like the former you don't understand the attraction to the latter.

We don't judge, but it's still a little odd right now.

The only thing that really bothers me is the way the TV and commercial industry has jumped on the bandwagon like they always do, and pander to whatever the popular flavor of the day is.

Nothing new there, except the nature of who they are now pandering to has changed.

A high percentage of commercials nowadays depict mixed race couples or else the all the actors in them are black. That in itself is fine. I don't care about race or what racial mix any couple is. The problem afaic is, that if you were from another country or another planet, and you came here and watched TV for a couple of days, you'd think that everyone in America was either in mixed race marriages, black or gay.

If that were the reality of our society then fine. I'd expect these TV shows and commercials to reflect that reality.

But it's not our reality. The vast majority of couples, married or otherwise, are straight and over 60% of society is white.

When these pandering Hollywood and advertising suck ups go overboard trying to be politically correct while painting a false picture just to keep a small minority happy, it's just kind of galling.

I know right? It's a toxic sewer that just keeps on flowing and flowing with no sign of stopping.

I have a very, very few authors who are my favorites who understood/understand the essence nature of evil and horror. Stephen King is one of them. He understands the essence of evil. He can sense, smell, taste, hear and touch it. It's revolting and he wrote about it anyway cause yeah.

That's one of the best descriptions of King's writing I've ever heard.

I meant the gesture that you said the preacher made.

Not sure what statement I made you were referring to but yeah Jerry Falwell made a weird movement and behavior right in front of everyone and every one laughed hard, including my Mom!

[Edit] Oh yeah the gestures he made yeah. Let me know if I am right on the target.

And people ask why Stephen King looks the way he looks.

[AProudLefty]

Oh I just re-read my title. Yeah I think I should have explained what "explicit" means in the context. What I meant was that it was obvious. Just two gay men enjoying riding a bicycle together. All innocent.

What movement did he make? That's what I was referring to.

[AProudLefty]

I edited the title to remove the word, "explicit". Apparently it was past the editing/deleting period.

Yo Phanny can you fix my title to accurate reflect what I be talking about?

Yup I be havin Turkey in my belly and it ain't the Turkey ya thinkin about.

[AProudLefty]

Yeah I got what you meant after you asked me about it. He wasn't "my pastor". He was just a President and a founder of Liberty University.

Anyway, to answer your question, yeah he gave a stink eye, but not from front of his head, but from behind his head.

Then he proceeded to swivel his head in both directions as to seek what's behind him, almost Exorcist like, while grabbing the podium with both of his hands, like "Yo dude I hope I ain't dropping no soap".

OOOOOOOOH Yes yes. I forgot about asking y'all to guess the next part. Sorry!

I'll regather (If I can!!!!) and reply properly.

After forcing myself to sober up, despite being drunk, I re read my post and your reply, yup. I forgot to add the 2nd part.

Yes you have guessed correctly so +10 Internet points to you.

On the topic, it shows the terror they are feeling for no obvious reason at all. The brainwashing of the children reinforces that terror. They may be suppressed but they do pop up from time to time but they squash it every time or, as with politicians, they attempt to pass bills and laws about it to shield themselves and others from it.

If my posts do not make any sense, ask. But remember I am having a good Thanksgiving night, if you know what I mean.
