How Queer

This is the first article on "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" that I actually think says something interesting. And gets why I think the idea of the show (I admit to not having watched it; note that I said "idea") is offensive.

Then again, I am pretty much opposed to reality TV in general.

I actually find it a sweet, cute show. Of course, I'm a fan of the makeover/redesign branch of the reality genre to begin with.

It's not worth getting offended over -- it's just one more step towards sexuality being a non-issue.

That was a good article ... saw it this morning and it made me chuckle. However, Queer Eye is an unexpectedly good program. Give it a try.
