Hoofer Dam -- My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

I read it.

And that's one movie I'm boycotting and making sure I get people to boycott it.

Assuming boycotting has ever worked.

Take a look at when people tried to boycott the Olympics for similar reasons.

It's not supposed to work. It's to show I demonstrating against exposing kids to Politically Controversial things to make them think a certain view is right over the other.

Some 404 to close off the thread.

I think there should be more gays in TV, but only so much. Having a gay in every damn show would be a very innacurate over-representation of the amount of gays in the population. It would be like making sure a memeber of every race is in the cast of every show, which would just be ludicrous.

"I'm fine with gays having some representation, just as long as you don't threaten heterosexual privilege too much."

Heterosexual privilege my ass, you realise heterosexuals are an overwhelming majority? I'm all for representing the gay minority, but not falsley make them out as a majority when they are not.

Not agreed.

Did anyone actually read the article I posted? It doesn't seem like it.

I read it.

A bi person boycotting gay representation?
Well, there were also women who fought the 19th Amendment, so I can't be too surprised.

...when the heck is that mod getting here?

Moar Cheese.

Hopefully this debate attracts a mod.

Yes the bigots will make a fuss, so what? However, I believe change best comes gradually, just make it subtle, then build upon it.

Because it's a kids TV show. Damn it.

You want gays watch Modern Family (Best show ever)

Kids won't grow up to be bigots if they learn that LGBT individuals are actually normal people. How shocking...

Should LGBTQ people be given representation in modern TV? Yes, they should.

Because not doing so creates in inferiority complex within the LGBTQ community. They feel that what they are is unnatural as it does not recieve the same amount of attention, in fact little to no attention, in most media. However, they should do it in a way that represents how many LGBTQ people live today. Around 10% of the world population are LGBTQ, therefor they should recieve SOME recognition in modern media.

There is little comparison. You can't pretend to speak for the entire gay community, can you.

But in a kids TV Show.

DOES NO ONE FIND IT WRONG To expose kids to Politically Controversial things to make them think a certain view is right over the other.

I didn't know that teaching tolerance and acceptance was so horrible, but clearly a world filled with hatred and oppression is much better.

Yes, it is. However, kids aren't gonna be faced with political controversy when they have a friend who comes out of the closet.
