Well, here are some more props to give to the Gays and Lesbians. It’s about time there was more recognition for them. Now there is a new wave of concern over the media (television, music, movies, etc.) as it relates to Gays and Lesbians.
Check out Media Offer New Outlets For Gay Audiences to read about this.
But is it concern or recognition? I feel that the media has always been there. The acceptance factor (of course I’m talking of gays by straights) has not been there. Now that there is more hype concerning the Crossovers (i.e. Brokeback Mountain being the latest) of course there is more attention placed on this “gay culture.” (Ummm…Hi. There is no ‘gay culture’ unless one wants to seriously start calling every aspect of life a ‘culture’).
So, now we have dubbed this sudden interest of the gay life by straights a Crossover. What the fuck? There is a specific term to describe everything that happens!?! How said is that? And it sounds so trendy…..I think that’s what is really bothering me about it all.
There is no trend or culture. This is Life. And we all live a different Life.
