I don't watch the show, but even the ads for this that I have seen make fun of both gay and straight men. For the life of me, I can't see why gays would be so thrilled with this. It makes them a laughingstock.

Good point - it seems gays have become today's "minstrels". Good for a song, a dance, and a laugh.
Yeah queers, give us your show tunes, your skating medals, and your manicured townhomes. But stay out of our pulpits and our childrens butts.

I really don't think they care about how straight America views them. Do you think the queer bikers in assless chaps marching in the multitude of Gay Pride parades care? They have a lifestyle to promote!

This is not innocuous. This is a textbook case of normalization and cultural erosion.
