Gay writers must be involved. Bet they got a tingle out of putting that in the script.
Kevin Spacey seems a little gay, so he probably enjoyed it.
A real Christian would have refused to do this.
After all, how do you represent spitting in the face of Someone who died for you.
Black Sails on Starz had to have a homo angle—and this show is about 1700s pirates!
The love that must not be named now won’t shut the heck up.
Yeah, I’m sick to death of it, too.
My bet is that the former Mrs. Sean Penn/Robin Wright had creative control over this season. Look how her own character meshes with Season 3’s professional-victim Claire Underwood. All the inane political sub-plots sounded like something straight out of Sean Penn’s tiny-but-fevered mind.
Is the ship called "The Raging Queen" by any chance?

I’d be surprised if there are ‘any’ shows nowadays not written by gays. Everything has that kind of self-consciously bitchy/sarcastic/detached-irony tone to it, in terms of dialogue and performances. I find it all rather insufferable, in both its immaturity and unmanliness. And it’s one of the reasons I vastly prefer vintage fare.
