Recently there were hundreds of complaints about two guys kissing before 9pm to the BBC. It was chaste, came with a warning before hand, and lasted around a second.
The comments were along the lines of:
"How do I explain this to my child?", "filth like this is disgusting and sets a bad example to children"
Another, Pat, wrote: 'I had to explain to my seven-year-old son what was happening. He now thinks he is gay because he kisses his dad.'
In a statement, the BBC stood by its decision to include the (pretty tame) kiss as they endeavor to represent all relationships the same way.
I just want to know why they think they are doing good by protecting people from this, and who are they?
Don't gay people pay their TV fee, and what of gay teenagers? don't they deserve to be represented and shown this?
The first time I saw gay people kiss it traumatized me. I was probably about 20.
So who are these people? and why does fictionalized murder, straight sex and real life violence on the news not bother them.
