Actually Hip Hop kind of did the same thing earlier. Yes, there's an actual educational documentary about this that we watched in a Media and Gender class. 😆

Oh. God. Geet. My friends went to war because of that show...Uff, had to play Switzerland, trying to calm Mahiii obsessed pals & make peace among those who couldn't care less...I must be the only straight gal on the planet who was not turned on by GC/Maan...

OMG after awhile that all you heard in the show. My friends and I used to call it stop & Go Mahiii. That was so annoying more then anything. The PH other show on SP is no different it has the same angry young man with a girl wearing a duppatta the size of a thread and when it falls off she feels naked 🤣 Give me a freaking breake 🥱 Rabba Ve 😆

Oh please you're not the only one at all. I got drawn to the show cause of the content of honor killing and in the beginning the story was good but is just started changing into something else unrecognizable. But isn't that the case with all these cv promise something and give something else

Well, to each his own...I went to school where there was a huge LGBT population represented on campus; they ttly changed my perceptions on a lot of stereotypes & for that, I'm a better person. But there has to be sensitivity when these issues are introduced in the mainstream media, across various mediums...Ignorance still remains widespread & it's so easy for ppl to create & hang-on to caricatures based on some stereotype.

I'll watch it later, Bidz. Same goes for Sundas' vids on the EDT. I have to be off now.

Anj, I didn't for you to go read my posts in Maryada, and I didn't mean it in a testy manner. But I'm just clarifying that my views on sexuality is pretty broad, and what I was saying was not a sterootype of how gay people look and act--but the change in Media and how men are now presented.

Wow Lik you never cease to amaze me

Hip hop is just too afraid of everything for nothing.

I remember the reporter was interviewing Doc Dre about all the controversy on eminem and the ask him if he could imagine himself gay he say no there is no need for that cause it would never happen. Dre never give the reporter the time to finish the question and then Eminem did his Grammy performance with Elton John

Lik, I ttly get you...I've read about gay aesthetics too..not just for the male gay population, but in general...For every discussion on 'fems' out there, a 'butch' girl/woman is typecast as well. I prefer not to talk much on this subject particularly on an open forum like this because not everyone has our views; not that there is anything wrong in discussing it. It's just that each one of us is at some level in our understanding on the spectrum. You have younger cousins from India who have progressive views on the matter...but, on the same token, I absolutely don't...That's not to say views are not changing, but it's slow in its ability to affect mainstream thinking.

Andrew Sullivan is a revelation, albeit a controversial one...
