Well Golly Gee. Do you think maybe the viewing public is just getting tired of that crap? After being inundated the last 10 12. 15 years?

12.8 percent is nearly 3 times the estimated population on LGBTQXYZ in the country.

Even Hollywood finally recognizes what sells, and what definitely does not sell.

That’s the trouble with fiction, it has to make sense. Real life, on the other hand, does not.

“Record low?” Well that would be zero since queers were not depicted in movies or on TV at all until relatively recently. But Leftists and the truth are not well acquainted, so I supposed saying “record low” with some percentage is perfectly normal in their warped world.

They’ve been trying to sneak in these freaks, and present them as normal, for over a decade now.

Whenever I watch a show with these oddballs be presented as normal, it goes off. I have a feeling that much of America does the same. They can only afford to lose so much money on their perverted social crusade.

The bottom line IS the bottom line. As long as we keep turning it off, they will be forced to not present it.

It must be all about perspective, because I feel like I can’t turn on TV/see a movie/read a book that DOESN’T have a gay character.

My husband and I were really enjoying the show Ozark on Netflix until - boom! - graphic gay scene. Turned it off and refuse to watch more. Same with another show whose name escapes me at the moment.

Meanwhile virtually every TV sitcom embraces LGBT characters in some form or other.

I will take your word for it—never watch the dungpile of current sitcoms.

Back in 1968, it was my habit to go downtown to the Loop, in Chicago and binge watch all the newly released movies on a Saturday. You could see 5 or 6 movies, within steps of each other, and still be home by 10 PM.

There was a movie with George Peppard and Raymond Burr called "PJ", where Peppard plays a detective named PJ Detwiler. There was a sequence where he is following a suspect and tails him into a gay leather bar, and vividly gets beaten bloody for being straight, and trespassing.

Oddly enough, when I saw the movie on TV, years later, the whole sequence had vanished... I suppose it didn't reflect well on the Sexual Revolution, even then.

Ok alphabet people, here’s the deal: we don’t want to see you, hear, from you, be around you, or watch you prance around in a movie or show. Is that clear?

Even Sophia Vergara can not make me watch that show. And she could make me do darn near anything.

Exactly. “Record low” to them means they are not getting away with pretending these people are 50% of the population. Same people who enormously skew the racial quotas in ads.

Easily made up for by the exploding number of LMNOP characters on every television show and cable series.

Why the barf alert?

This is good new and simply shows the business end of Hollywood is alive and well. If movies cast with lgbt actors made money, which they would if people wanted to watch them,then the numbers would increase and not decrease as this article claims is happening.

Are you disappointed I didn't post pics of fags in movies? They're pushing this sickness everywhere in our culture.
