Tbh, as much as I love the show what's most likely to happen is a slowly depleting pool of talent and loss of legitimacy until it steers into ANTM/Project Runway territory. I think it definitely still has a few strong seasons left in it but the incresingly ridiculous editing and move towards more 14 year old straight girl/tumblr user fanbase is making me wary.

Please don't go blaming the decline of the show on straight fans. I find it incredibly offensive and it only serves to further divide a community where people should be coming together. All shows eventually decline when they've been on for a long time; it happens to most of them, and very few shows go out on the same high note that they started with. Blaming it on straight fans just pisses me off. I happen to love drag - that's why I watch. I don't sit around and say, "Gee, this show is fine, but I wish it was less edgy."

Oh well, it doesn't really bother me if it annoys you tbh. Sanitisation/eradication of gay culture in favour of a more straight-friendly slant is a problem whether it hurts your feelings or not.

Too bad you feel that way. I'm on your side, whether you think the straights are "sanitizing" the LGBT community or not.

The problem is that your first reaction to my post (which was a comment on how the show is now being marketed rather than a dig at any particular group of fans) was to clutch your pearls and go on an ill-advised rant about how offended and disgusted you were. The fact that you, as a straight person, are using a discussion about an oppressed group to play a victim angle speaks volumes to me.

Maybe if you spent a little bit more time listening to the perspectives of actual LGBT people instead of patting yourself on the back for being an "ally" you wouldn't have received this kind of reaction.

I get what you're saying, but the fact that you're painting pretty much all straights and allies with the same broad brush is also a problem. We can agree to disagree at this point.

I didn't actually do that; I said that the show was clearly targeting a very young, straight audience and in doing so was diluting the show's content to make it more palatable.

Ok.

Ah, half-assed replies and downvotes, is that another thing you learn when you get older?

[–][deleted] 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Nah. But you learn to not let them bother you much.

Whoops. Too bad it doesn't matter what you think about LGBT rithts. How arrogant of you lol.

Uppity gays.

Keep twisting my words around. If you add sugar, we can all have cotton candy.

Oh shut up. You might that comment "extremely offensive" (grow a backbone tbh) but there are many people in this thread who don't have the same basic human rights as you and you're acting attacked because someone made a comment about straight people on tumblr? Get over yourself. And don't tell gay people how to manage their own community. Take your smug, imperious attitude elsewhere because if you're going to act that way I don't care about how much you "love drag".

[–][deleted] 1ポイント2ポイント  (4子コメント)

Suit yourself. You don't get that you have MORE people on your side in this day and age. But if you want more divisions, more groups against each other just so you can feel like a badass rebel? Okay then. Have less people standing up for your rights - that's really smart.

So you're saying you won't stand up for LGBT rights based on your interactions with people on a drag related subreddit? Beforehand I just thought you were misguided. Your most recent reply tells me you are just a homophobic asshole. Fuck off tbh. Your kind isn't welcome here. Maybe this interaction will give you a slight taste of what its like to be LGBT anywhere in society.

Way to twist my words around. I'm an ally, I always will be. Your little tantrum won't change that. MY point is that I don't get why - if you have people on your side - you want to push them away. You have this real "angry young man" attitude, which I don't get. So no, I'm on your side - always will be. But this "us vs. them" mindset you have sucks when I'm trying to back you up. Maybe one day you'll get it when you're older.

Keep showing those uppity gays what a good ally you are. Btw you don't know whether I'm young or a man.
