Video I love: That’s Gay – Commercials

Once a week, I post a video I’ve seen recently that I’m loving. So here’s this week’s Video I love …

A  light look at a real absence of gay imagery on TV and some sad commercials that make being gay something gross.

I must admit, though, I do like watching the gay commercials on LOGO. It is nice to feel included in society, even if it is on a channel watched mostly by those in the know.

So tell me, what do you think? Do you wish there were more commercials featuring gay men and women? What types of content would make for positive LGBT images? Comment or send me an email. I’d love to hear from you.

Video I love: The first kiss (Noah and Luke)

Once a week, I post a video I’ve seen recently that I’m loving. So here’s this week’s Video I love …

I was looking through my YouTube favorites today and I realized I’m still loving this kiss from As the World Turns.

Awhile back when I heard a soap opera was developing a gay love story for a major character, I wanted to show some support. I caught up with the characters online at YouTube which was the first time I had ever watched ATWT. Then I started recording the show. I see this as a major step for US daytime broadcast television and I’ll continue supporting the efforts of ATWT as long as they keep the couple going as a loving relationship between two men. Kudos to CBS, the producers, writer, and actors (Van Hansis and Jake Silbermann).

So here’s the first kiss between Luke and Noah (or as I so often mess up their names … Loah and Nuke).

So tell me what you think. Do you watch the show? Applaud CBS?
Comment below or send me an email. I’d love to hear from you.
