Should we allow straight men to participate in the Miss America Beauty pageant? What about showing the Duke's of Hazard on the BET channel?
In the name of diversity there should not be homosexual. Interesting. Everyone becoming gay? Highly unlikely. I would like to participate in the Ms. American Contest. Dukes of Hazard is not what folks that watch BET want to watch. Simple business decision.

With a taint of racism included in that business decision. Just read an article today on yahoo in which Samsung made some commercial that depicted men as lazy inferior beings who sit on the couch and do nothing. This woman plugs some sort of electronic device into his back and he's suddenly cleaning the house, feeding the baby, washing the floors, while she sits and does nothing. So men complain and say it's sexist. And some female reporter for yahoo claims that women can not be sexist towards men and only men can be sexist towards women and blacks can't be racist towards whites and only whites can be racist towards blacks. So what is a white Christian conservative heterosexual male supposed to do but think the whole bloody world is anti-him? How is current discrimination against this person OK? because his ancestors were discriminated against other groups so it makes it OK to discriminate against him today? We're not creating equality in this society. We're just flipping the script and turning the tables around on people and that's just going to lead to cyclical effect of never ending discrimination.

I do not want watch Boyz N the Hood. The don't show it on TNT. I guess broadcasters base what they program on being racial? They target specific groups of people. Business decision. As far as the white male being lazy, etc and someone being offended by it all I can offer is political correctness has gotten completely out of hand. Personally, I'm offended at others getting offended at the drop of a hat.
