    I don’t make it a point to watch the show, but if it’s on and I happen to be flipping through the channels, I will watch. It’s cute, but it continues the stereotype that all gay man are hip, fashionable, can decorate and know what wine goes best with seafood. I don’t pluck my eyebrows or shop at Pier 1, or keep exotic cheeses in my fridge. It’s great that the Fab 5 are using the word ‘queer’ with no negative connotation, but it kind of bothers me that it uses ‘typical’ stereotypes (and yes, Carson is annoying).

    Having said that, it’s great that folks who don’t personally know gay people would embrace the show – even though it uses stereotypes.
