Members Eric83 Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 LOL exactly. Like they know every gay person on Earth. I know some are ready to jump on it being a stereotype but there are people out there like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 Stereotypes always have a grain of truth. Otherwise, they wouldn't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 Well, when you consider that 95% of the characters are stereotypes on the show, it's not exactly a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 I can only speak for myself when I state that my cynicism isn't about Felix being an effeminate gay male character (as my concern would remain the same if he were introduced as another Karamo [a past Real World cast member who was the first openly [though he clearly wasn't comfortable in his skin at the time] Black gay member who went out of his way to portray himself as butch as possible) - it's about him being a Black character, the likes of which Ron couldn't write for if one bought him a clue on how to.

Members Cheap21 Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 I have no issue with him being gay but if anything it's that he is a nurse. Even though more men are entering that field, it's still associated with feminity with many still viewing it as a women's job. The show finally gets a male nurse and the only one they have and he just happens to be gay and very feminine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
