Chekhov Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, altus said: How dreadful that the BBC show programmes representing the lives of people who are expected to pay the license fee. They'll be showing women playing football next. You are deliberately missing the point and you know you are. If gay people constitute about 3% of the UK population, I would have no problem with them constituting 3% of the characters in TV programmes. And why, when reporting on an example of a lockdown postponed wedding, are the couple gay when 97% of couples getting married are straight ? They are pushing a woke agenda and you know full well they are. Edited July 18, 2022 by Chekhov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the Beeb never let on about its autobiographic character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point that is being made is that the sexuality of people is being exaggerated by behaviour in the media instead of it not being the main issue in a persons life.

I don't see how you can come to that conclusion when Justin has repeatedly gone on about the percentages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
