Just watched the PBS Buster the Bunny episode that caused the Regressive Right to throw a hissy, "It's Sugartime!"
Yes, there were two lesbian couples in the show, and yes, one of the daughters of one of the couples professed her love for her Mom and Step Mom, and yes, one of the lesbians even put her arm around her partner (for a photo), but they spent as much time on the family pets and livestock as on the moms--more, even. The focus of the show, as far as I could tell, was learning about Vermont in springtime, not homo parenting--in other words, one saw a lot about mud season, cows, maple syrup, and cheese, not much else.
I think I know the problem--those dykes were just too damn normal. And their kids, you couldn't tell them from the kids with two "regular" parents.
Must be confusing as hell for the homo-haters: "Why, they don't look depraved! And their kids look happy!!"
In other words: How are the homo-haters going to teach their kids that queers are abnormal and sick, when the lesbians on Buster look anything but?
Sigh.
