Lesbian line insulting

Oh boo hoo. So you got insulted by a comment but this is america and everyone can get offended or make offensive comments. Stop trying to throw a pity party just because you're lesbian and got offended. There are plenty of non-PC things in this movie and I was offended when they made the comments about bulimia, sending the message that its not a serious disorder requiring comfort and medical attention since I myself was bulimic but guess what, I GOT OVER IT. Why? IT'S A *beep* MOVIE

Even back in 1989 we should have been more enlightened.


I realize that I am over 7 years late, but OH SHUT THE EFF UP! I just watched this movie earlier and I just thought to myself "I know someone is going to bitch about John's lesbo comment either calling him a bigot or a homophobe when the comment was neither"...... Big fat surprise here it is.

In 89 there were a lot less PC crybaby douchebags - too bad I was 9 at the time and didn't get to fully appreciate living in a time when people didn't whine about everything. Now as an adult I have to put up with people being called bigots/homophobes if they are sick and tired of hearing gay people bitch about everything all the way down to why there isn't a lesbian Disney princess....


Ugh.



I really like your car Mrs. Larusso!

Everyone everywhere should be more enlightened than we are, but we're not. That's just life, but at least we got better.

A lot of movies from the 80s are insensitive by today's standards. I find it interesting the kind of things people said or did back then without thinking twice.

Star Wars: Episode VII - The New Holiday Special

You gotta remember this movie was in 1989, at that time being gay was still looked at as devious by a lot of and ppl portrayed gays as the "bad ppl" you don't wnna be.

I didn't like the transphobic scene in Miss Doubtfire, where the son catches Doubtfire peeing standing up and he tried to physically attack her. If she had a penis and was a pre-op trans woman that was HER OWN business, the little $hit boy shouldn't have have come in on her while she was peeing.

That to me sent a bad message that if a woman is trans and or in the process of transitioning from male to female, she's automatically a villain and should be thrown out of the house.

Create a society in which you would like to live, not knowing what you're going to come into it as.

It may have been insulting, but IRL this is how people talk. The media, specifically TV and the Internet, will have people believe that everyone has become so enlightened/PC that they don't say certain things anymore...but on the street, people aren't polite.

I guess if you wanna be totally realistic, He could have pressed charges against Molly for assault, you don't get to SLAP someone just b/c you're offended at something they SAY.

Assumptions about people are always a source of entertainment. So thinking that a woman who uses a sperm donor is a lesbian is a funny assumption, and the fact that it is no longer PC made it even funnier to me. Of course you'd think that a woman is a possible lesbian if she didn't have a man but had just made a kid.

The only good line in the movie and someone has to cry about it. This is why we can't have nice things
