Disappointed in the 2nd vignette...


Christ almighty, for the amount of time these immature women spend bitching about being judged and excluded, that's their FIRST reaction when one of their number expresses herself and her attraction/love.

Just shows there isn't much of a gap in behavior between some gays and some social conservatives. 'Step outside the box, and we'll turn on you, too.'

We're all so disappointingly human at times.

That was the point of the story to show that anyone can be bigoted. Even members of a minority.

I guess. And it's just a movie. But it's annoying. We want tolerance and equality, but are quick as anyone else to deny it to others. That's not the path to civil rights. Dr. King didn't mock HIS brethren or act as tho only the blacks exactly like him deserved respect. Just my two cents. It's frustrating, because it's so close to reality. Nobody takes spoiled, whiny children seriously.

You are right. Homosexuals can be bigotted like any other human. The fights between butch and fem, gay and lesbian are old and well documented. There are old school feminists who think trans women don't belong in feminism and should have their own movement. Greer Garson thinks they arent real women.
