That's Gay: Or Is It!!???

Almost half of young people (49%) think the term "that's gay" is acceptable to use.

Newsbeat asked YouGov to survey 3,000 18 to 29-year-olds about where they draw the line with offence when it comes to sexuality, race and sexism.

Sexuality is the third part of a Newsbeat investigation into what words or phrases people find offensive...


Of the 12 words about sexuality which we put to the audience, "faggot" was the one that people found most offensive - 75%.

More than half of people in the survey said they would ask their friends to stop using the word if they heard it.

Just over half surveyed thought the term "lezza" was also offensive.

Many agreed the context in which a word is used is as relevant as the person who is using it...

Around (15%) didn't know if "queen" was an inappropriate term while almost 10% believed using the word homosexual was not acceptable in any circumstance...


The video features a gripping discussion with some young faggots and lezzas, and the thoughtful insights of Jaymi from Union J!

That's Gay: It's Gone

Fagburn is sorry to hear one of his most favourite tellybox programmes has come to an end - Bryan Safi's That's Gay.
Nothing personal, apparently.
Current has cancelled its host show, Infomania.
Let's hope Bryan finds a new home real soon.
If not - then let it be a history lesson in how to do "gay TV".

Exodus International: Leave Homo

Here's the homepage for Exodus International - who are behind the controversial "gay cure" app.
Fagburn does not give a flying fuck either way, by the way - not being apolitical and stupid.

• Hilarious interview with the Christian Post.
Can the iphone cure gayness? Brian Safi, That's Gay! Also hilarious.
Update: Apple pulled it on Wednesday...

That's Gay: Fagburn Salutes The Magic Of Bryan Safi

"Gays hate it when people judge us, but there's nothing we love more than judging other people. We may not be on the Supreme Court but there's one place where we rule supreme - reality TV..."

Over on Current TV, Bryan Safi is currently into his third or something series of That's Gay - his ludicrously good comic critiques of (the representation of) The Gays on US TV.
As I'm not 100% sure what Current TV is or how you can watch it, you can catch up on Bryan's complete works here.
He funny. Enjoy!
