Same Sex Couple On Strictly

[Theblip]

Strictly Come Dancing are to feature their first ever same-sex pairing. Are you pleased about that, displeased, or don’t care?

[Zacs-Master]

The entertainment industry having more than it's fair share of LGBGTQ people.........surely not!

Three of the previous Judges are confirmed, Bruno is still in the US.

There'll be other changes too, not least a shorter run.

Very peculiar comment by Hans. Yes, there are 2 openly gay judges in Bruno and Craig, and there have been many openly gay dancers including Ian Waite, Robin Windsor and Johannes Radebe , so is it really that strange to have 2 people of the same sex dancing together?

[SparklyKid]

I never watch and certainly never will. A couple of blokes dancing should be confined to gay clubs.

[Togo]

Will they do the wokey cokey?

That's what its all about...after me..

Woh oh, the wokey cokey, woh ho, the wokey cokey, woh ho, the wokey cokey
Hands clap, knees bent, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Its time we didn't need gay clubs; or the term, openly gay. Lets be more realistic, representative and tolerant of our society as it is. Same sex couples can shop together, live together, marry either other, run businesses and public services; why on earth should they not be able to dance together on Strictly?

Have to agree. When I see two men, particularly in soaps, passionately embrace I physical gag and have to shut my eyes as fast as I can.

And this is why I'm quite pleased that this is happening. Too many people have disgusting, outdated opinions on homosexuality like these.

Good on them. Maybe they should have an all male couple too, to really get the homophobes angry.

It's like a time warp in here sometimes.

To 1930s Berlin?

[Mamyalynne]

I'm not sure Mozz, I just can't get my head round it at all - is there an element of fear do you think?

[johnny.5]

however perhaps this will only help to illustrate that in most if not all dancing meets there is usually more ladies single ladies than single men waiting for a dance . So they may dance with each other as is sometimes the case . plus they may think they are being a bit forward asking a strange man for a dance

Am I Right ?
I'm Not Wrong !

The puerile responses of some on this thread are quite breathtaking.

Fear of what exactly? Being gay isn't a stick to beat people with in thos day and age. It's perfectly normal and perfectly acceptable. Anybody thinking otherwise are living in a bygone age.

Mozz, some young males may think they've lost the possibility of appearing on Strictly because another woman has taken a place usually allotted to a male. My heart goes out to them.

Do we know that they have "lost a place"? Nicola Adams was anounced in a two girls/two boys post by the BBC, so it seems that she's part of the girls allocation. If you're talking about a male pro dancer, I'm sure that there are plenty of opportunities out there if they aretalented enough.

Just struggling for reasons Mozz, nothing more.

That is just weird! Not a natural reaction at all even if you find gays 'disgusting'.

Probably for the best Mamya. Who wants to understand people with that kind of mindset?
