And why would I say something (too) bad about Ellen? Hell, I watch freakin' Doctor Who...
I'm not gonna go into the whole Ellen/lesbian issue, because I don't know what to say. But, a famous person standing up for what she thinks and what she is is bound to cause reactions. Especially amongst those who would like to do the same but isn't brave enough. Or something.

The whole lesbian ellen issue is weird weird weird I tell you. Basically their problem with her is that she's 'obviously ashamed of her sexuality' and 'doing the entire gay community a grave disservice by existing'. Which. I mean. They're insane. And they keep debating it over and over like they actually honestly believe she owes them something just for being a famous person who happens to be gay. I don't understand it, and it makes me sad that people are so stupid. Whatever, say they think her show is silly and her jokes are unfunny and she has an awkward interview style. Don't watch. I don't care. But her show isn't about making *any* kinds of statements, which they just don't get. She doesn't talk about being gay, she doesn't talk about politics either. Everything the magazines ever wanna talk about is her being gay, and she answers. I don't recall her ever coming out and saying what her political opinions are, anywhere. Bah. Stupid stupid people.
ehem.
sorry.

Perhaps she's not talking about how gay she is every day on her own talkshow, but I think Ellen is doing a great job of being a rolemodel by showing those straight people these gays hate so much how 'normal' a gay person can be. What's wrong about that?
Anyway, the black community in the US also bashes black people who don't act 'black' enough. Those americans have issues, man ;s

And as much as we'd like Hollywood to be a moral conscience, they're not. They cater to all our sleezy sides and dark wishes, because *we* pay them to. Ellen's just an entertainer, and her audience is made up mostly of straight women, of course she should cater to their interests. Lucy Lawless has an audience of mainly lesbians and we all know that she's straight, but she doesn't go around talking about het sex (sure, there's a difference, lesbians are a minority with bad legal rights, and whatever, but still) and I'd probably stop listening to her if she did. (how come gays and lesbians are allowed to be grossed out by het sex, but if a straight person is grossed out by gay/lesbian sex they're homophobes?) Everyone *knows* that Ellen is gay, and she never ever denies it, she just doesn't bring it up very often *on her talkshow*... but she's referred to 'my girlfriend', and 'the coming out episode', and most of the time she says 'our' and 'we'... a casual watcher might miss it, but if you're a regular there're mentions, and all in relation to normal, day-to-day life. Pretty frequently.

Silly people.
That's ok. You're not as silly. :-)
SPeaking of lesbian stuff, in a completely unrelated way... ehm... Resident Evil. The first one had a scantily clad kick ass hot chick, and the second one has two. You'd like. Maybe not the films themselves (because I do ;-P), but the visuals, at least.
