Anyone here watch Queer As Folk? These individuals could be str8, gay, lesbian, trans, I am not discriminating anyone.
Just wanted to see.

Ditto that!
I find Queer Eye offensive. I think those five flamers are the biggest stereotype sellouts to hit the airwaves.
But that's just me.

I've never seen, nor heard, of it. Must be on some pay channel...
O/T: My sister was always 'gay' or a 'lesbian' and everyone I know used the terms interchangeably. Is that not correct? Are lesbians not gay, because I see you put them separate. Oh, and str8 reminds me too much of that stupid aolese sk8r stuff. Blech!

While you can use the terms interchangably, as gay means homosexual and lesbians are of course homosexual. Using gay by its self without a gender identifier is commonly thought of as male. Sort of like... All Cannondales are bikes, but not all bikes are Cannondales.
Yup, I think I've seen all the Queer as Folk episodes. It was an enjoyable soap opera type show.

Well yes I know, thats the part I dont know. I guess I find it interesting. And no i am not gay, so dont start making up stuff.
Why so defensive?
Naw im not being defensive, it just somehow becomes a "your gay" thing in most cases, but honestly I dont think it would happen here, in other places it would.

hahaha
no I don't think anyone would call "you're gay", if anything, they would start with me...um...it's kinda obvious...
As for the term gay, at least in Canada GLBT communities, there seems to be a trend for dykes to use the word lesbian as supposed to gay, since they want to differentiate themselves from gay male.
Queer As Folk is a drama show on the Showcase/Showtime network, it started from a UK show. The last season just finished about a month ago.
Unfortunately I don't like Queer Eye either, it seems to run on an assumption that all gay males are flakey males whose sole purpose in life is to rearrange different colour of velvet and/or satin.

I watch Folks are queer. It's about gay man, who moves in with a gay woman and they each have three strait kids.
Oh the antics they get up to. Alice, their transvestite fashionista housekeeper who never wears shoes is a riot.
Every week they cover a new politically sensitive topic. This week, the boys had to do book report about simone de beauvoire and virginia wolfe and they just didn't get it.
Thank good mom went to art college! The episode ended with Alice burning the roast, but that was okay, 'cause the whole family is vegetarian!
Simone de Bouvier... one of my favorite quotes comes from her.
"One is not born a woman, one becomes a woman"

Yeah, she was a femme branchee woman! (plugged in woman as the French would say). Too bad JP Sartre called her Beaver.
