No

IMO it is a bit. (although I'm a hypocrite and will still watch it). Like they literally don't allow you to go on the show if you're gay. Sounds pretty homophobic to me! I get that the format doesn't really allow for same sex couples, but they could just tweak the format if they wanted to.

Oh i thought so but some said she was a lesbian put in for Sophie.

Li are planning a LGBT version apparently

Jack_ 01-06-2018 03:59 PM

It's more heteronormative than homophobic

T* 01-06-2018 04:00 PM

I would've said the same thing as Jack if it wasn't for that twat at the edinburgh festival who said we had enough shows

Mokka 01-06-2018 04:12 PM

I'm pretty sure Australia has a gay on it rt now

Crimson Dynamo 01-06-2018 04:25 PM

Its commercial and playing to 4% of the population does not get advertisers in.

Jason. 01-06-2018 04:30 PM

No.

The ones that gob off about it being homophobic all the time just have a chip on their shoulder and look for any reason to find fault with the show!

Alf 01-06-2018 04:33 PM

You could ask, "where are a lot of people?" It's their show and they should be able to put on who they want. If you don't like it, then don't watch, nobody is forcing you to.

Daniel. 01-06-2018 04:36 PM

No :umm2:

They would still have the same advertising revenue if they had a few gays on it as well so don't talk ****e!

Oh sorry! Didn't realise I was speaking to an expert in commercial television and advertising.

For what logical reason would having some non-heterosexual people on the show lead to less viewership? Please enlighten me.

Ashley. 01-06-2018 05:27 PM

No. The whole point of the show is matching men with women, that's the premise. Matching men with men or women with women would require a different show with a different format. Still a terrible show though, mind.
