i really thought this country had come of age over the whole gay thing with making it legal to marry.

this tv show is including gay couples but removing scenes of them kissing?

why?

to protect its audience from reality?

i realise this shows audience is prolly teenage kids, but really, do they think kids today dont know the facts of life re gay couples?

i doubt there are many schools where at 'pick up time' or 'drop off time' there arnt same sex couples dropping timmy or tammy off and can be seen kissing each other.

not something i ever saw when i was at schhol but today?

Protecting the sensibilities of the average Liberal voter.
You're only allowed to kiss and fondle money.

I have spent many years at school gates waiting for children and grandchildren and I have never seen any couples (gay or straight) kissing each other.

They might kiss their children....if the children allow it (most are too "embrrassed" to be kissed by their parents once they are at school)

but I have never seen the parents kissing each other.
