Why should NTL show a Gay channel if there is no demand? NTL are a business. They carry channels to make money. If there is no demand, they will not make money.
And, yes, "I'm not homophobic" (I actually do have gay friends). Prove to NTL there is a demand for these channels, and they might add them.
But, as orangebird asked a while back, what is different on a gay channel? Surely gay people should be better represented on mainstream channels rather than being shoved off to their own channel?
