NO, sorry, I don't. There are gay tv and radio presenters, gay actors, gay characters on tv prgrammes etc. What's the difference?

I think what he is saying is quite simple.


for example you have Men and Motors that is for a Hetrosexual ppl or do you not class that as broadcasting to a specific audience?

Er, I think he means people who are gay and want to watch programmes which relate specifically to gay interests. There are lots of specialist media; look on ntl and you'll find Christian channels etc. They cater for specific audiences who are united by their beliefs, experience and/or interests.

There are none apart from the interest in the same sex, which is why my gay friends find the whole issue of 'gay tv and radio' so vulgar.

People fight to be accepted as normal but then want to be treated differently at the same time.

How about gay porn, the availability on ntl of which is, I believe, the subject of this thread?

There are a range of lifestyle issues which impact on gay men and women, hence the availability of magazines such as Attitude which, by and large, appeal to gay men.

OK, the travel section of the Daily Mail, Daily Mirror or whatever might focus on Club Med or some such other family orientated destination; Attitude might focus on, say, Cape Town, one of the world's best gay friendly destinations.
