Florida House passes “Don’t Say Gay” bill

They now have to change the Flintstones song to air the show in Florida, since children will automatically assume that Fred was having a “gay old time” with Barney, sans womenfolk. From now on: “we’ll have a he-man time.”

The passage of this bill drew immediate ire from Marcia Straight Harden, the descendants of the great reporter Macho Talese and former PGA star Studs Brewer, as well as the descendants of the pilots who flew the Enola Hetero.

I have to admit I was a bit surprised by this announcement. They actually broke in to announce it as a news bulletin, interrupting my viewing of The Rugged, Totally Manly Caballero. These sorts of things can be disconcerting in the USA. Perhaps my friend and I should move to Gutsy, Red-Blooded Paree.

    1. I still haven’t read it.

      I do know that this seems to be the new obsession of the far right. My youngest son’s significant other is a librarian, and she told me there is no longer any problem (in our area) with books that ridicule creationism or religion, nor is there any problems with books that include sex and violence, but parents don’t want their kids reading anything that suggests it’s OK to be gay!

  1. Not worried. I’ve brushed up on my connectives. So whenever I may visit Florida, I’ll be prepared to comply with any “don’t segue” laws.
