I was part of a conversation recently where someone brought up the show heated rivalry, and how it evidenced big cultural shifts, some of which include:
1) gay actors playing gay characters, rather than straight actors playing gay character or gay actors playing straight characters
2) mostly straight women love the show
They were saying it's a symbol of some big shifts... what do you see? What do you think? I haven't watched it myself (and probably wont, not against it just very limited TV time and strong preferences for sci-fi and shows I've been following for a long time) so looking for the brain trust here to understand it and it's reflection of culture at a deeper level
