Okay maybe "Mr. Rogers" was "My Stars Gay" But I loved him ANYWAY!

[KoKo]

I thought he was "Way Cool." :shrug: But, that said, Captain Kangaroo was more Macho...but "Mr. Greenjeans" was definitely a guy I would invite to my house for dinner. The "Captain" was too much a "Capitalist" for me.

1. How "bleeding heart liberal" of you.

[KoKo]

7. Blood is all over me!

:D

[Kire]

what, no "quotation" marks

maybe next time

[anti_shrub]

2. You do know Mr Rogers was married, right?

Unless you meant "gay" as in "lame".....

[Kire]

4. married and a priest

I think I'm right about that.

[anti_shrub]

8. Presbyterian minister

n/t

[KoKo]

10. Married and a Presbyterian Minister...........two sons..

but, still he's been thought of as "less than macho."

[Kire]

11. I don't like going to a "macho" minister

it kind of distracts from the whole repentance aspect

[Maven]

6. i usually say, "that's so straight" n/m

[Bouncy Ball]

3. Mr. Rogers wasn't gay.

[KoKo]

14. It doesn't matter...but he was thought of by some as

"not real." He was...who he was.. It's the "stereotypes" I was pointing out....and just trying to be silly in the lounge... that's all.

[Southsideirish]

5. Whatever he was, I liked him!

[crimson333]

9. how can you not like mr. rodgers?

he was the first one to show me how things are made


but I did prefer Captain Kangaroo more

[intrepid_wanderer]

12. anyway??!!!

awhhh... and here I thought I was in an accepting... if not affirming environment.


<sniffle sniffle>

oh yeah... <stereotypical (feigned) voice> Thank the STARS for Dorothy!


sigh

[KoKo]

13. I LOVED Fred Rogers.........but............it doesn't matter...I loved him

that wasn't my point. :shrug:

[elperromagico]

15. Imagine how creepy he would have been if he'd been really butch.

Just imagine that.

[JohnKleeb]

16. Well at least the neighborhood would have been safe

[elperromagico]

17. I have my doubts...

[bettyellen]

20. someone's been working on his snarkiness. i predict you'll get a fake

ID and someones going to start a thread about dreaming about you, very soon.....

[imenja]

18. Didn't Mr Rogers have a wife?

I believe he did. Just because a man doesn't carry an Ak 47 doesn't mean he is gay.

[Deja Q]

19. Mr Rogers couldn't get a singing career... judging by his kid show,

it's no bloody wonder. He is SO off-key...

And I could care less if he could sue Disney for their wrongful use of 'Tinkerbell'; bad singing aside he was kinda cool.

[Floogeldy]

21. You mean you ordinarily don't love someone because they are gay?

And Mr. Rogers is the exception, or what?

:shrug:
