Gay Rights Group Doesn’t Like Comcast ‘Queer Eye’ Ad Spoof

  • 1 min read

Comcast has been running an ad campaign that pokes fun at various TV shows one of which is “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.” The spoof has not been well received by the Pennsylvania Lesbian and Gay Task Force claiming the ads stereotype gay men as being effeminate and caring only about fashion. The groups also faults “Queer Eye” for pepetuating a narrow view of gay men. Perhaps a show about gay men sitting around staring at each other and talking about football might be more exciting?

Researchers on self-regulated learning have found that effective learners do for themselves much of the checking a teacher might otherwise supply — setting goals, monitoring what’s working, and changing strategy when it isn’t — and that habit can make them better at adapting when they run into a problem they haven’t seen before.
