Fast Eddie 625 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 02-14-03, 00:32 AM (EST) "Quota problems" Nice to see that the gay is a lesbian this time. But, um, doesn't quota require two blacks? I saw only one. American demographics decree there should be two, occasionally three, out of 16, to prove you're not a racist. Maybe they bought some allocation room from overquota'd Fear Factor. At least we have another Oriental. With all the Chinese, Koreans, Japanese and Vietnamese, etc. in the US, you'd think there would be more. But where are all the Latinos? I read they now outnumber blacks. Yet they rarely make it onto game shows. Maybe they need to complain more. Also, aren't we over quota on dufuses? Or are Americans really that moronic? (After seeing a few episodes of Leno's Jaywalking, maybe it's actually under quota.)   Top

MellowYellow 346 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 02-14-03, 03:12 AM (EST) 2. "RE: Quota problems" As a proud Latina, I will say we watch these people as amusement. See, we know what surviving in a hot desert filled with bugs with no food, outrunning, outwitting, and outlasting is all about. What do you think border crossing is like?   Top

wildchickenhunter 3192 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 02-14-03, 08:05 AM (EST) 4. "RE: Quota problems" I was kinda thinking the same thing. May be they are too smart or have to much self respect to get involved with media whoredom.   Top

bebekid 1621 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Peanut Festival Grand Marshall" 02-14-03, 11:21 AM (EST) 5. "Yo, Fast Eddie!" Just out of curiousity, which woman do you think is a lesbian? I'm not very good at spotting gay people, especially on TV shows.   Top

DEVILRAYS 398 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 02-14-03, 02:36 PM (EST) 6. "RE: Yo, Fast Eddie!" The last time I heard rumor of a lesbian was the Marquesas, and I don't know if that ever came to fruition...although it does seem like reality shows have more gay men than lesbians. AR has had seven in three series, by my count (the Guidos, Team Cha Cha Cha or whatever they were called, and one half each of three AR3 teams.) To my knowledge, there have been only three openly gay Survivors (Rich, Brandon, and John) and I am not aware of any lesbians.   Top

KeithFan 7422 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 02-15-03, 01:12 PM (EST) 17. "RE: Yo, Fast Eddie!" I think Alex will come out before the show is over.   Top

bebekid 1621 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Peanut Festival Grand Marshall" 02-14-03, 04:27 PM (EST) 10. "Deena" Deena's SeeBS bio says she's married and has kids. Like I said before, I'm not good at spotting gay people, but I don't think we have one on this season. Not that there's anything wrong with that.   Top

MellowYellow 346 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 02-15-03, 07:24 AM (EST) 11. "RE: Yo, Fast Eddie!" Ha! Ha! She fooled you! She's married with two kids. I know doesn't mean anything she's married! By the same token it doesn't mean she's gay just because she's comfortable with her masculine side. Wild guess if anyone is gay, not that it would matter, I say Matthew.   Top

Fast Eddie 625 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 02-15-03, 11:27 AM (EST) 14. "When you're right, you're right - I blew it." I should have checked the bio first. When I was having fun with this, my wife's comment occurred to me and I tossed it in at the last moment. I'm really poor at observing such things and usually trust her judgement. But no excuse. I should have checked first. Mea maxima culpa, and sincerest apologies.   Top

Mea maxima >culpa, and sincerest apologies. No need to apologize, Fast Eddie. This is Bashers fer cryin out loud! Now if you ever come face to face with Deena...   Top

Fast Eddie 625 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 02-15-03, 02:20 PM (EST) 18. "RE: When you're right, you're right - I blew it." If I ever come face to face with her, I hope she read my apology for being so lazy. She looks like she could wallop the snot out of me. My wife still can't believe she got this wrong.   Top

desert_rhino 10087 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 02-15-03, 08:01 PM (EST) 22. "RE: When you're right, you're right - I blew it." Well, for almost 15 years, my ex-wife was married with 2 kids. I'm sorry, I meant to say, "my lesbian sociopathic physician ex-wife." Don't let marital status convince you your gaydar's off. Don't mean #####, as far as I can tell. -- JV   Top

Spidey 6259 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 02-16-03, 10:43 AM (EST) 28. "RE: When you're right, you're right - I blew it." And my dad was married for 32 yeares and had 2 kids before he came out at the ripe old age of 56. And his partner was also married with 2 kids. Yes, JV, mariatal status and children don't mean a dang thing. Of course, I am not saying Deena IS gay, just that unless she tells, we won't know.   Top

SurvivinDawg 6816 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 02-15-03, 08:03 AM (EST) 12. "RE: Quota problems" As I pointed out in my summary, there IS a black man in this show: The Immunity Idol. P.S. "Oriental" refers to objects, "Asian" refers to people. So says my brother's gf, who is of Asian descent. Contradictions don't exist. If you are faced with a contradiction, check your premises. You will find that one of them is wrong. -- Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged   Top

Fast Eddie 625 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 02-15-03, 11:23 AM (EST) 13. "Oriental vs Asian" From dictionary.com: Oriental: Of or relating to the countries of the Orient or their peoples or cultures; eastern. also oriental \O`ri*en"tal\, n. 1. A native or inhabitant of the Orient or some Eastern part of the world; an Asiatic. However, the site also says: Usage Note: Asian is now strongly preferred in place of Oriental for persons native to Asia or descended from an Asian people. The usual objection to Oriental meaning “eastern”is that it identifies Asian countries and peoples in terms of their location relative to Europe. This is news to me. Oriental is what I have always seen used in reference to just the eastern and southeastern parts of Asia. "Asian" to me has always included people from India, various -istans, Iran, etc., which is not what I was thinking of - but would have been a better choice for my point. Oh well. Occidents will happen.   Top

magellanscross 52 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Hollywood Squares Square" 02-15-03, 11:50 AM (EST) 15. "RE: Quota problems" well i guess there is only one black woman in the season because: the other is an asian man (who gives other asians a bad name because he is all brawn and no brains, and that brawn is not even out to good use). and there is a deaf girl. and the usual old people (but this time not older than 60... should we also cry ageism?!?!?)i even take it that they didnt have any gay man this time because they would not be able to decide which team to put him- men or women?!? i guess 3 people from a minority is the new quota. and minority not only referring to those that belong to a different race but also to those that were born before WW2 broke out, those living alternative lifestyles, those with a physical handicap.   Top

EPM just find the sixteen biggest and best DAW's that he can find, fortunately, for the African American community, there isn't a black man on the show to deface your community.
