PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

...I think you're being an idiot about this. And you know I like you too so you must be being a major idiot for me to feel that way about you (/backhanded compliment)
Rob is not a mysogynist (sp), nor is he homophobic. There are two types of racism/homophobia/etc, the kind that comes from having a cruel heart and the kind that comes from simply being ignorant about the group of people you are talking about. Rob is obviously in the latter group which is completely forgivable.
People who are racist because of ignorance are not cruel by nature, but merely need to be exposed to the people they are racist against in order to combat that racist attitude. 99% of the time when someone like this is exposed to the people they are racist against they will see that there is nothing wrong with those people and they will realize their ignorance and change their ways.
Rob was clearly a culturally sheltered person when he was on S4 and was probbably never around gay people before. Since S4 Rob has had a lot more exposure to gay people and is obviously no longer prejudice against them. This has been obvious since All Star Survivor and is obvious once again now on TAR.
THAT is why you dont see those comments, because he doesn't make them, not becuase they choose not to air them. Do yoiu really think they would leave out homophobic comments that make great tv? Now who is being ignorant and close minded?
I speak on this from experience. I used to be homophobic about 10 years ago because I had never been around a gay person in my life. Then I moved to the city and was finally exposed to gay people and was for the first time able to see them for what they reall are, normal people just like me (well, maybe I'm not a good example of normal). Since then I have had numerous gay friends, boht men and women, including some that I would consider very close friends.
HD, you are coming off as very close minded and ignorant with your non stop unfounded Rob bashing and you are definitley losing a lot of points in my eyes.
