Topic	Here's Your Reminder That 'Friends' Was Really, Really Homophobic
CyricZ 04/14/21 6:11:50 PM #62:	SPE posted... Wasnt friends a 90s show? Of course. No one is really here to retroactively shame people for having watched it back then. It's more about its "holding up". The article notes that it's still really popular. And it's not to say "you can't watch it". The article literally says as its final paragraph: None of that should stop anyone from binging Friends, but if your LGBTQ+ friends dont join you, there might be a reason for that. Like most topics on these kinds of retrospectives of older media, it seems there's such a knee-jerk response to defend the show or believe people are being shamed or cancelled, when none of that is happening. --- CyricZ He/him <cite>CyricZ posted [p:952835866] in Here's You...
