  • COL667v: LTA… BROS (film) – Oan R.: Hey. Just watched this review. I would say that I agree with everything that was said, however there is one point that is kind of glossed over. While yes, I agree with Gary that the main character is a pit of an arse at times, I don’t believe he does it to be mean, he’s just very passionate and opinionated. While he does have a very abrasive personality, there was one person who was attracted to him and accepted him for who he was, or at least seemed like he did up until the holiday dinner with the family. Yes I found the scene cringey, but maybe not for the reasons Gary did, as I feel the point of the scene was the boyfriend was not entirely at ease with this person who he supposedly was attracted to when introducing him to family and friends, and told him to tone himself down. This in effect resulted in the dinner scene going the way it did. I would say this is an important point made, as acceptance of who people are is a major theme in LGBTQ+ culture, and if you can’t really get that from people who are attracted to you, who will you get it from?

COL509: Are We Selling Out?

In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, the guys engage in a conversation on a tough question: Are we as a community “selling out”? With Pride Month coming soon as well as the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall riots, the cubs ask some hard hitting questions. Have we become complacent with the recent wins in the LGBT movement and that we have started to become mainstream? Who is educating our youth of the struggles and has this lack of education affecting their engagement?

Show Topic

For decades, the LGBTQIA community has been working to gain equality. In light of the political climate here in the United States, are we selling out? Have we moved away from our roots of activism, advocacy, fight?
