Homophobic or not?


Right then, if you follow the link i have placed in the title and read the article please come back and help me out.

Basically my question is, the t-shirt that is mentioned in the article homophobic or not? Now as you know i have a boyfriend, yet he and I both are fans of the show and of the Gene Genii.



Now i except that people who have not seen the show and therefore do not know the character may find it homophobic, but when taken in the context of the show, which is about a character from the 70's and 80's, i feel it isn't homophobic, or at least that is not the intent.

Therefore in my personal opinion, people need to calm down a little bit about silly things like this, there are much worse forms of bigotry and homophobia out there, please, focus your energies on fighting those.

Thoughts please?
