Mitch McConnell"Hillary Clinton 2016 Like "A Rerun Of The Golden Girls"

[DINGO Joe]

The swipe at The Golden Girls was potentially offensive to gay men as well. Two birds with one stone!

I've never understood the appeal of Golden Girls to gay men.

Perhaps we respect women instead of viewing them as sexual objects.  The Golden Girls are actually good-looking themselves, but too many straight men view women as only useful when they're young and dumb.

No, I'm pretty sure that isn't it

I didn't say that it was the only reason; it's part of it, though.  If you're not gay, I don't see how you can know.

You got me on the not being gay thing.

Ab Fab is another sitcom that is popular with gay men (I think it's quite funny whereas Golden Girls--meh) and I think it would be a stretch to call Patsy and Edina smart, independent yes, but definitely not smart.
