And let's rewind this back 50 years ago to 1964, and hopefully you realize how prejudice and stupid you sound.
But I wasn't making a judgment one way or the other with my post. I was just expressing my opinion of what I believe is the reason why TV networks seem to have homosexual characters in so many TV shows compared to how they are represented in the general populous.
If you'd like to explain to me why my statements were "prejudice and stupid", I'd be more than happy to know why. If you'd like to contradict my statements, I'd like to see where I was wrong.

If gay people don't choose to be gay, it isn't any different. The circumstances are, but not the state of being.

"So many?"
There was one on the Sopranos that I can remember, one on the Wire, one in GoT...
That doesn't seem like many.
In my experience I'd say that if anything they're underrepresented by HBO. I knew gays in High School, in College and in every unit I've ever been in with in the Military. Open homosexuals may be uncommon in town-with-no-stoplight Georgia/Colorado but not in the rest of the world.
People need to GTF over it. Homosexuality has always been around and can be found (whether open or closeted) in just about any group or community. HBO showing part of the human condition isn't that big of a deal. If it bothers you than unsubscribe.
