why are " queer family relationships" such an important element in daytime talk TV?
Why for example, do straight people tune in to talk shows about queer families?
What role does the mythical nuclear family play in daytime TV?

1. After the AIDS scare of the early eighties homosexuality came out of the closet and became mainstream conversation.
2. Homophobia has long been a problem with straight people and religious zealots bent on seing homosexuality ended.
3. The Nuclear family is not mythical just out dated. Now a day daytime television is set up to appeal to the working mother as well as the stay at home mom, no one else.
4. This is the Consumer Electronics section and not the Entertainment and Music section.

I think it's part of dummy down of America and trying to destroy our moral values. It's just part of the plan to make us accept them and get us away from believing in God.
