ABC's Bachelor slips and Says 'Gays shouldn't be on the show" "too perverted."

[Danno 1,228]

Before the Duck dynasty flare up has even died out, another Tv personality opens his mouth about his opinion on casting ...as though he has free speech and wham! The long knives will come out.

Taking cover behind his friendship with Gays... and his imperfect english can he survive in the era of 2014?

I think Glaad will show mercy on him, if... if he kissed the ring enough and after minor punishment

Predictions anyone?

ABC's 'Bachelor' Juan Pablo Galavis Says Gays Shouldn't Be on the Show UPDATED: "They're more pervert in a sense. To me, the show would be too strong, too hard to watch on TV," said the reality star. ABC, Warner Horizon Television and producers deem the remarks "careless, thoughtless and insensitive."

ABC's latest Bachelor says he doesn't think that there should be a gay or bisexual person on the broadcast reality television show and described gays as "more pervert in a sense" in a new interview.

Juan Pablo Galavis, the 32-year-old star of The Bachelor who also appeared on the most recent season of The Bachelorette, made the remarks in an interview with The TV Page's Sean Daly, who postedaudio of the comments.

The writer asked whether ABC should have a gay or bisexual bachelor on the show. "No," Pablo Galavis responded. "Just 'cause I respect them but, honestly, I don't think it's a good example for kids to watch that on TV. It's hard, it's hard, it's a very thin line."

He continued: "Obviously, people have their husband and wife and have kids, and that's how we are brought up. Now there's fathers having kids and all that, and it's hard for me to understand that, too, in the sense of a household having people's -- two parents sleeping in the same bed and the kid going into bed. It's confusing in a sense, but I respect them because they want to have kids, they want to be parents. It's a scale; where do you put it on the scale, where's the thin line to cross or not? You have to respect everybody's desires, opinions and way of living. But it would be too hard for TV."

"There's this thing about gay people -- it seems to me, I don't know if I'm mistaken or not -- I have a lot of friends like that, but they're more pervert in a sense. To me, the show would be too strong, too hard to watch on TV," Pablo Galavis said.

Pablo Galavis' comments follow a December controversy that erupted after Duck Dynastystar Phil Robertson made remarks about gay people to GQ magazine and was temporarily suspended from the show. Those remarks ignited a firestorm, drawing pundits, celebrities and politicians to weigh in on the issue of the suspension.

ABC, Warner Horizon Television and the Bachelor producers issued a joint statement: "Juan Pablo’s comments were careless, thoughtless and insensitive, and in no way reflect the views of the network, the show’s producers or studio."

Pablo Galavis has released a statement on his Facebook page saying the interview, in whichaudio was posted by The TV Page, takes his remarks out of context:

"I want to apologize to all the people I may have offended because of my comments on having a Gay or Bisexual Bachelor. The comment was taken out of context. If you listen to the entire interview, there's nothing but respect for Gay people and their families. I have many gay friends and one of my closest friends who's like a brother has been a constant in my life especially during the past 5 months. The word pervert was not what I meant to say and I am very sorry about it. Everyone knows English is my second language and my vocabulary is not as broad as it is in Spanish and, because of this, sometimes I use the wrong words to express myself. What I meant to say was that gay people are more affectionate and intense and for a segment of the TV audience this would be too racy to accept. The show is very racy as it is and I don't let my 5 year old daughter watch it. Once again, I'm sorry for how my words were taken. I would never disrespect anyone."

Wait, isn't this the same show that failed to have enough Blacks on?

Does my memory serve me correct?

I don't know Danno, ask a black person in real life.

[Danno 1,228]

I don't know Danno, ask a black person in real life.

I thought I did.... but you're not answering.

[We Keep Receipts 9,238]

I thought I did.... but you're not answering.

In real life. Not here. Like make contact with a black person and have a conversation with them, face to face. Or, is this asking too much for the Great Emancipator?

The Emancipator, must decline your request as there is much work to be done, and random interactions are of little value.

But I thought you might be interested in this nugget.

(Does Danno have a memory or what?)

So, your work is talking about how much black people suck on a website with less than 5 black people in it's forum? How's that working out for you?

Easy marv, it's not about you or directed at you.

To be honest, the first change we need... starts with White-folk.

The're the ones who think they need to "fix" the Black community.

I gotta get to them, make em see the damage they are doing.

The more I talk to White folks the more I realize... They have "no idea" whats going on.. and why?

Because to mention the truth, the facts, is to paint a bullseye on ones back.

Do you think if half the White women had Herpies, they wouldn't stop and ask "what is going on"?

When it happens to Black folks no one (white) cares cuzz they don't know. They just shovel more free condemns into those schools, celebrate another Planned Parenthood center opening and scoot on back to their own hood.

It's surprising that you are so blasé about it.

Bottom line, the Sexual revolution has sold us all a few minutes of pleasure in exchange for millions of people walking around with communicable viruses in millions of other cases, death.

Don't be so sensitive, it is not about Blacks..... Blacks just happen to be "ground zero."

Actually, change comes from within. Start by not being so much of a bigot, then go from there.

[Darnell 8,478]

anyone who allows their kids to watch the bachelor on tv needs to have a home visit from CPS.

[lostinblue 1,989]

Will the gay community treat this the same way as ..... oh yes that hillbilly (a derogatory term for southern folk) but acceptable to be use by liberals on this forum.

[Danno 1,228]

I'm trying..... but you give me so little to go on.

If I may...... you seem a little like the King heirs, they think, if they can keep the truth suppressed it will all go away.
