Controversies

Why is the subject of homosexuality not listed in the Controversies section? Is it because the subject was not incommon in those days, and felt it is not a controversy within the context of the series, per se? Or is it because it is being avoided talking about altogether, in a closed-minded way? I am not saying it should be put there, but an explanation is necessary, please.

I've not read a source that has mentioned this as a controversy. Dbrodbeck (talk) 00:56, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
Well, clearly, it is a controversy. It's omission is glaring, given that the topics of drinking, smoking, adultery and racism are there. The only way for it not to be a controversy, is if it was silently accepted. The subject is touched upon several times throughout the show, and considering all the men are married to women, I do think it's a subject that should be discussed.
