So?

Madonna swapped spit with, respectively, the vacuous virgin slut and the vacuous slutty slut.

I'm supposed to be impressed by this?

Whoopty-dafuck-doo.

Oh, wow, chicks who have consistently marketed themselves as eye candy for straight men do something which makes straight men happy.

Yeah, that's revolutionary alright.

How about next year we have Rosie host the thing and smooch her partner on stage for real?

No?

Well, there goes my career as a publicist...

It was done to shock, not to show how kool lesbokissing is.

Right, which is why I'm wondering why people are so thrilled about it. I just don't see why it's any big deal. It's not exactly some big step in gay rights, it's just a couple of chicks kissing to impress an audience. *twirls finger in the air*

An authentic, real kiss between people who have real affection for each other, now that would be newsworthy. But just doing it for headlines? Not impressed.

It isn't any big deal, and it wasn't done to advance anything other than Madonna's album sales. MTV should re-edit the awards show to put the number in amongst the FittyCent assnuggets that the rest of the show was filled with so they can get people to watch it again.

Why would two people kissing be newsworthy? Maybe it's my Southun Baptist upbringing, but kissing in public so people can see the kissing is unnecessary- het or gay.

Your newsworthy is someone else's shocking, don't you think?

Kissing in public should simply happen when the people doing the kissing want it to, whether there are cameras around or not, so long as it's not a massive porno snog.

At any rate, my complaint is with people who think that what those girls did is any big advance in our culture. The kiss at the Tonys, however, was cool because it was real, inspired by real emotion between the people involved.

I'm agreeing witcha!

Haha, anyone who thinks a kiss between Hagdonna and Brit advances anything is in need of a clue check.
