Brooklyn "REAL WORLD" house of horrors..
Real World Brooklyn :: The Gayest Yet?
Think there is enough all seeing eyes on the front door?
The cast seems to all come from broken homes, and have been traumatized in some way. Traumatized by sexual abuse, physical abuse, the army, and the mormon church. Guess this makes it easy for the producers to control the outcomes of the show.
As the Celtic Rebel has pointed out in his ground-breaking series, MTV has been pushing this homosexual (population control) agenda for quite some time now. I don't have a problem with part of the cast being gay, but I do have a serious problem with pushing transgender as being "normal". For many young teens, this will be their first "real world" experience with a transgender person. It's really amazing, how much MTV has changed in its 27 year life (in a bad way).
