As if the dating world wasn't already a beast for single, heterosexual broads, Lifetime has decided to rub it in with reality dating show Gay, Straight or Taken? debuting on January 8th. Created by the minds behind Deal or No Deal, Gay, Straight or Taken? sends one woman on three dates. If she can choose the single, straight man from the bunch, than she wins a prize for the two of them. If she chooses the gay guy or the taken guy, the man she picks gets the loot.According to the show's producers, Gay, Straight or Taken? will turn "stereotypes on its head." Lifetime nor reality television are exactly stereotype busters so let's just go ahead and handicap the show. Ladies, the most desirable, likable guy is the gay one. The one who comes on the strongest is the married one, and the one who you would never in a million years dream of dating because he's too nice is the single one.

I'm gay and don't like promoting the stereotype that all gay men are hypermasculine muscle bound studs which is what I think this show is going to promote. Men are men and come in all sizes, shapes and levels of "macho" irregardless of their sexual preference. This show already has a thumbs down from me and my boyfriend.
