- Title
Questions for Queer Eye.
- Abstract
This article discusses the television show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy." This discussion of "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" will seem quite dismal compared to the recent enthusiasm over the gayifictation of popular television programming. Viewers of David Letterman and Barbara Walters, readers of "Entertainment Weekly" magazine, and audiences of any television show business report have been told repeatedly that 2003 was a very good year to be gay. In the middle of July, audiences were swept over by a wave of gay--or gay-ish--TV shows. The improbably premise of the show is ingenious. A grooming- and refinement-challenged straight man is nominated (By a loved one or by himself) and selected through an application and screening process (the details of which are available on the official "Queer Eye" website) for treatment by a troop of five gay men, each a trained specialist in a specific area of personal style or cultural presentation.
