In the HOH; Jeff says if he's around when Harry Potter is being played, it makes him want to nap. Jordan says the story about it is cool... how the lady wrote it on a train.. she was poor and sat on a train and wrote the story. Those in the HOH argue about whether Rowling was poor.
Kalia says she was totally poor and wrote the book to make money and to entertain her kids. Then Rachel starts to talk about Hagrid and Dumbledore. Kalia says that Rowling wrote the Dumbledore character as a gay character originally. Everyone in HOH is surprised by this.
Jeff says "Who's Dumbledorf.. who is that, the big guy?".. Rachel then says "why would she want a gay character?" while Jeff in the background says "That would be perverted!" Kalia explains that she made the character so that her kids and other kids would understand homosexuality.
Jeff says "how is he meant to be gay? he doesn't have any gay tendencies..." Kalia interrupts and says "maybe that's the point! so that people like you don't stereoptype around gay people".
Jeff says "WHAT DO YOU mean stereotypes around gay people? He's in a school with little kids, you can't make THAT GUY GAY!"
Kalia squeeled "WHYYYY? Gay men can't work with little kids!?"
Jeff says "it isn't right to have it in a little kids book, and have the head master locked away in this magical land, be gay. That isn't the right kind of writing to do."
Kalia doesn't see anything wrong with it. "I don't see why not!"
Jeff says "Oh I can see your PC view of it, but it's not the right thing to do..." she asks him "WHY is it PC?"
Jeff says to her "Listen, you know what I'm talking about and don't make it seem like your doing the right thing by saying it's not! You are going to let your kids read a story book where little kids go to fantasy camp without their parents and the guy is GAY?"
Kalia: "Just because he is gay, doesn't mean there is a thing wrong with him!"
Jeff: "GTFO! Don't start with that f'in *****!" While Kalia is trying to defend herself, Jeff is yelling louder "Don't tell me the right answer for f'n T.V.!..."
Kalia: "I'm not doing it for t.v! You want to know why I do it? My little sister is gay!"
Jeff: "I don't give a f**k if your sister's gay! Think about what it is!"
Kalia: "I truly don't understand..."
Jeff: "You don't understand what I'm talking about?? Then I don't understand either."
Kalia: "I don't understand why he can't be a headmaster.."
Jeff: "You're right, you're right! I don't want to talk about it then!"
Kalia put her head down in exasperation, and this convo ended.
There are 6 or so other HG's in the HOH.. none of them had a word to say. |
