With an announced premiere date of June 10th, LOGO will air a documentary - "Gay Lives of Straight Guys" - which will follow heterosexual men who work and/or play in what is often considered "gay" culture.
Following a hairstylist, a fashion designer, a straight personal trainer at a primarily gay gym, a straight man who plays football in a gay league, the show seems to demonstrate that hetero men can play with the gays and still come out alive.
Positive premise although I think it could send a wider message if it were on a different network since LOGO is watched primarily by gay men already. Not sure how many hetero folks will see the doc. But you never know :)
From the producers:
A new generation of men is turning the tables on the catch phrase "That's so Gay!" feeling free to explore professions, friendships and lifestyles once considered strictly off-limits to the hetero-male.
In careers such as hairstyling and fashion design to personal appearance, straight dudes are finding a new freedom to express their true talents in areas often reserved for gay men, making friends for the first time across the sexual divide and discovering a new emotional freedom.
"Gay Lives of Straight Guys" is documentary that explores these changing attitudes and more through the compelling and intriguing stories of men brave enough to break down barriers and become pioneers in the melting pot of cultures.
The trailer seems to indicate there's plenty of eye-candy throughout the film.
What's the name of the song on the commercial for the show?
