I read an interesting article recently about the cover of a recent GQ magazine which explained to me all the reasons it was wrong - and also pointed out why I, as a white, heterosexual male was unaware of the disservice it was doing.
Well surely someone as aware as I didn't fall into that category, right? WRONG as it turns out. I had no idea! Was the article being over sensitive or was I really that dense?
Apparently, despite the cast of glee being comprised of gay, minority, and disabled characters, the cover of GQ contained only three white heterosexuals. The male was fully clothed and the two females...less so.
I completely missed it.
Understanding that, I fully admit to missing other things as well. Things probably more important that the cover of a magazine.

Its all about perspective.
