The latest experiment from the producers of What Would You Do?, openly displays affection between two men at a local bar. In hopes of getting the audience responses, the show adds in an actor who holds back none of his distaste and digust towards this publically intimate situation. As the show continued, people began getting upset and frustrated with the rude comments being thrown out by the actor. Almost everyone stood up in outrage pleading for the inconsiderate man to excuse himself from the bar or to shut his mouth. The accepting crowd at the bar were far from being displeased with the gay couple, it was only the obnoxious observer.
In my opinion, I think the display and reactions of the actor were extremely shocking to crowd at the bar. Personally, I can see where the observer was coming from considering I can not stand PDA, homosexual or not, but I think he could've handled the situation in a more respective manner. If I was the disgusted and uncomfortable man, I would simply voice my opinions in a more discrete manner or just exit the bar. Never would I take it to the point of degrading the couple on their sexuality and embarrasing not only them, but myself like that. Affection should be done in private between the couple, not a portrayed as a spectacle in front of an open bar. For one thing I am positive that I would not sit well with those harsh comments, but I'm not sure if I'd step in since I am not a supporter of public display of affection. I would simply just remove myself from the situation and hope the couple would do the same.
