On a lighter note, there's this: beautiful men, hot sex, romantic entanglements, pedestrian scripts. Why is it so easy for society to wink at a straight man's taste for sapphic action, yet find the notion of a woman following her boiz down the yellow brick road bizarre? Pourquoi, s'il vous plait? What's not to like? As 'QaF' fan Morgaine Swann writes on, ' 'Queer as Folk' may be about gay characters, but those characters are played by some of the most beautiful actors and actresses, both gay and straight, that you've ever seen.' 'QaF,' she concludes, is 'full-frontal 'Friends' with better-looking, more talented actors.' There you have it. I'll let a female member of have the last word.
