Ellen Introduces ‘Oh Straight People!’

i can’t remember now what i was researching, but somewhere in the last couple of years i ran across an article somewhere looking at the cost of ellen’s coming out, specifically in the context of how deliberately curated the reclamation of her image on the first several years of her talk show was.  how non-threatening.  how neutered.  how careful she (was/had to be) not to say anything that was too… well… gay for mid-afternoon middle america.  i think the article touched on how she still made a statement with her presence and presentation, including dancing in a way that was very deliberately designed not to be packaged for the male gaze, and of course following her relationship with and wedding to portia etc that’s gone by the wayside quite a bit.  but it’s still just really fucking cool to look at a woman who thought she might never work again after the backlash from ‘the puppy episode’ and see her now just flat-out going ‘straight people are ridiculous, guys, amirite’ without apology.
