According to a corporate news release, AT&T is “celebrating Valentine’s Day” with a second season of You Me Her – the network’s original series about polyamory.
You might wonder why a telecommunications company, together with Entertainment One, is hosting a show that attempts to normalize “throuples,” or romantic threesomes. While MRC Culture contacted a corporate spokeswoman for an answer, AT&T didn’t respond by time of publication.
With episode titles such as “Like Riding a Vagina Bike,” the show is highly edgy. And its content is offensive to many Americans, although “viewers have opened their hearts and minds to embrace the unique relationship,” AT&T Senior VP Chris Long clarified.
Season 2’s premiere falls on Valentine’s Day, which is “appropriate” according to US Weekly’s Elizabeth Durand Streisand and Deadline’s Anthony D’Alessandro. And an upcoming “kiss me” competition among the trio starring in the show? “That’s love, people,” Streisand gushed.
Just as Will & Grace normalized the gay lifestyle in the early 2000s, You Me Her is a blatant attempt to normalize polyamory. Despite what many progressives would deny, sexual deviancy is a slippery slope. Gay marriage paved the way for other heretofore taboo behaviors. Deadline's Pete Hammond called polyamory "TV's new sexual frontier." And show creator John Scott Shepherd has confessed as much, describing his attempt to "mainstream" the behavior and make it "relatable."
This Valentine’s Day, as BDSM-promoting flick Fifty Shades Darker also hits theatres, Americans must remain wary of the liberal media’s relentless attacks on the definition of love and marriage.
