Glee: Sex, Songs and Sleaze

By Erin R. Brown | February 03, 2011 | 13:21

The popular show 'Glee' has caused a stir with lesbian fantasies, gay kissing, teen pregnancy and racy photos of the actors - the new season is sure to display more immorality-promoting content. As 'Gleeks' everywhere eagerly anticipate the return of their show, they should be reminded that it isn't just innocent, happy show tunes that this 'groundbreaking' show promotes.

Fox's hit musical/comedy has garnered acclaim from TV critics everywhere, having received in its first season, 19 Emmy nominations, one in every comedy category, and four Golden Globe nominations, including taking home the Golden Globe for Best TV Series - Comedy or Musical.

Video below the fold.

2011 is shaping up to be another praise-worthy year for 'Glee' - the comedy/musical has once again taken the Golden Globe for Best TV Series for its category and gym teacher Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) and gay protagonist Kurt (Chris Colfer) walked away with Best Supporting Actress and Actor awards, respectively. It has attracted as many as 12.3 million viewers on its second season premiere and is one of the highest grossing sales on iTunes, with 'Glee' cast songs receiving more than 13 million digital single sales to date.

UK Guardian writer Sam Wollaston thanked the Almighty for 'Glee's' February return saying, '…praise the Lord its back, at last there's something joyous on television for a man in a mid-winter midlife crisis to look forward to.' Rob Owen of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said that 'Glee' is 'delightful enough to qualify as a fall favorite.'

Entertainment Weekly writer Ken Tucker was so confident in the success of 'Glee' that he wrote that the show 'blasts past any defenses you might put up against it.'

The media love 'Glee,' calling the show a 'quirky, sweet, humorous, nonpartisan funfest,' and a 'truly groundbreaking new comedy.' But despite its quick wit and impressive following, 'Glee' has a disgusting track record of underage drinking, one night stands, anti-conservative jabs, teen pregnancy, and smutty performances.

Sexually Confused High School Students are the Norm

Bisexual teen girls making out in revealing cheerleading outfits referencing sex acts is just another typical scene viewers will see on 'Glee.' In April 2010, two of the show's popular cheerleaders, Santana and Brittany, were shown cuddling and kissing on a bed, professing their love to one another. Santana (played by Naya Rivera), lying on top of Brittany (Heather Morris) in their skimpy cheerleading outfits, welcomed the kissing and referred to a lesbian sex act when she said, 'It's a nice break from all that scissoring.' These actors are portraying high school students, all of 16 or 17 years old.

When emotionally unstable and famously gay hero Kurt (Chris Colfer) received an unexpected kiss from a beefy high school bully, the media was unsurprisingly, apathetic. On the November 9, 2010, episode titled 'Never Been Kissed,' typical high school bully character Karofsky, in an emotional tirade, planted a kiss Kurt in a disturbing locker-room scene.

Kurt's emerging sexuality has been a major theme throughout the two seasons of 'Glee' thus far. In one emotionally charged episode, Kurt is forced to confront his inappropriate feelings for straight, handsome football quarter back Finn (Cory Monteith), the fellow Glee club member he loves.

In 'Theatricality,' Finn's mom decided that the two of them are moving in with Kurt and his father and Kurt used the opportunity to encourage the arrangement for Kurt and Finn to share a room. The tension builds Kurt decided to redecorate their shared room while Finn was away. Finn came back and addressed their relationship and the room's effeminate new design. 'You don't think I see the way you stare at me? How flirty you get? You think I don't know why you were so excited we were moving in?' Finn said. Kurt replied by telling Finn that they can redecorate and Finn, obviously offended by the feminine décor, shouted for him to get rid of 'that faggy lamp and then we need to get rid of this faggy couch blanket.'

Kurt's father Burt (Mike O'Malley) overheard the boys' exchange and came running in accusing Finn of calling his gay son a 'fag.' Finn defends himself against Burt, saying that he merely called the decorations by the homosexual slur and not his son. Burt launches into a two minute long lecture about the use of the word 'fag,' calling that rhetoric 'poison.'

Promiscuity Reigns

Risque, underwear-clad musical numbers and prayers for sexual favors mark the first two seasons of 'Glee.'

'Glee' star Lea Michelle who plays 'Rachel,' a high school student, wore a belly-showing, bra-baring shirt, and an extremely short skirt, channeling Britney Spears' infamous Catholic school-girl outfit when she performed the hit 'Baby One More Time' in a Spears tribute episode that aired in September 2010. In the same episode, one of the high school boys, Jacob (Josh Sussman) is caught masturbating to the image of his classmate, Rachel, dressed as Spears.

In 'Grilled Cheesus,' Finn, a high school jock, is seen praying to 'Grilled Cheesus' - a grilled cheese sandwich resembling Jesus Christ in an October 2010 episode. Not only does Finn pray to the piece of bread and melted cheese, his selfish prayer is for help getting to second base with girlfriend, Rachel.

And in October 2010 a 'Glee' controversy became a sexy national story. Actors Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Dianna Agron engaged in a racy photo shoot for GQ magazine. The actors posed in character, in a high school setting, in seductive positions suggesting a threesome was in order. Michele was pictured in a full frontal crotch shot on a pine, locker room bench seductively holding a red lollipop. Parents Television Council President Tim Winter said the photo shoot 'borders on pedophilia' because the actors portrayed children.

Conservatives Under Fire

But beyond displaying sexually active and sexually confused high school students, 'Glee' also pushes a left-wing political agenda.

'Glee' took a shot at the intelligence of well-known political conservative Sarah Palin. As could be expected, the favorite media punching bag and vice-presidential candidate was the butt of a joke by gym teacher and 'Glee' villain, Sue Sylvester (played by Jane Lynch) in the April 13, 2010 episode. 'You may be two of the stupidest teens I've ever encountered,' Sylvester said insulting two cheerleaders. 'And that's saying something. I once taught a cheerleading seminar to a young Sarah Palin.'

Conservatives who believe in abstinence education for high school students got a slap in the face when the head of a chastity group became pregnant from a drunken one night stand. In season one, in a September 2009 episode titled 'Preggers,' cheerleader Quinn, a cross-necklace wearing good-girl and president of the 'Celibacy Club,' had told her boyfriend Finn that they should pray during intense make-out sessions. She initially believed Finn is the baby's father, and that they conceived the child in a hot tub. It is later discovered that Quinn's baby is the result of a single, alcohol-induced sexual encounter with another high school jock, Puck (Mark Salling).

The show went further to insult pro-abstinence conservatives when leading 'Glee' club member Rachel chastises the 'Celibacy Club,' in a tirade against abstinence education. 'Most studies have shown celibacy does not work in high school,' Rachel tells the club. 'Our hormones are driving us too crazy to abstain. The second we start telling ourselves there's no compromise we act out. The only way to beat teen sexuality is to be prepared. That's what contraception is for,' she said. Underage, drunken, unprotected sex among high school students that have pledged abstinence is the message 'Glee' is sending its viewers.

No Surprise

Objectionable content should be no surprise coming from 'Glee' creator Ryan Murphy. Known for pushing boundaries, Murphy is famous for his raunchy FX show 'Nip/Tuck' and according to the Examiner.com, '…Ryan Murphy has declared that it is his goal in life to remove every barrier to the depiction of explicit sex on TV,' wrote Charisse Van Horn from the Tampa Television Examiner. 'On Bravo's 'Sex in the Box' Murphy said, 'It's tough to get that sexual point of view across on television. Hopefully I have made it possible for somebody on broadcast television to do a rear-entry scene…''

'Glee's' family-unfriendly show has not gone unnoticed by faith and family groups. American Decency Association claimed that 'Glee' is dangerous because it is a mixed bag of 'catchy vocal production numbers' and 'sexualized themes and secular humanist propaganda indoctrinating viewers.'

The Parents Television Council is no fan of the show aimed at teens. President Tim Winter said ''Glee' is only masquerading as a family show and is far from appropriate for young viewers.'

But all this controversy seems to have finally made an impact on Murphy, who told The Hollywood Reporter that he has been hearing about 'pushing the line' from fans. When discussing his reaction to the October GQ photo spread, Murphy said, 'And I think all parties involved learned a lesson about how parents look to the show as something inspirational and aspirational,' Murphy said. 'We all realized that we have to be a little more careful when it comes to sexuality…From now on, I will sweat every single word and how we're presenting it.'

To the spelling Nazis and the Spelltards*:

Spelling Nazis - get over yourselves, you are the ones who judge the form instead of the content - in high school (69 grad talk about irony), I never passed an essay because your brethren anal retentive English Teachers of that era (all dead now thankfully) would scrawl an "F" on every paper upon discovering the third misspelled word - twenty years later I had an affordable machine on my desk that obviated the need to memorize 50,000 words I might use in writing 10 times in a life time. Note: that by that artifice I have improved greatly and find myself also very irritable about other's misspelling (See below for why).

 

Spelltards* - if you wish to opine in a forum online (and be taken seriously), you know that Spelling Nazis  are out there.  They will use the occasion of your misspellings to assail your ideas and insult your intelligence plus write you off as a lower life form.  So...what you need to do is write your response, copy it, paste it into your word processor, let the spelling/grammar verifier help you, copy again and paste into the post window.  Or better yet compose in the word processor copy then post.

 

*Unrecognized by my word processor’s spelling verifier – but I am sure you recognize them and accept the spelling. Note: I am also a spelltard.

Shawn,

As you were told, just because something is popular it does not mean that it is good, moral, etc.

Geez, look at Nazi Germnay, Hitler was quite popular, right? he was loved and adored by the vast majority of Germans. Using your logic, Hitler was an awesome individual, great, excellent since his "ratings" were quite high! careful with the logic you use to excuse things.

My wife and kids no longer watch regular television, even cable t.v. we have done away with. We have Netflix streaming through our WII and we watch movies and tv shows that we can control, turn off if we do not like, etc.

I believe that television shows are so horrific, so bad that bad stuff like Glee is about the only thing to watch. While this is anecdotal evidence, all the people that watch Glee watch it for the music. 99% of them said if it wasn't for the music, they wouldn't watch it. And that is the key to Glee and in fact many other evil things, they appeal to the human senses and use it to push a message. You can't deny that Glee is not about pushing Left wing agenda when it comes to homosexuality.

I saw two episodes of Glee, I found it shallow, dumb, pathetic, moronic, simple, stupid, full of Left wing cliches.

Sadly, the more this type of stuff is shown on television, the more people accept the abhorrant behavior shown in Glee.

cajun2,

I have never understood how anyone has ever bought into the lie that the Left is pro-women.

The Left constantly pushes for legalizing prostitution- Men using women as sex objects.

The Left worships pornography- The vast majority of porn watchers are men. Porn shows women being used by men

The Left loves abortions- Great way for men never to have to take responsability for infidelity, pedophilia, etc. Girls are aborted at a much higher rate than boy babies.

The Left has embraced Islam- Islam hates women.

The Left constantly embraces shows like Glee which trivilize women and portray women as mere sexual objects for the pleasure of others.

 

so, can anyone please tell me how Left wingers care about women? Since the feminist revolution of the 1960s women have lost more than they have gain!

Glee is a terrible show. However, the sad thing, what shows that our civilization is going downhill quite fast, is that over 12 million people watch this garbage.

Your offensive comment about Damama is why I originally responded. NBers like her are above your pay grade.

If I am wrong I will gladly retract that. I reason why I take such great pleasure at watching people like you having a hissy fit over a tv show is that you have absolutely no influence at all and fans of Glee do not need to worry about folks like you If your opinion actually mattered to people like Rupert Murdoch I would be worried, but I can sleep at night at fine.

I just find it amazing that just after Shawn tells you how you won't engage him. He turns around and doesn't engage me. LOL

I am  hoping that he sees the irony of complaining to you that you won't engage him.

Let us hope that his arguments on how he can do this are better than his pro-pornography, pro-drugs arguments.

Rupert Murdoch does not care about what I think. He cares what me and 12 million other people think. We viewers help with how much he gets paid in ad revenue and royalties on iTunes Rupert is a brilliant businessman. That is why Fox news and Fox Tv are number one. Glee does not have a political agenda accept for making money. I agree, not sure what you are arguing about my friend :-)

You said, and I quote, "Rupert Murdoch does not care about what I think." AGREED! then you say, "He cares what me....think" ??? So, which one is it, does he care or doesn't he care?

He doesn't care what you think. The ONLY thing he cares is the AMOUNT of people watching the show. The second that it is is only you and a few others watching the show, he could careless. So, no, he doesn't care what you think Shawn. Stop thinking you are important. LOL

You are just too good for me the way you never have meltdowns and is consistently cool as a cucumber and never namecall and stick with the facts. How can a person like me compete with that?;-) okay let me explain again and hopefully you will understand. Glee needs viewers. I am one of those viewers so they need us as a whole, but let's not talk about that. Murdoch does not need Shawn, lets be clear about that. what I mean about happiness is that no matter how much the morality police scream at the top of their lungs to get shows like Glee off the air, it has zero affect. Same with their fruitless efforts to try to bring down certain other things. It makes me happy to watch adult entertainment prosper while they foam at the mouth. It is like reliving the November elections everyday. Hope understand now :-)

Shawn,

LOL, so, nothing on your hypocrisy crying over Cajun2 not engaging you, eh?  LOL

Yes, we all know that you applaud the porn industry thriving using under age kids, being involved in drugs, using kidnapped women and pushing pornography on 10 to 17 year olds.

Believe me, it doesn't surprise me at all that you get all warm and fuzzy watching a show which portrays under age kids having sex.  

No one wants to censor Glee, it is just about making the public aware of what they are watching.  You know, Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the press. No where does the author of this article ask for Glee to be censored, duh! But nothing more than perverts hate than the truth being spoken, You are so afraid of your filth being taken away that you equate being told that you are watching filth to censoring. LOL

Glee doesn't need you, Shawn, buddy. Once again you are giving yourself too much importance.  You can die tomorrow and Glee will go on or if it loses enough viewers, it will not go on despite you watching it until your little boy is happy. Amazing how selfish people always believe that they are more important than they truly are. LOL

I'm not sure why  you are still focusing on that. Also not sure why you are bringing up the porn industry. Adult entertainment can mean many things like South Park and Howard Stern.

Mr. Bozells PTC is always  trying to get threaten sponsors of Glee which is totally his right, so I believe that he would like to censor Glee. Since you are the one that is bringing pornography up, you have told me in the past that you would always try your best to make it illegal, so I figured you might feel the same about Glee.

I never accused the author of wanting the censor Glee. I figure people like Damama or Cajun most likely would, but I also said I would retract it, if that was not the case.

"LOL, so, nothing on your hypocrisy crying over Cajun2 not engaging you, eh?  LOL"

Shawn, 1) Do you read what

Submitted by Liberallies on Sat, 02/05/2011 - 3:11am.

Shawn,

1) Do you read what you type? LOL YOU brought up the adult industry, not I. Do you read what you type? are you so worried about attempting to "win" a debate that you forget what you say? LOL

2) How can you claim that Mr. Bozell wants censorship of Glee? How the heck do you equate boycotting Glee sponsors to censorship? c'mon you can't be serious. Do you even know the legal meaning of censorship? are you aware that only the government can censor you?

3) Pornography should be illegal because it is involved in the trafficking of drugs, it uses under age girls, and it also uses kidnapped girls. I told you once, if it only involved men and women involved in the porn industry out of their own free will, it will be between God and them. But anyone with an ounce of brain and capable of critical thinking knows that there are countless of individuals involved in the porn industry despite their free will.

4) Me asking for Glee to be off the air? nope, I believe in the free market. While I believe the show is shallow, dumb, ridiculous, pathetic, for individuals with IQs below 50, I don't want anything taken off the air which involves adults being involved out of their own free will.

5) You have engaged me after I showed your hypocrisy. You never addressed it. You were crying over Cajun2 not engaging me while at the same time doing everything within your power to not engage me. You have never addressed this.

6) It still obvious to anyone that reads yoru posts on sexuality and porn that you are all happy, warm and fuzzy when you watch Glee. I mean the best thing that they show is adult women playing under age kids having sex. You seem to really enjoy this.  

You seem to really enjoy anything that portrays women as being used, abused and treated like sexual objects. Hey, if that is your cup of tea and how you want your daughter to perceive the world, that is on you. but don't get upset when and make false claims about individuals because you do not like the reality of the consequences of what you enjoy to watch and get off on.

Maybe Murphy was told to clean it up, or else. He's shown that he won't do it on his own. And it's a damn shame - these young actors are supremely talented and play likable characters, but Murphy has exploited all of that to push his hippie-like view that "if it feels good, do it."

Glee is basically a nice story line, and great things could come from the show without the Machiavellian Murphy's defiance of traditional morality.

So, let's recap:

We are running up the debt every day in this nation that our grandkids' grandkids won't be able to pay off.

We just signed away our right to develop missle defense.

We have arguably the most openly corrupt regime since Tea Pot Dome in office.

We have effectivly shut down drilling and nuclear while the middle east is exploding in a self destructive orgy of iron age mythologically inspired hate.

And folks are getting worked up over a tv show when all tv's have an "off" switch.  Priorities people, when you attack people who like shows like this you assure that they will never, ever, lend a hand to help conservatives with the real problems.

We can be concerned for both the challenges from without and the rot from within.

And "Glee" is part of the rot.

It's never been welcome in my home, and never will be.  However, it is welcome in a lot of American homes, and more's the pity.  How amazing that the Fox network can pump out such dreck.

You do have a point, though.  We should contact the sponsors of "Glee" and let them know we're staying away from what those sponsors sell.

And as for Rupert?  We should let him know we're spending at least an hour less per week watching Fox.

--Mike

P.S.: And who sponsors "Glee"?  Their sponsors have included Kimberly-Clark, Hanes, Domino's Pizza, Dove Soap, and Target.

No influence at all

Submitted by iveseenitall on Thu, 02/03/2011 - 3:22pm.

Aw, come on. Nothing influences young people to act a certain way. Nothing gives them them the opportunity to see what are the "accepted" mores of a society. Nothing will change their behavior. This can be seen no more clearly than in the wonderful public schools we have in America. Or in a decent young person's life in the ghetto. Smut is fine. Besides, if a show makes them "feel good"--go for it.  

How low can we go? And when will the "liberals" reach their point of satisfaction? Unfortunately, we've only just begun.  For those who are defending this crap--open a history book

P.S. Those who defend this probably would condemn their own mother,wife or kid if they apppeard like this on t.v. ( or maybe not)

Incestmo LOVES freedom of speech unless of course it is legitimate criticism of crap on television.  In which case he demands you keep your mouth shut.

Nowhere in the post you are responding to is a demand for censorship; it is a mere criticism of crap.  Unfortunately for you, sick freak, if we are free to makle a stupid show like Glee, we are also free to not watch, and say why we won't. 

Please point out for me where there is a call for censorship here. 

Until then, keep you mouth shut in regards to anyone else's reading comprehension skills other than your own.  Besides, I bet you are ALL OVER Glee if they ever get around to depicting incest.

Incestmo the authoritarian

Submitted by Unsane on Fri, 02/04/2011 - 12:35pm.

And this is why you are not a libertarian either.  (Libertarians don't feel comfortable with the government dishing out allowance money either, but you are positively in love with the idea.  But that is a different topic for a different time.)

See, both you and Dave are comfortable with the existence of Glee and cheerfully support its right to exist.  As do I.  I think that it, along with the rest of television, provides me with a good enough reason to condemn the medium as a  cesspool.  My seeing the Glee previews (how can I miss them watching local news on Fox?) and my interactions with the shows fans shows me that it has a special appeal for those for whom high school was a wonderful experience.  Right there its appeal stops, even before I take anything else into consideration. 

But if you, or Dave, or shawn, TRULY libertarian - you would welcome criticisms such as that provided by Erin Brown.  Why?  Because if some sort of work for television, radio, theater, whatever, is produced - it will draw both praise AND criticism for a variety of reasons, and both will inform potential viewers of the product.  All three of you should be singing Erin Brown's praises.

But NO!  You AND Dave (and shawn) are ENRAGED to no end that someone would DARE to point out the flaws of Glee.  Your response?  "Change the channel" or "use the power button on the television".

Actually, since you are not just a sick freak who desperately needs to be locked up but also a condescending, authoritarian asshole who has a penchant for scolding and lecturing people for YOUR OWN FAILINGS, I'll quote you directly. 

"I'll bet your television has both a power button and a channel button. No one is forcing anyone to watch a television show. If you object to content, then change the channel."

In other words, while the creators and producers of Glee have limitless freedom of speech, Erin Brown and other critics have no right to criticize Glee.  Her ONLY right is to shut up and change the channel.  Glee even has the right to be perpetually shielded from ANY criticism. 

Incestmo, your own words repeatedly show me that you are no libertarian, but rather, an authoritarian.  And it also shows me you like freedom of speech for some, but definitely not all. 

Now, STFU until you can show me where Erin Brown called for the censoring of Glee.  And learn to stop scolding and lecturing people for YOUR OWN FAILINGS.  It is you, not I, who has a very flawed understanding of what a libertarian is and has zero understanding of freedom of speech.  Being a libertarian means a lot more than fighting for the freedom to have sex with your relatives.

If you possessed any reading skills, you would know that I never endorsed incest. Also, I'll point out that you are the only person here who is telling someone else to shut up, even though you falsely accuse others of doing so, but that's the poor reading skills and projection thing again.

Personal liberty = incest A-OK

Submitted by SickofLibs on Fri, 02/04/2011 - 8:21pm.

You should have taken my advice in that first incest thread-for-the-ages: change your screen name and never say another thing about incest.

But no, here you are months later, 500 beatdowns later,  STILL defending your reprehensible position. Do you think we're just gonna go "Oh yeah, I get him now!" at some point?

Do me a favor: explain what you're getting out of this. In case it hasn't dawned on you, you are an effing pariah here, yet you seem to enjoy it. Maybe it's because you're so principled that the rest of us hicks just don't get it.

I believe you are a textbook example of a delusional passive-aggressive.

And I'm just guessing, but I have a feeling we'll be seeing you in a Planned Parenthood sting someday.

Don't you understand that incest creates babies with limited gene pools and they are more likely to have issues like down's syndrome? It's really not a good idea to let incestuous idiots propagate their species. That's why it's illegal, not just because it's gross. Besides, you can't seriously think a father willing to sleep with his daughter is guilty of anything less than domestic abuse.

Liberals faint with horror over a woman who smokes or drinks while pregnant, but deliberately getting pregnant in a way that increases debilitating birth defects is cool with you guys.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Link.

seventy percent of Pakistanis and forty percent of Turks are inbred (Jyllands-Posten, 27/2 2009 “More stillbirths among immigrants”). Research shows that the same goes for close to half of all Arabs (Reproductive Health Journal, 2009 “Consanguinity and reproductive health among Arabs”).

Research published in The Journal of Aggression and Violent Behaviour has proven a connection between suicide bombers and depression and physical handicaps (BT, December 15th 2010 “Why most terrorists are useless”). Research suggests that many suicide bombers are suffering from depression, and their actions are just a socially accepted (among Muslims) way of committing suicide in order to end their mental torment.

Yusuf Yadgari of the Medical University of Kabul has autopsied the remains of suicide bombers and his findings support this theory. Yadgari found that close to ninety percent were suffering from severe illness such as blindness, cancer, missing limbs or leprosy. Many Muslim societies, including that of Afghanistan, have a low social acceptance of handicaps and severe illnesses. According to Yadgari, being physically handicapped or mentally retarded often leads to exclusion in a society like Afghanistan, and becoming a martyr might be the only chance of achieving social recognition and honour — if not just a way to end the pain of being socially isolated (which is especially traumatizing in collectivist cultures like Islam). Al Qaida’s use of people with Down’s syndrome might be another unpleasant side effect of the many chromosomal illnesses resulting from inbreeding between first cousins.

A relatively low percentage of those with DS get married or have children. Most have significant fertility issues. It's mentally, psychologically, and physically difficult for them to enter or maintain a reciprocating sexual relationship or become parents.

You keep looking at this from a social stigma-type viewpoint, when we're pointing out the biological trauma unnecessarily inflicted on innocent children. Get your head out of your liberal box.

DS should be seen as pars pro toto for every genetic disorder that is inheritable.

Again: What I'm concerned with is that your argument leads inevitably to the notion that all people who have elevated risks of inheriting genetic disorders should be banned from procreating. That is something I find highly problametic.

The question whether and how people should consider what it means to procreate when such risks are involved is a different matter.

Eugenics and genetics are two very different issues. Eugenics is a theory or ideology designed to redo or redesign a societal or racial determination. That can be done by isolation, genocide, or racial profiling for reproduction. Genetics is an entirely different biology/ science though eugenics can be used to alter societal make up,it would take generations.

When you have a DNA strain/sequence  with a dominate/recessive gene say for webbed feet, that particular genome in its dom/rec form is inherited by offspring. If you mate parent/offspring, the chances of that particular dominate/recessive gene of becoming dominate/dominate increases significantly and, then you have offspring with webbed feet. Because of the repeated genome of dominate for webbed feet, the greater the chances of each generation of offspring for webbed feet. By avoiding mating closely related genetic strains, you can eventually have the rec/rec gene for webbed feet and reduce its chances of appearing for generations.

See the difference troggy?

Trying to keep a race "pure", for instance, the link Bru showed you regarding the Brit/Pak. genetic problems, has risks since it is only a theory or ideology. Intermarrying for the purpose of keeping the race or ethnic group "pure" is called EUGENICS and generally has the opposite affect. Genetics and simple biology has a way of disrupting any societal "theories". The results of biology are predetermined and no societal theories or belief in eugenics is going to go the way you hope.

If indeed, pedophilia and incest is acceptable to Brit/Pak for the purpose of keeping the group "pure" has resulted in a large percentage of the population "retarded" then that could eventually become another eugenics theory of genocide self imposed as an inadvertant result of the GENETIC manipulation.

For a fetus to develop it has to have certain contributions from the father and the mother. When people are closely related the baby doesn't get the proper chromosomes.

That is exactly what WB says. If you want to make the argument, that there are health risks for the child. That is fine. If you want to argue that this is the reason why it should be outlawed, then you have to consider that other couples might have similar risks while not being related. This in turn would imply necesseraly that procreation in such cases has to be outlawed too. I am not willing to go down that road. You don't have to justify policies with science. Morals can be enough.

On a side note: What increases is the risk. And "nature can tolerate" something like that, as there are numerous examples of children born out of incest.

Oh, and while I'm here. You can't conflate the issue of a few people with DS who are capable of getting married choosing to do so, (they rarely choose to get pregnant, as it is life-threatening for a woman with DS to get pregnant) with a widespread acceptance of incest. The first poses no risk to the population, while the second leads inevitably to serious genetic decline of the entire population that practices it.

More than half of Pakistani immigrants living in Britain are intermarried:

The research, conducted by the BBC and broadcast to a shocked nation on Tuesday, found that at least 55% of the community was married to a first cousin.

It's really not a good idea to let incestuous idiots propagate their species.

Replace the word incestuous with down-syndrome or any other genetic abberation and you might get this.

Like the percentage of women with DS who are physically capable of carrying a pregnancy to term. Cross-reference that with the percentage of women with DS who actually get married. Then cross-reference that with the percentage who do choose to have a baby. It's infinitestimal, not to mention irrelevant to a discussion on incest. Or are you going to posit on incestuous disabled people, now?

BEFORE there was a eugenics movement - millenia before there was a eugenics movement, or even the thought of one - incest was (and is) considered taboo in the extreme by countless societies, cultures, and religions around the world. 

This blows your flawed notion straight to hell. 

Besides, since you are using Wikipedia, you demonstrate yourself once again to be an intellectual flop.  Use an actual legitimate source for a change.

Troglodyt,

What the hell are you arguing for? incest? WOW....Liberals are disgusting individuals, but I don't think that is news.

I have heard the pro-incest argument always from Liberals. WOW!!!

Any and all arguments, debates, anything and everything you have ever said on NB....you just discredited with this disgusting pro-incest argument.

But that is what happens to a mind and culture when Liberalism is taken to its full logic. When anything and everything goes, when sex is only about pleasure and children can be aborted, why worry about incestual relationships, right?  WOW!!!!!

This is just freaking disgusting!!!

Yes, I do understand that there is that potential. I never once defended incest. I said that It is no business of government's what two consenting adults do in the privacy of their own home, so long as no one's life, liberty, or property is being violated. And no one is arguing that it's a good idea or should be a means of propogation. The reason why it's illegal is debatable. As for your last comment, if there is consent without force or fraud, then there is no abuse.

You won't read this post as well but a small reminder. When a man abuses his parental authority over his own child to groom that child into a sexual relationship, the age of the "child" is irrelevant because it is no longer "consensual". She has been programmed to accept abnormal behavior for the parent's pleasure, certainly not in the best interest of the child. That distortion of parent/child relationship has been perverted in such a way that the "child", regardless of age, is unable to make valid judgement for consent.That is why it is against the law.

Hence, she is happy to see Fox exercise its First Amendment rights, and she is exercising her own.  What in the hell is the problem?

Wrathful Brunette: Down's Syndrome IS NOT GENETIC.

Pervmo: Down Syndrome is inherently genetic

Hmmmm. Someone is not talling the truth. Wrathful Brunette has a history of telling the truth. Whereas the 2 Liars, Little Boy Liar and his butt buddy Pervmo do not.

Judge? The Vet has arrived.

There is more than one definition for genetic. Let's get the full context here.

WB: The issue of people who have severe congenital disorders like DS reproducing does not apply to the issue of genetic damage caused by incest. Down's Syndrome IS NOT GENETIC. It IS NOT INHERITED.

As she is speaking to the idea of inheritance and reproduction, we must chose the following definition.

S: (adj) familial, genetic, hereditary, inherited, transmitted, transmissible (occurring among members of a family usually by heredity) "an inherited disease"; "familial traits"; "genetically transmitted features"

Now, by that definition, is Down Syndrome genetic? Can it be passed along in a family tree.

Can Down syndrome be inherited?

Most cases of Down syndrome are not inherited. When the condition is caused by trisomy 21, the chromosomal abnormality occurs as a random event during the formation of reproductive cells. The abnormality usually occurs in egg cells, but it occasionally occurs in sperm cells. An error in cell division called nondisjunction results in a reproductive cell with an abnormal number of chromosomes. For example, an egg or sperm cell may gain an extra copy of chromosome 21. If one of these atypical reproductive cells contributes to the genetic makeup of a child, the child will have an extra chromosome 21 in each of the body's cells.

Mosaic Down syndrome is also not inherited. It occurs as a random event during cell division early in fetal development. As a result, some of the body's cells have the usual two copies of chromosome 21, and other cells have three copies of this chromosome.

Translocation Down syndrome can be inherited. An unaffected person can carry a rearrangement of genetic material between chromosome 21 and another chromosome. This rearrangement is called a balanced translocation because there is no extra material from chromosome 21. Although they do not have signs of Down syndrome, people who carry this type of balanced translocation are at an increased risk of having children with the condition.

+++

Three percent to 4 percent of babies born with Down syndrome have translocation Down syndrome.

++++

Translocation Down syndrom can be inherited BUT only from an unaffected person. What did WB say? ...people who have severe congenital disorders like DS reproducing... Whoops. She did not say the unaffected person reproducing. SHE SAID THE DS PERSON REPRODUCING.

+++

Although there have been rare exceptions, men with Down syndrome cannot father a child. In any pregnancy, a woman with Down syndrome has a 50/50 chance of conceiving a child with Down syndrome, but many pregnancies are miscarried.

+++

Where one parent has Down's syndrome, there is a 35% to 50% chance that the child would inherit the syndrome. This chance is even higher where both parents have Down's syndrome. There is also a high chance that pregnancy would end in miscarriage. Women with Down's syndrome are also more likely than other women to have a premature baby, or to need a caesarian section.

+++

So in general, 97% of DS comes from RANDOM events in cell formation and reproduction.

The 3% of DS comes from largely from unaffected people.

DS men are infertile. DS women have a high chance of miscarriage if they do opt to have a child and they rarely do.

______________________

---> Point goes to WB   <---

______________________

Wait. There is one more thing.

 WB:  ...does not apply to the issue of genetic damage caused by incest.

++++

Does incest increase the risk of having a child with Down's Syndrome?

  Best Answer - Chosen by Asker Incest wouldn't increase the risk of Down Syndrome, which is caused by failure of the chromosomes to split up evenly when a cell divides. Extra genetic material from Chromosome 21 interferes with proper development of the fetus. The longer an egg waits before dividing, the more likely it is to divide improperly, so older mothers are more likely to have fetuses with chromosomal abnormalities. This happens before fertilization, and the status of the father (age, relationship to the mother, etc.) has nothing to do with it. If the same error occurs in development of a sperm cell, Down Syndrome could come from the father, but this is rare and also uninfluenced by incest. There are also uncommon cases of Down Syndrome resulting from translocation of part of Chromosome 21 to another chromosome. Men or women who carry such unbalanced chromosomes have a high risk of producing offspring with Down Syndrome, but incest would not increase that risk, either.

So should WB have explained all this in detail as I did? As she was largely correct, and by largely I mean really really largely correct, no. And she did not need to delve this far into detail just to get a point across that is really really really largely correct.
 
Her detractors could have said it, instead of dismissing her out of hand but they are 2 little Sissies just like balboa, j. frank wilson. And has anyone seen any sissy troll now or in the past go this much into detail to get their point across? Hah, that will be the day.

We must choose a definition. We must. Otherwise the vet can't prove his point. So we must. What a judge! Genetic as in relating to genetics cannot be considered, because otherwise he doesn't have anything to brag about.

Translocation Down syndrom can be inherited BUT only from an unaffected person. What did WB say? ...people who have severe congenital disorders like DS reproducing... Whoops. She did not say the unaffected person reproducing. SHE SAID THE DS PERSON REPRODUCING.

 

Haven't you read your source? Most cases of Down syndrome are not inherited. Well Vet: Tell me what does the word "most" indicate? Is it synonymous to "all"? No? So there are cases where DS is inherited. Liar, Liar pants on fire? In your world yes.

That you bring up the hitherto unmentioned question whether incest increases the risk of getting children with DS is interesting, but unrelated to what we are talking about.

Oh, and one more thing, Pervmo. If you're going to take my use of genetic in that instance to mean, simply, 'having anything to do with genetic material", you merely prove your ignorance..again. Using 'genetic' in the singular form, as I did, means this..

(used with a sing. verb) The branch of biology that deals with heredity, especially the mechanisms of hereditary transmission and the variation of inherited characteristics among similar or related organisms.

To mean what you are indicating it means requires the use of the plural form. If I said, "DS has nothing to do with genetics" that would have been incorrect. As it is, you have made a fool of yourself. Again.

(used with a sing. verb) The branch of biology that deals with heredity, especially the mechanisms of hereditary transmission and the variation of inherited characteristics among similar or related organisms.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most cases of Down syndrome aren't inherited. They're caused by a mistake in cell division during the development of the egg, sperm or embryo.

Translocation Down syndrome is the only form of the disorder that can be passed from parent to child. However, only about 4 percent of children with Down syndrome have translocation. And only about half of these cases are inherited from one of the parents.

In these translocation cases (50% of 4%, mind you), the mother or father is a balanced carrier of the translocation, which means he or she has some rearranged genetic material, but no extra genetic material. A balanced carrier has no signs or symptoms of Down syndrome, but he or she can pass the translocation on to children.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The subject under discussions was whether or not people with Down's Syndrome having children has any detrimental effect on the overall gene pool. Trog brought this up in an effort to smear those against legalized incest as eugenicists. I pointed out that there is no connection between Down's Syndrome and incest. I also pointed out that the percentage of people with DS who are physically capable of reproducing is very small, and that it is not an inherited condition. Translocation DS does not apply to the argument because it is not inherited from a parent who suffers from it. Trog's parameters did not specify balanced carriers with no extra genetic material who present no signs of DS and in fact do not have classic Down's Syndrome.

Fish for a Hat.

Say, if it is NON-mosaic, it must be another kind.

Idiot.

We have found articles on the web that say OVER and OVER that only translocation can be heritable. SO TAKE whatever it is you think you learned from that study on a MALE DS and SHOVE IT UP YOUR REAR. You are a damnable liar. And no matter how many times you and your fellow trollies try to throw it back in my face, IT WILL NOT EVER STICK.

A chromosome study is also valuable to rule in or out a translocation (a type of rearrangement) of chromosome 21 that can be heritable in which case it can give rise to more cases of Down syndrome in the family .

Translocations resulting in trisomy 21 may be inherited...


This happens when there is an error in cell division and instead of 46 chromosomes dividing into two new cells with 23 each, one of the new cells will have 24 (and therefore the extra '21' chromosome). So it's not really a hereditary thing -- the chances of giving birth to a child with Down syndrome increases after the age of 35 or so, and in general the odds are 1 in 800 of having a child with Down syndrome.

Can Down syndrome be inherited?

Most cases of Down syndrome are not inherited. When the condition is caused by trisomy 21, the chromosomal abnormality occurs as a random event during the formation of reproductive cells. The abnormality usually occurs in egg cells, but it occasionally occurs in sperm cells. An error in cell division called nondisjunction results in a reproductive cell with an abnormal number of chromosomes. For example, an egg or sperm cell may gain an extra copy of chromosome 21. If one of these atypical reproductive cells contributes to the genetic makeup of a child, the child will have an extra chromosome 21 in each of the body's cells.

Mosaic Down syndrome is also not inherited. It occurs as a random event during cell division early in fetal development. As a result, some of the body's cells have the usual two copies of chromosome 21, and other cells have three copies of this chromosome.

Translocation Down syndrome can be inherited. An unaffected person can carry a rearrangement of genetic material between chromosome 21 and another chromosome. This rearrangement is called a balanced translocation because there is no extra material from chromosome 21. Although they do not have signs of Down syndrome, people who carry this type of balanced translocation are at an increased risk of having children with the condition.

In Mosaic Down syndrome, the extra chromosome spontaneously appears as the embryo develops. Translocation Down syndrome, which accounts for approximately five per cent of cases, is inheritable

+++

Standard Trisomy 21

The events that cause Down syndrome occur before conception and lead to a fertilised egg with an abnormal number of chromosomes in each cell - 47 rather than the normal 46. This is called a meiotic nondisjunction event.

‘Meiosis’ is the technical term used to describe the cell division that occurs in the reproductive organs of men and women and when it happens correctly eggs and sperm should each carry a set of 23 chromosomes. This is called a disjunction. However in some cases a pair fails to separate which leads to the one gamete (i.e., either a sperm or egg cell) having 24 chromosomes and the other 23 chromosomes. This is called a nondisjunction. As a result when this gamete of 24 chromosomes merges with a normal gamete (23 chromosomes) the embryo will have 47 chromosomes, which includes 3 copies of chromosome 21.

This is known as Standard Trisomy 21 and occurs in approximately 95% of children with Down syndrome.

Translocation Trisomy 21

Occasionally the extra copy of chromosome 21 is attached to another chromosome in the egg or sperm and this may result in Translocation Trisomy 21. This rearrangement of genetic material usually sees the extra copy of chromosome 21 attached to chromosome 14. Whilst the number of chromosomes present appears to be normal there is still a triplication of genetic material from chromosome 21 and hence Down syndrome results. The incidence of Translocation is 2-3% and without a karyotype test it is indistinguishable from standard trisomy 21.

Whilst Down syndrome is usually an unexpected event without a detectable cause, in 1 out of every 3 cases of Translocation it is possible that the condition was inherited from a parent. Some parents have what is called a ‘balanced translocation’ where the extra genetic material is attached to another chromosome but it does not affect their health. It is important for the parents to undergo a karyotype assessment to assess the risk for future pregnancies.

 

Mosaic Trisomy 21

In Standard Trisomy 21 all cells in the body carry 47 chromosomes however in Mosaic Trisomy 21 there is a mixture of trisomic and non trisomic cells i.e., some cells have 47 chromosomes whilst others have the usual 46. This occurs in approximately 1-2% of cases.

There are 2 ways Mosaic Trisomy 21 can occur. One is that a nondisjunction event (refer to Standard Trisomy 21 above) occurs in the early stages of a normal embryo’s development that leads to a small number of cells carrying triplicate material. The other is that an embryo already carrying Down syndrome splits in nondisjunction and a proportion of the cells revert back to a ‘normal’ formation.

The ratio of normal to abnormal cells varies widely amongst individuals with Down syndrome and impacts on the extent to which Down syndrome is evident.

Repeat with me: Translocation DS is not the same as trisomy 21. 

Again: 

Translocation DS is not the same as trisomy 21.

Again: 

Translocation DS is not the same as trisomy 21. 

More to the point: unbalanced Translocation DS is a subclass of trisomy 21, where the patient doesn't have three separate chromosomes 21 but one part of chromosome 21 is connected with chromosome 14.

There are cases where mothers with trisomy 21 (which causes Down's syndrome) give birth to children with trisomy 21 (you know which causes Down's syndrome). Neither the mother nor the child have Translocation DS. That is confirmed by table 1 in the study I linked. There the karyotype of the DS offspring is identified as 47, XX +21 or 47, XY +21 which is not Translocation DS as there is an additional chromosome, indicated by 47 and +21. Got it?

I believe you, that you didn't know anything about this 3 days ago. It is laudable that you want to learn about it. It is necessary though that you actually read what you link, that you think about it for a minute and that you are willing to understand it.

So. You. Have. Lied. Again. And. Again. 

BTW: Another example for one of your lies is that "DS men are infertile". Proven to be a lie by the linked article.

  Little lying boy troll's only contact with the outside world is trolling on a website.

  You were told DS cannot be inheriited. I have sources until my source button broke again that it cannot be inherited. Now you want to whine and repeat over and over what can be found in the  sourced quotes I have put here over and over. And to make what point? That you can count?

  You are once again saying things so blindingly stupid, it is pointless to continue.

 Translocation DS is not the same as trisomy 21 -- Who said it was. My quotes show it is not. Who claimed it was? Pointless repeated blather for what purpose?

unbalanced Translocation DS is a subclass of trisomy 21 -- Huh? There are unbalanced translocations. There are unbalanced translocations. There is NO unbalanced Translocation DS.. And Translocation DS is one of the 3 types of DS NOT a subclass of one of the others.

 ...the patient doesn't have three separate chromosomes 21 but one part of chromosome 21 is connected with chromosome 14.  -- Huh?  Translocation DS seen in 4% of DS has the extra 21 translocated to other chromosomes or to the acrocentric chromosomes of D and G group that is, 13,14,15,21 and 22.

trisomy 21 (which causes Down's syndrome) -- Huh? Trisomy 21 is one of the 3 types of Down Syndrome. Not a cause.

mothers with trisomy 21.. give birth to children with trisomy 21 -- And? A mother with DS is a greater RISK of having children with DS. Greater RISK. DS is not inherited with the exception of Translocation DS.

your lies is that "DS men are infertile" --  there have been only three recorded instances of males with Down syndrome fathering children There have been millions of DS people walking around this planet. Millions. I brought forward what I read. 3 documented cases out of millions. Wow. I iz liar because I wrote here what I read during researching DS because the Little Boy Liar and his girlfriend/sister Pervmo called someone a liar.

More whining.

And stupid. And lies.

DS is not inherited with the exception of Translocation DS.

Again my source proves beyond a doubt that this is wrong. Go back, read it and learn. I explained it to you. But again: There exist DS mothers without Translocation DS who gave birth to children with DS without Translocation DS. Period. 

Next is terminology (although I admit confusion is abundant): A syndrome is 

a group of signs and symptoms that occur together and characterize a particular abnormality or condition.

DS is comprised of the well known phenotypical signs (i.e. the typical facial abnormalities, sometimes heart problems, usually lower IQ levels etc.). The cause of DS is one of the forms of trisomy 21 (a source if you want it). Another example is the relationship of HIV and AIDS. They are not the same, but the former causes the latter. Pretty basic stuff.

But you are right about the (un)balanced Translocation DS. One shouldn't use the words together. Notice that Translocation DS (now you might ask huh? why is he talking about a syndrome when he means the cause? That is what I mean by confusion.) is actually Translocation trisomy 21 thereby a subclass of trisomy 21. Got it? 

3 documented cases out of millions. Wow. I iz liar because I wrote here what I read during researching DS because the Little Boy Liar and his girlfriend/sister Pervmo called someone a liar.

By your standards you'd not only be a liar, but I'd have to repeat that ad nauseam. Liar.

The part I qouted mentions cases where trisomy  21 is passed on...

+++++

Only Translocation Down syndrome is passed on from a parent that has a balanced Translocation. The only possible way for the idiot to be correct, actually there is no way for the idiot to be correct. Trisomy 21 cannot be passed from mother to child. But then we have sourced that to friggin' death.

Now you are arguing with a false statement to prove me wrong? If there ever was a fallacy, it is this.

But I try it once more: The karyotype of the DS offspring in the study mentioned above is either 47, XX +21 or 47, XY +21 (depending on whether the child is male or female). If it was Translocation DS (which is the only one being able to be passed on, according to you) it would be for example 46,XX,t(21;14), that is the number of chromosomes is still 46. But how I know you, you will simply ignore that and brag on as if nothing ever happened. LIAR.

How many times do we have to link that ONLY Translocation DS can possibly be inherited from a parent with a balanced translocation.

1.) Your implicit moving of goal posts (I'd call it backpeddling) and disingenuity: How many times do we have to link that ONLY Translocation DS can possibly be inherited from a parent with a balanced translocation.

Yes you have linked and claimed that, but it isn't the only claim you made and not the one I dispute. 

2.) I thought you were educated about this topic now and would understand what a karyotype is. Well you don't really need to understand what it is, just notice the difference in the description (you know the 46 xx stuff)

Free and homogeneous trisomy 21 (92,5 % of cases)

...

karyotype: 47,XY,+21 ou 47,XX,+21.

Trisomy 21 due to translocation:

...

karyotype with 46 chromosomes; the extra chromosome 21 is most often translocated with another acrocentric (groupe D: 14, 13 or 15 or groupe G: 21 or 22) chromosome; example: 46, XY, t(14;21).

Now go back to the source I linked, table 1 to be more precise, and notice that the karyotype of the offspring with trysomy 21 always matches the first case, that is they inherited it and it wasn't due to translocation. If you take all this into account I proved my point. 

Let's sum up, shall we? I've proven you wrong on your claim: "Translocation Down syndrome is the only form of the disorder that can be passed from parent to child."

I've proven you wrong on your claim: "The balanced translocation is not passed from parent to offspring."

I've proven you wrong on your claim: "DS men are infertile." Ok on this one you've proven yourself wrong, too. I'd even consider not calling it lie, but you make it so damn hard. And there it is: LIAR.

 I've proven you wrong on your claim: "DS men are infertile." - Already proved he lied in another post. This was 4 or 5 lines from a sourced quote that says it is with rare exceptions. REPEATING A LIE.

Saying you have proven something in the complete absense of actual proof, most especially when all are able to scroll up and down this page and read, is yet more lies on the pile..

Oh little lying trollie. We don't need to know nor do we care what a karotype is. It is not germane to showing YOU LIE over and over.

And selectively editing a website THAT PROVES YOU LIE is not the most intelligent move for a troll at all.

That "..." in his post above is this (about Trisomy 21 due to translocation) -

de novo or transmitted from a parental translocation (being a balanced translocation in the parent)

confirms this  --

ME if he quoted correctily : How many times do we have to link that ONLY Translocation DS can possibly be inherited from a parent with a balanced translocation.

Keep it up. You probably changed your narrative two posts ago because you understood that you were wrong.

But back to the claim from before, the one I disputed. So do you support the claim: "Translocation Down syndrome is the only form of the disorder that can be passed from parent to child."? 

Come on yes or no?

Submitted by Wrathful Brunette on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 5:23pm.

Translocation Down syndrome is the only form of the disorder that can be passed from parent to child. However, only about 4 percent of children with Down syndrome have translocation. And only about half of these cases are inherited from one of the parents.

In these translocation cases, the mother or father is a balanced carrier of the translocation, which means he or she has some rearranged genetic material, but no extra genetic material. A balanced carrier has no signs or symptoms of Down syndrome, but he or she can pass the translocation on to children.
