I understand it's a tv show and not a controlled scientific experiment. Still. Fascinating.

The comparison between the hostility / apathy encountered by the male couple vs. the female couple is also interesting in the extreme. The piece kind of hinted at that and then fast forwarded past it. Too bad: I'd like to know how the *gender* of the gay couple affects the degree of hostility encountered in the general population.
