BIG HOLIGAY MARKET

Jo for our send annual Big HoliGAY Market at Ozark Beer Co Downtown Rogers. A qutn popped to my queer ltle bra right then, though, and I'm not entirely sure why:Could Rogers have quietly been a homophobe?

BIG GAY MARKET STAR GAYZG

It's a toxic batn that, if we're overgeneralizg and I reflect on my personal experience, tends to produce the worst kds of homophob. In a dark and dreary world, Rogers was a reliably bright light, and I wanted whatever I disvered to nfirm my spicns that the beloved children's advote was a benevolent force for good — and nothg one thg I've e to learn as a jad gay man is that the more flawls a fave of me seems to be, the harr they fall om the high pestal I've placed them on once their shortgs evably air. He didn't let his fah box him to any certa iology regardg gay people or their rights.

Rogers' widow, Joanne, has said her hband had close iends who were gay, acrdg to also stood strong agast outsi prsur to e his platform to nmn same-genr relatnships, acrdg to Vox's Todd VanDerWerff.

Panng homosexualy likely would have been appld by many parents tung , as mastream Ameri wily embraced homophobic attus throughout much of Rogers' reign. While Rogers hired and beiend Franis Clemmons — a gay man who played Officer Clemmons the seri for 25 years — he didn't necsarily want the show associated wh Clemmons' sexual orientatn, eher.

A BIG GAY MARKET

After word got back to Rogers that Clemmons had been spotted a gay bar, Rogers asked the actor to avoid such venu, fearful Clemmons' sexualy would brg negative attentn to the show.

Even on queer issu, Rogers evolved as time went Long wrote for HuffPost 2014, Rogers' perspective on Clemmons' sexualy shifted throughout the years: "Rogers evintly believed Clemmons would tank his reer had he e out as a gay man the late 1960s. As untls gays me out more publicly followg the Stonewall uprisg, Rogers even urged Clemmons to enter to a longterm and stable gay relatnship. And he always warmly weled Clemmons’ gay iends whenever they vised the televisn set Ptsburgh.
