"Good lookg guys wh good lookg signs, they have to be gay! And no, they’re not gay.

IT’S TIME TO PUT THOSE PKY GAY RUMORS TO RT ABOUT THE ‘PROPERTY BROTHERS’

Unver the tth behd the Property Brothers' sexual orientatns as we addrs the trigug gay mors. Dive to their personal liv and set the rerd straight! * renovation brothers gay *

“Good lookg guys wh good lookg signs, they have to be gay!

But the Ga’ populary — alongsi speculatn about their offscreen relig beliefs and polics — has land them at the center of an anti-gay ntroversy. In particular, their fah and their beliefs on same-sex marriage and LGBTQ rights have e to qutn due to the anti-gay views held by the pastor of their church.

CHIP AND JOANNA GA AND THE ANTI-GAY NTROVERSY OVER HGTV'S FIXER UPPER, EXPLAED

After untls renovatns for strangers, the Property Brothers are vg you to their home. First, they dispel mors (they’re not gay!) and share their secrets to succs. * renovation brothers gay *

BuzzFeed brought up qutns about the Ga’ pastor and why Fixer Upper never featur gay upl.

And why hasn’t Fixer Upper ever featured a gay uple while other HGTV shows have — is bee the hosts believe what Seibert preach?

HGTV ON HULU: JT THE GAY COUPL, PLEASE!

Specifilly, she c Seibert’s ments that most LGBTQ people are LGBTQ bee they were abed, and that he believ ’s possible for gay people to bee straight if they m to dog so:.

I’ve worked wh people for over 30 years — I have seen hundreds of people personally change their directn of same-sex attractn om a homosexual liftyle to a heterosexual liftyle. Conversn therapy is banned five stat and Washgton, DC; the Amerin Psychologil Associatn stat that nversn therapy and ex-gay mistry (the ia that sexualy n be changed through relign) n be dangero:. [S]uch efforts [nversn therapy or ex-gay mistry] have ser potential to harm young people bee they prent the view that the sexual orientatn of lbian, gay, and bisexual youth is a mental illns or disorr, and they often ame the abily to change one’s sexual orientatn as a personal and moral failure.

What we do know is that there hasn’t been a gay uple featured on any of Fixer Upper’s 40-pl episos to date (the upl featured also tend to be whe); that fact was the apparent impet for Aurthur’s article.

HGTV FLIPS FOR GAYS NEW HOME IMPROVEMENT SHOW ‘DOWN TO THE STUDS’ (VIO)

Is the lack of gay upl featured on Fixer Upper the Ga’ choice, and if is, then is discrimatn?

Ameri’s gay muni are bet wh elevated rat of anxiety, prsn, substance abe, and suici. The roundabout logic French — that gay people would be ls sad if they jt listened to God, whom he argu has told people that ’s okay to discrimate agast gay people and make said gay people sad — is really somethg.

BENHAM BROTHERS LOSE HGTV SHOW AFTER ‘ANTI-GAY’ REMARKS

There’s a b of glossg over of Seibert’s quot about nversn therapy and discrimatn agast gay upl (you n hear those quot full this 2015 sermon he gave rponse to the legalizatn of same-sex marriage), as well as generalizg the BuzzFeed piece wh the claratn that “liberals hate the Christian fah.

As mentned above, 2014 the channel nceled a proposed show, Flip It Forward, bee s hosts, David and Jason Benham, were volly anti-gay.

David Benham spoke to a nservative talk show September 2012 and said, “Homosexualy and s agenda...
