IS KEV MCRTHY A GAY MAN? BGRAPHY AND FACTS

No, there was never too … pretty much, they jt knew was part of the pch and there was never too much ph-back like, “There’s too much gay material. ” So was more of a basketball tonnage issue than gay.

In the past, seems like there’s been a pretty big gulf between the sports muny and the gay muny, and now we’re at the pot where there are openly gay athlet the major leagu. It is funny — I thk some people have said, “It’s dumb that they’re playg this gay guy as not knowg sports and not likg sports, ” but there is this huge gap between homosexualy and profsnal sports. Not to get stereotypil aga, but I’m a gay man who lov “Digng Women.

‘THE MCCARTHYS’ CENTERS ON GAY SON OF SPORTS-MAD BOSTON FAY

The patriarch, high-school basketball ach Arthur McCarthy (Jack McGee), hir his gay son Ronny (Tyler Rter) to be his assistant ach after the prev occupant of the job unexpectedly di.

Arthur’s wife, Majorie (Lrie Metlf), is still sad over the ncellatn of The Closer and watch The Good Wife wh Ronny, bee Ronny is gay, you see, and — like a woman, I gus we’re supposed to thk?

THE VOICE OF CHICAGO'S GAY, LESBIAN, BI, TRANS AND QUEER COMMUNITY SINCE 1985

”) The McCarthys driv home how unimagative many tradnal ss are about people, pecially when they’re tryg to sum up what men and women and straights and gays are “like. Straight guys love sports and hate plays and art of any kd, and trospectn, and showg feelgs; women like shows about women and are eager to please; gay men aren’t terted sports — they’d rather watch The Sound of Mic, etc. When Ronny reveals that he’s land a job as a guidance unselor at a high school Province, Rho Island, Marjorie exclaims, “Ronny … you’re still gay?

” then throws him a party to prove how gay-acceptg their Boston neighborhood n be. In the party scene (mom proclaims the room “a gay bar” filled wh “men who love men”) we’re treated to one of the show’s rare astute jok: Ronny’s mom has ved the only other gay people she knows, regardls of whether he’ll have anythg else mon wh Ronny.

Then Mom troduc a young, stocky, beard redhead — sort of a Zach Galifianakis type; we’re seeg a lot of those on TV this season — and we thk for a moment that we’re gog to meet a gay character who don’t F the Dcriptn, a bear who’s to sports, maybe, but no: Turns out the guy isn’t actually gay, but me to the party anyway. The show tak pas to tablish that this is a tightly kn fay whose members all live a one-square-block area, but that don’t expla how Ronny uld be a young gay profsnal livg a cy of more than 600, 000 people and feel that he had a better chance of meetg a nice guy if he moved to Province, a cy of 170, 000 — unls the ma issue is the ignorance of his fay, which is a topic the show don’t really get to, except as a way to set up more weirdly out-of-date jok. ” The other moment is the “gay bar” scene: The church sger rms Ronny that he’s “a non-practicg homosexual” bee “the church says ’s okay to have gay sir as long as you don’t act on them.
