We really have to get away from this self-defeating ideological stuff that seems to pervade even into areas non-political.
Australia may be a victim to some extent of PC thinking but when it is all said and done we really are a very conservative nation. Even our supposed 'left wing' (ALP) adheres more to the monetarist style with some exceptions, and bows in the main to the interests of big business.
Bruno makes fun of the stereotypes that the ultra-conservatives casts over homesexuality. The only set that might not get it would be of the red-neck variety who may not see the irony.
