Wow, that doesn't surprise me though. Sure seems to be a divisive and toxic move to make toward but I'm sure she'll get a small following patting her on the back for it.

I admit to being a romance movie junkie, and I've been pleasantly surprised that Hallmark has been slowly getting more inclusive recently, with same gender romance, interracial couples, and mature love as well, albeit mostly in supporting characters, but they are paving the way toward a more fully inclusive idea of romance.

I've also been pleasantly surprised that many of the holiday themed movies are more inclusive with mixed faiths and families featured seem to be celebrating in a more secular way. Smart of them to advance with the times.

Of course the movies are so predictable and sappy, but there are times when I just like to watch something mindless with a happy ending. I know there's going to be a lot of hot chocolate, snowball fights, throwing flour at each other while making cookies, etc. I can count on no violence, politics, hatred and divisiveness, so it's a vacation away from the real world, but I'm happy to see Hallmark moving toward more inclusiveness - and sad to know there are people who feel the need to make movies that refuse to acknowledge same sex romance - keeping the audience from progressing into the happier progressiveness.
