I was flipping through some of my old Bloom County collections tonight, and thought I'd upload one of my favorite running gags: Micheal Binkley's Anxiety Closet.

	Didn't "For Better or For Worse" stray into this territory, and also was the first to deal with a character being gay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I mean sex itself. I don't think they ever showed the character kissing a boyfriend in FBOW, did they? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't think so, it was considering daring enough in the US for a comic strip character to actually say he was gay in the first place. Lynne Johnson discusses the storyline here. Some interesting comments, if (as in much of FBoFW) it comes across in a slightly... cloying earnest manner. (Reply to this) (Parent)
