Snl gay couple baby
Saturday Night Live recently aired a sketch where Jon Hamm and Bowen Yang played gay parents who recently took in a baby as other cast members demanded to realize where they got it from. Is SNL’s willingness to question this, as well as mock personal pronouns, a sign that they’re abandoning wokeness? Or is it just an attempt by SNL to normalize surrogacy? Glenn and Stu debate.

GLENN: It's amazing.
STU: It's funny. It's actually a funny sketch.
GLENN: Very funny. So is this a sketch that is opening up comedy to do things?
Is this a sketch about a homosexual couple being able to -- the -- how do I say this?
Is this a sketch that shows us that things are changing. And that political correctness is going away.
Or is this a way to mainstream lgbtq+ couples having a child and adopting a baby? That's the argument, that I've read.

When it comes to intergenerational conflict, you never hear too much about Gen Z having a hard time with Generation X or the silent generation having beef with the baby boomers. However, there seems to be some problem where baby boomers and millennials just can’t obtain on the identical page.
Maybe it’s because millennials were raised during the technological revolution and own to help their boomer parents log into Netflix, while the grandparents earn frustrated when their adult children don't know how to do basic homemaking and maintenance tasks. There’s also a political divide: Millennials are a solid liberal voting bloc, whereas boomers are the target demographic for Fox News. Both generations also have differing views on parenting, with boomers favoring an authoritative style over the millennials' gentler approach, which leads to a ton of conflict within families.
A Redditor recently asked Xennials, older millennials, and younger Gen Xers born between 1977 and 1983 to split some quirks of their boomer parents, and they created a fun list A recent Saturday Night Live skit involving two gay parents has sparked delight from conservatives on social media, with public figures such as Charlie Kirk and Minnesota Representative Walter Hudson responding to it online. While segments on the comedy production can be directed and poke fun at people on all sides of the political spectrum, including Democrats, SNL generally tilts to the left. The present has often been considered to be mocking conservatives, MAGA and people on the right, in sketches that poke fun at President Donald Trump and his supporters, which has long drawn the ire of these groups online. A clip of the sketch was shared on X, formerly Twitter, and has been viewed 2.7 million times so far. It features Jon Hamm and Bowen Yang as gay parents who are asked by Heidi Gardner: "Oh my gosh, who's baby is that?" An indignant Hamm and Yang respond, "excuse me" and "you are not allowed to talk fond of that," when asked where the baby had come from. It is then revealed that the night before, the pair had not had the baby. "People consider they can ask gay people anything, it's not OK," Hamn says in the skit. "What do you want us to say, that For years, asking questions about lgbtq+ adoption, surrogacy, or the commodification of children got you labeled a bigot. The script was simple: love is love, families enter in all forms, stop being so judgmental. But it appears the rhetoric has worn thin. Now, even SNL, a illustrate that’s rarely been brave in recent years, is giving audiences permission to laugh at the madness. “You went to a rave called Bulge Dungeon last night,” one friend says during the skit. “And now you have…a baby?” The gay couple avoids every sincere question with sarcasm, emotional manipulation, and nonsensical woke language. “Wait, but, uh…how?” one friend asks. The gay men recoil: “I’m sorry, but gay people can’t have a baby?” The group presses gently: Where did the baby enter from? Who’s the mother? The responses spiral from defensive to downright deranged. “Between the two of us, I’m more emotional and I like shopping,” one says. “So, me, I think.” The other adds, “I have long hair, and he’s an alcoholic. So I guess it’s, love, two moms, I guess.” What unfolds is a takedown of the entire “progressive parenting” myth, a commentary
