But I try mightily to avoid being exposed to today's culture.  So I don't watch Jimmy Kimmel or Mike & Molly.  And apparently that's a good thing.

GLAAD has called out CBS for an transphobic scene in Mike & Molly.  It's just not cool, dudes -- By dudes, I refer to the actor, the producer, the director, and the writers...any of whom could have stood up and said, loudly,

NO!!!

    The offensive scene came within the first few minutes of the February 11 episode entitled "The Princess and the Troll." In the scene, the show's main character Mike is talking with his police partner and best friend Carl about Carl's checkered romantic past of picking up downtrodden women off the street:
