This three-minute waste of time is your typical run-of-the-mill "support gay and race equality" video. And of course it's the most viewed YouTube video today.
I have nothing against gay people or mixed-race relationships, but the fact that "heartwarming" videos like these are still popping up only pushes people into thinking that discrimination against gays and minorities is still an issue. It's just backwards thinking.
I swear, all you need to do to get views on YouTube anymore is make a video with gay and brown people and back it with a piano riff. You'll be trending in hours.
I was expecting a stronger form of liberal redressing.
The interracial couple and older couple were not part of the agenda. Same with the religious men (seemed like only a friendship), the white woman & Indian woman (again, friendship), and the siblings weren't part of the crusade I was expecting to see.
Only 2 of the pairings were obvious LGBT couples, the 2 black men and the 2 white women. Surprisingly, we didn't see a couple where Jack dressed up as Jill, and Jill dressed up as Jack.
It's very possible they have run out of material and have hit a point they need to integrate regular couples in their agenda, or simply friendship among people.

Now that you mention it, yeah, I'm very surprised we didn't see any cross-dressers or trannys. Maybe they found it hard to find one. Either that or they knew that'd be pushing an agenda many have (thankfully) not accepted.
