Phil Robertson Duck Dynasty redneck Phil Robertson has been described as “vile” and “extreme” after comparing gay sex to bestiality. Robertson is in the popular US-based reality show about a family that has made a fortune from its duck hunting products. It screens on TV2 in New Zealand. He’s told GQ “It seems like, to me, a vagina - as a man - would be more desirable than a man’s anus. That’s just me. I’m just thinking: There’s more there! She’s got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I’m saying? But hey, sin: It’s not logical, my man. It’s just not logical.” He later adds: “Start with homosexual behaviour and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men.” Robertson then goes on to quote the Bible. American glbti advocacy group GLAAD calls the statements “some of the vilest and most extreme” ever uttered against LGBT people in a mainstream publication. They say the quotes are “littered with outdated stereotypes and blatant misinformation."UPDATE: Robertson has since been suspended from Duck Dynasty, indefinitely.
