Storyline

Kwame is seventeen; sexy and unswervingly straight with his hormones raging like a forest fire. But there's no room in his packed schedule to feed the flames. His best mate's in love with his dad - his gay dad has just divorced his husband and plunged into a mid-life attack of 'adultescence', buying a skate-park and becoming the original bitch on wheels. The family counselor has run off with his girlfriend's nouveau rich millionaire father, and his bitch/angel girlfriend is hanging out with a pair of sexy 'lippy lesbians'. It ain't easy being straight in the 21st century - but hey, someone's got to do it...

User Reviews

Love This Show!

I was fortunate enough to see the short film this was based on: "Heterosexuality". Then, an aquaintence gave me a VHS tape to keep, and that was "Metrosexuality". I loved sitting before the t.v. screen, watching the shenanigans of the characters weaving in and out of conflicts, the daily goings-on of life as a gay/lesbian/straight/parent/whatever person displayed humorously for my enjoyment. It only ran for several episodes, but it's superior to my tastes, and I hope it'll be for anyone who'll be fortunate enough to watch this.
