Do you think they overreacted about the gay comment from Meredith?


I don't understand why they got so upset. I mean, she obviously was only trying to say that gay people have it harder in society than straight people, which is true. Obviously she was saying it in the wrong way because she was nervous but they should of known that she wasn't trying to hate on gays.

Maybe if she had just shut up after it was so apparent she had offended everyone at the table...but she just kept digging herself deeper. The Meredith character wasn't very believable. I had trouble believing anyone with her background could be so clueless in a social situation like that.
