While TV from any country shouldn't necessarily be taken as the be-all-end-all of the mannerisms of the people of that country, one can glean some useful information from shows that are intended to give useful information. QE is more or less a self-help program. Take X guy and make his life better somehow...new hair, new clothes, whatever. The gay hosts part of it is just a selling point. There wouldn't be nearly as much hoopla about the show if it was five straight guys, and chances are they'd be pegged as gay anyway if they were doing this kind of show. If anything, this show bolsters the stereotype that gay men have much better fashion and personal aesthetic sense than straight guys do.
