href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/reality-tv\/i-kissed-a-boy-dannii-minogue-newsupdate\/\">groundbreaking<\/a>, and hoped that it would keep \u201cthe door open for possibilities, all sorts for the entire community\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She continued: \u201cI think that representation is vital to not only how people see themselves, but how they\u2019re seen within a community of people and by their friends and family and how those relationships, you know, evolve by the visibility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u201cI think it\u2019s going to be, unfortunately, groundbreaking and probably shocking to a lot of people to see two boys kiss on TV.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">\u201cHopefully we get to a point where that is history and it\u2019s not like that
