Trading Spouses

Fox has a show called Trading Spouses and ABC has a similar show called Wife Swap. The producers find the two most polar opposite families in existence and swap the moms for around 2 weeks. The result is always dramatic and entertaining. One of the most memorable episodes of Trading Spouses features the Perrin family, whose mother is a God Warrior.

Trading Spouses featured a lesbian couple who swapped spouses with a sarcastic and more conservative family. This is the only time either show has featured a gay or lesbian couple (email me if I'm missing one). I wonder why they haven't tried a "daddy" swap with a gay couple? Are they afraid the daddies would just have sex with each other? That might be a valid concern.
