[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t believe it’s 2022 and we still need to analyze every gay or possibly gay character to determine if their existence is realistic and ok or superfluous and done for an agenda. Gay people exist. Many, many more than you think. Surprise![/quote] I have several LGBTQ friends and family members. That said, they are less than 5% of the people I know. So yes, having 2 gay main characters (that aren’t a couple) seems to be an agenda, not representation. They did plant the seed early in season 1 with Will was being teased for being gay. I don’t mind - but it is obviously an agenda. [/quote] OMG stop watching if you can't handle having TWO gay characters on a show [/quote] Can you read? I don’t care, but it’s obviously an agenda. FWIW, one of my brothers is gay and be is trans. They are in their 50s. Being gay in the 1980s was SCARY. As in beat them to death scary. No one would casually be “out” in Indiana. They would be in super denial. Robin and Harrington aren’t that close when she discloses, which would never happen. The way Will is playing it is more spot on based on my ACTUAL experience watching my siblings. [/quote] I was alive in the 80s, too, so you don't need to lecture me as if you're the only one who knew what it was like. People complaining about TWO gay characters on a TV show have an easy way to prevent themselves the displeasure of that experience.[/quote] Will explain further since you’re either dim or being deliberately obtuse. [b]It’s not just one show, it’s every recent show. New kids movies must have the obligatory gay trope. It’s trite. Predictable.[/b] [/quote] This. Whatever else it may be it is becoming very lazy and manipulative storytelling.[/quote] It's not.[/quote]
