You all have to watch The Deuce (HBO Series). It's all about making porn in the US.

Am I the only lesbian who wasn’t knocked out by Disobedience?

The L word

There are lots of great lesbian movies and tv shows.


So many that you can’t think of any more current than 15–20 YEARS old?

What the heck are gay films? Brokeback Mountain?


wow. wrong forum.


Seems like a legit question to me.


if the only gay film you know of is brokeback mountain i’m not sure what you’d be doing in the lgbtq forum. unless you genuinely want to learn more, in which case cool.

Movies where lgbt characters and their/our lives are central to the plot. While the world and dc specifically is a very comfortable place to live as lgbt people. When we read newspapers, magazine tv and movies we often missing.

Nearly all advertising is straight people centric. Straight people make up the lions share of the population so this is to be expected. But as a gay many it is nice to see an ad that is actually targeted at me. With rare exception I only find those in lgbt magazines.

Movies and tv have the same problem. Sometimes I just want to watch tv shows or movies where lgbt people are central and straight people have a cameo or are some side story.

Larger audience pool. But from a gay mans perspective still an extreme dearth of movies and many are way too low budget.
