There's a much better, simpler, more obv explanatn: Vampir have overwhelmed pop culture bee young straight women want to have sex wh gay men.

This exact scenar happened several tim my high school between straight girls and gay guys who eher hadn't figured out they were gay or were still the closet.

Twilight's fantasy is that the geo gay guy n be your boyiend, and for the slightly awkward teenage girls who nsume the books and movi, that's the clcher. Media Platforms Dign TeamTe Blood also sts s shadow on the romance between a young woman and a vampire, but unlike Twilight, which is all subtext and love-that-dare-not-speak-s-name, HBO's cult seri nnects vampirism to homosexualy explicly.

When I was dog my rearch for a The Route of Ice and Salt by José Luis Zárate review, I me across an article that examed the unrlyg gay ton of the film Interview Wh The Vampire.

LGBT them first popped up horror lerature durg the 1790s and 1800s, when gay gothic thors – the lik of Matthew Lewis, William Thomas Beckford and Francis Lathom – wrote the stori as a sublimal exprsn. In a Huffpost terview, Jam Jenks, -owner of Valanurt Books, an pennt prs that specialis the redisvery of fictn that has prevly gone unr the radar, mented that “the tradnal explanatn for the gay/horror nnectn is that was impossible for them to wre openly about gay them back then (or even perhaps exprs them, sce words like ‘gay’ and ‘homosexual’ didn’t exist), so they sublimated them and exprsed them more acceptable forms, g the medium of a transgrsive genre like horror fictn. However, the first tly gay vampire book to be released was Sheridan Le Fanu’s 1872 novella Carla.

Wh that beg said, Carla arguably acted as a template for future gay vampire novels, and even Carla’s future adaptatns migated the problem of the origal – the web seri Carla that buted Augt 2014 was appld for s portrayal of queer relatnships. Gag a loyal cult followg, the show embrac openly gay and genrqueer characters throughout s three seasons. Even the most famo vampire novel of all has s gay subtexts.

When this argument is put to the si though, there is still some gay ntext to be found the book. Though piec of vampire media wh gay them popped up the g years, such as the 1936 movie Dracula’s Dghter, the portrayal of LGBT characters and them were strictly prohibed cema, thanks to the Motn Picture Productn that ran om 1934 to 1968.

Though she isn’t a vampire, Willow is Buffy’s bt iend who ends up g out as gay halfway through the seri.
