IS THIS SHARK GAY?

Sce Lenny was perceived as gay, many people and gay rights groups were angered about his subplot and how mean-spired and shallow was.

I was today-years-old when I realized an unrlyg theme of Shark Tale uld be g out and gay acceptance. The most recent example of this problematic trend is Dreamworks’ Shark Tale, which has a proment character so metaphorilly drenched sub-meang that ppots wh accintal exactns what is wrong wh the ntemporary Hollywood polil praxis.One of Shark Tale’s ma characters, Lenny (a shark voiced by Jack Black) is so obvly meant to be a doppelganger for a homosexual man that five-year-olds are likely pickg up on well before the scene which Lenny has a garish performance full drag as a dolph (the peaceful, sensive creatur of the film’s world).The characterizatn of Lenny the ntext of the film is important here. What Shark Tale ultimately reprents, and what mak so emently aggravatg, is Hollywood’s static view of homosexualy as somethg that mt be hidn om the public.
