BILLY CRYSTAL WANTS TV TO STOP SHOVG GAY SCEN HIS FACE
The crease the number of visible gay and trans people is sometim treated as a cursy or a e for ncern by crics, but ’s not a surprise. It’s normal. * too much gay on tv *
Ed 2: clearly some of you people n’t be bothered to read the whole thg so I thought I’d slap this right at the top for your lazy ass: I have nothg agast gay people. I have everythg agast gay people who are only on a piece of media for the sake of havg a gay person for diversy pots. But if they’re jt a person who’s entire inty is them beg gay, ’s blatant ignorance, and if anythg, sets diversy and societi standards back as gays ntue to be stereotyped and ed jt as nothg but a way for media to say that they’re “diverse”.
“WE’RE TIRED OF GAY PROPAGANDA”
* too much gay on tv *
It’s gotten to a pot where when I’m watchg a show I’m entirely expectg half the st to be gay (and tend to be right), bee this theme is jt so unbelievably oversaturated at this pot. It’s startg to feel like every other character on TV is gay.
At this pot ’s jt a gross misreprentatn of the actual amount of gays society, and while I certaly am not agast gays, I’m jt so damn tired of seeg them pop up everywhere and have the forced “gay sub-plots”, that jt don’t work. I have nothg agast proper, flhed out characters, who are gay. I take issue wh the abundance of borg characters who only brg one thg to a show; those diversy pots for havg a gay person on the show.
