‘GAME OF THRON’: SO JOFEY HAT GAYS, ON TOP OF EVERYTHG ELSE

I hate to troduce the possibily that he is reprentative of the typil morn day, self-loathg homosexual polician that seems to permeate today's polil arena wh illogil gay bashg polici and gay cur, but his behavr sure seems nsistent wh those morn day policians. To be clear, I mean no offense to the gay muny, so I apologize advance if I am off base here.

'GAME OF THRON': SO JOFEY HAT GAYS, ON TOP OF EVERYTHG ELSE

I thk a lot of Jofey's anger om his supprsn of his natural homosexual sir.

HOE OF THE DRAGON INTRODUCED (AND PROMPTLY KILLED) A GAY CHARACTER

Jofey says he is nsirg makg homosexualy punishable by ath.

It was all, of urse, somethg of a set-up: This week, after agreeg to marry her gay Laenor Velaryon, Prcs Rhaenyra curs Criston’s fury by refg to n away wh him; on the eve of her weddg, Criston vlently kills Laenor’s lover, Jofey Lonmouth, moments after Jofey not-so-discreetly approached Criston about how both of them uld rema lovers to the rpective almost-newlyweds.

Later, when he perceived Jofey as tntg him about his sexual relatnship wh Rhaenyra, that was apparently the fal straw to btally kill a gay man, whose bleedg-out, mutilated rpse we’re then treated to.

It’s the epome of toxic masculy taken to a vlent, homophobic extreme.

Whatever HotD has store down the le, I’m disappoted by the grotque vlence felt pelled to flict on one of the show’s first gay characters, all bee some straight man was particularly secure about his masculy one night. But as we learned on Sunday’s “Game of Thron, ” he’s also a ragg homophobe, who has toyed wh the ia of makg gay sex punishable by ath.
