That Gay Episo: 'Night Court' Reveals How The Patriarchy Fuels Homophobia. Bee g out is always a major thg, ss gravate towards that moment when time to do their gay episo. Ellen’s landmark g out episo picted the ial vertigo of first acknowledgg your gayns, Wgs took a different route seven years earlier.

But as anyone that’s e out knows, that sh of self-aware phoria wh a chaser of stggle, and that’s the se  Wgs’ first gay episo.

While workg on That Gay Episo, I’ve learned that the bt gay episos e om gay wrers. The Goln Girls, Ellen, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and now Wgs, are all episos om gay wrers that give their gay characters digny and posn them on the moral high ground pared to whoever the ma st is eakg out.

Roy starts out the episo hella pumped bee his son is the papers for his burgeong football prows (which is the gayt way I n thk of puttg , bee my specialty is ss and not sports talk). So, let’s h the pse button on the gay stuff for a sec. Is gay and we get a g out episo and not a s versn of Law & Orr: SVU.

This level of meddlg om a straight adult a gay teen’s life is… I give a pass bee this is a ’90s s episo that has to reach a ncln 22 mut. Wgs n go for this over-the-top homophobic reactn bee Roy is the show’s villa.
