When asked whether he’d class Dorian as a “gay character” who perhaps reli too heavily on stereotyp, or stead as a more nuanced “character who happens to be gay”, Gair shar his view that ’s not always as easy a distctn as many assume. “What nstut a gay stereotype is a difficult subject, ” Gair m. “Certaly there’s a way for stereotyp to be harmful, no qutn, but I’ve never found agreement even wh the gay muny as to what a ‘proper’ reprentatn of a gay character should be.
