IAN IS GAY

As someone born on the cp of the lennial/Gen Z divi, I’m que nostalgic for that then, there’s the gay reprentatn that might be silly to try and unpack the social polics of a rom- chick flick.

IAN IS GAY

I n’t help but analyze how gay people are portrayed the as great as virtually every other aspect of Mean Girls is, that’s the one area that leav somethg to be, the other day, I read a great piece by another queer wrer named Till Kal, which he discs how ’s great to have a posive (i.

E., non-tragic) reprentatn of a gay character.

However, I agree wh his terpretatn that Damian was pretty much a walkg has a stereotypil gay male manner of speech, he passnately sgs Christa Aguilera songs, and he prefers beg iends wh girls rather than guys.

JANIS IAN OM “MEAN GIRLS” SHOULD HAVE BEEN GAY

It’s as if the ia of a gay boy jt beg himself is meant to be funny. I highly remend readg Till’s article for got me thkg about another aspect of the movie, somethg that has trated me for didn’t they also make Janis Ian gay?

Before the protagonist Cady shows up, her only iend is, I unrstand that n be mon for a gay man and a straight woman to be bt iends. But realistilly, I don’t thk that’s the se the start of her hman year, Janis prumably had no iends bee of the gay mors about her. One uld easily assume that Damian, who appears to have no iends except Janis (and later Cady), unrstood what she was gog through, beg a lonely gay outst himself, and beiend film tak place two years later, durg their junr year.

When troducg Damian to Cady, Janis says he’s “too gay to functn. ”While this uld be a se of Damian tellg Janis, “Okay, I’ll let you make fun of my gayns bee you’re my iend, ” I n’t really picture a straight girl dog this.

As a lbian myself, I tease my queer iends about beg gay all the time. Specifilly, I often e the phrase “too gay to functn. ”Sappho was the OG “too gay to functn.

”To me, Janis teasg Damian about how gay he is seems like somethg that one gay btie would do to ’s jt me, but if a straight iend of me teased me about my gayns that often, I would start to spect at least a ltle b of homophobia unr the surface.

Speakg of homophobia, Janis suffers om this kd of prejudice throughout the film’s plot centers around new girl Cady pretendg to be iends wh Rega and her croni so she n spy on them and report back to Janis and Damian.

Not only has Janis gel-sculpted her hair back, but she and Damian are wearg matchg tuxedos that are purple, a lor that has historilly been associated wh homosexualy. (Remember the kerfuffle about the Teletubbi bee people thought the purple one was gay?

)She’s gog to the dance wh a gay man as her date. ” That she wasn’t actually gay, she was jt “alternative” or a “tomboy.
