QUEER EYE OPENS THE MIRACULO GAY WALLET

And y, the morn versn of “Queer Eye” is certaly a step up om the ial “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, ” which aired on Bravo between 2003 and 2007 and featured a st of five whe, gay men who did makeovers exclively for straight men. For example, Episo 1, “Preachg Out Loud, ” sign specialist Bobby Berk discs his personal issu wh the Christian church wh the “hero” (the tle that the Fab Five give to the person they are helpg each week) Noah Hepler, a gay pastor.

Mastream televisn is tragilly prived of nuanced queer characters across the spectm of genr inty, sexualy and every stereotypilly flamboyant gay character, the media needs an troverted lbian love tert, a nonbary babe, a trans person of lor or a ma character who is bisexual, asexual or pansexual. Hontly, I thk ’s more the homophobia than the racism. But the homophobia—they will straight up tap somebody on the shoulr and tell them they n’t do that, if ’s like two women dancg or if they’re stg too close.

”At the time, Jam Whe nied claims of beg homophobic, sistg that they tell all upl the same thg, regardls of sexual orientatn. ”It’s unfortunate that Queer Eye chose to prop up an tablishment wh a ncerng number of accatns of homophobia and racism leveled agast , not to mentn Whe herself, who has been acced of beg one of the ma stigators of the offendg remarks.
