KEY & PEELE'S MARRIAGE EQUALY SKETCH IMAG A DIFFERENT KD OF GAY PANIC

The 2014 Key & Peele sketch “Gay Weddg Advice” centers around the Johnsons, a black fay preparg for a relative’s upg gay weddg. While pokg fun at an ignorant hoehold’s well-tentned attempts to support the marriage of a gay relative, the sketch skillfully criqu both the nuclear fay stcture and the popular stereotyp associated wh queer inty. “Gay Weddg Advice” begs wh Larry Johnson, played by Jordan Peele, leadg a Johnson fay Q&A.

Throughout the urse of the Q&A, the Johnson fay’s qutns bee creasgly obte, and the spectator nnot help but empathize wh the Gary as only gay person the room.

One might thk that someone who was repulsed by the ia of a queer fay, as so many of the Johnsons are, would also reil at gay entertament.

But “Gay Weddg Advice” driv home a fer pot:that those who nsume queer culture wh pleasure n still be horribly tolerant. Before he officially begs the advice ssn, Gary succctly clarifi, “I jt wanted to say, basilly, that a gay weddg is jt like straight weddg.
