Norman Bat, the troubled ma character A&E's Bat Motel, has prented as a cisgenr straight man for the show's five seasons: He’s passnate about sex wh women, puffs up his cht whenever his mother, Norma (Vera Farmiga), emasculat him, and aggrsively rejected gay advanc. After this realizatn, Norman is unable to keep his inti separate and Norman/Norma mov to the 2017, genr exploratn and passnate (albe) dnken gay sex are beyond your typil TV protagonist’s journey.
Y, cln is aplenty: Homoeroticism is rampant on Teen Wolf and openly gay characters n wild on Riverdale, but Bat Motel has done somethg different: It’s emerged om straight ash to be reborn as a full-fledged queer s early seasons, the show was a more nventnal drama, featurg vlent neighbors and strange relativ and a growg mystery.
The show is liverg the most explosive mornizatn of gay horror history to date. Applse to A&E: Jt one year before Bat, the work gave a Duck Dynasty's hio homophobe a ’s tippg the sl towards reprentatn. I, like a lot of gay men, have this my own life, to the pot that Norman and Psycho (1960) have bee a nng joke wh my mom and I.
PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING TO THE GAYLY HELPFUL FUNDRAISER FOR THE TRANSGENDER LAW CENTER
Last summer, I wrote a eply personal piece on Norman and Perks, who was gay, as an important aspect of my own g out and a sort of personal gay in.
Although not wrten lerally as gay, Norman’s quiet, soft-spoken nature, his strong attachment to his mother (once seen as a “e” of homosexualy young men), and his drsg women’s cloth all lent the character a large amount of queer dg—further rerced by his closeted portrayal—and Bat Motel, the A&E seri prequel to Psycho, ntued and expand on this ’ve surely gathered how important Psycho is to me, so I watched the program’s 2013 but wh tert and skepticism—how would this storyle work as a weekly seri, and uld possibly live up to my high expectatns for my beloved Norman?

Edwards is the only gay recurrg character the seri’ n, which is pecially notable bee he’s Black and bee his sexualy is stated so matter of factly. In the end, Norman’s “non” inty matters ls than what he means to the dividual viewer, and Highmore’s dynamic and lovable portrayal add a new chapter to my love for CONSIDER DONATING TO THE GAYLY HELPFUL FUNDRAISER FOR THE TRANSGENDER LAW CENTER. When she told him that her iend was gay Norman rmed her that he was not.
