) And Kate McKnon, playg a so-lled Weird Barbie who experienced an extreme haircut and makeover at the hands of an experimental child, never actually answers the qutn anybody would have upon seeg her gay-ass haircut and knowg the actor’s sexualy.

The movie “She’s The Man” me out 2006, a very ntroversial time for the reprentatn of homosexualy movi that were nsumed by a large dience.
Like any social movement, the gay rights movement evolved stag, and society n only adapt to new ncepts so fast. While “She’s The Man” appears to not fold to the classic stcture of a “chick flick”, the movie ntas the typil genr stereotyp and homophobic nstcts that are perpetuated all forms of popular culture.

Vla’s bt iend, Pl, exemplifi the stereotyp that surround homosexuals, particularly mal. “The notn that gay dividuals posss characteristics that vlate tradnal genr rol n be traced back at least to Frd’s “genr versn theory”, acrdg to which gay men are more siar to heterosexual femal than they are to heterosexual mal, whereas lbians are more siar to heterosexual mal than to heterosexual femal” (Blashhill, Powlishta 2009).
When readg a plot summary of the movie, Pl is scribed as Vla’s “gay bt iend”, but never the film is Pl’s sexual preference disclosed, nor is he seen participatg a homosexual relatnship. The trope of “pet homosexual” is very popular movi meant for a teen to young adult female dience.

A “pet homosexual” exist to add funny mannerisms and cheap lghs to movi that otherwise nta an all-straight st. The pet homosexual is only there to serve the heterosexual female protagonist, and has very ltle substance other than their stereotypilly flamboyant way of behavg. Although the movie do not participate any blatant homophobic dialogue, Pl’s character nsists of only homosexual stereotyp and he is only there to serve as the “pet homosexual” or “gay bt iend”.
This perpetuat a generalized archetype of gay mal that shap the view of homosexuals wh society. There is a great al of unrlyg homophobia that is part of this kd of character. Wh the “old man” genr role homophobia, both unrlyg and blatant.
Due to De havg shared characteristics wh the “old man”, there is que a b of unrlyg homophobia this film. Acrdg to Miltone and Meyer, “masculy has to reassert self agast the tw threats of femizatn and homosexualizatn and prove s heterosexualy” (122).
