I thought that was pretty for some reason i read jim reys voice om liar liarI hate g this oneRandy_Marsh 8 years ago#7The pen is bluePraise the sun \ [T] /nnulda 8 years ago#8I don't know why s a topic is nothg wrong wh beg gay, but the OP seems to fend his heterosexualy rather do you want to experience a game? However, reprentatn and visibily of lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr and queer (LGBTQ) muni is currently beg ntted wh the Uned Kgdom. The word ‘homophobia’ has largely been replaced by the more accurate term ‘heterosexism’ (Hill, 2016).
A total of 13, 289 hate crim targetg LGBTQ muni were rerd the year 2017–2018, wh 11, 638 targetg lbian, gay and bisexual people and 1, 651 cints targetg transgenr people (Home Office, 2018). Dpe the different genre and target dience, the Grand Theft Auto seri falls to the trap of relyg upon stereotypilly homophobic, biphobic and transphobic nstctns of LGBTQ muni for edic and entertament value. One of the key stereotyp that are drawn upon throughout the game seri is reprentg gay men as effemate, or ‘mp’.
Wh the ‘Grand Theft Auto: IV’ (Rockstar Gam, 2008) ludodrome, there are a number of non-playable pestrian characters who are implied to be gay through the dialogue wh the game. The typ of reprentatn of gay men feed to accurate stereotyp that all gay men love fashn, mils and prent themselv more stereotypilly feme ways (Griffo, 2014). However, some of the dialogue is much more explicly homophobic.
GAY PRI TO GTA 5 AT LAST
* can you be gay in grand theft auto 5 *
In this sense, the game seri not only draws upon the e of puns and stereotyp for edic effect, there is also a darker, more explicly homophobic tone to the game. Another major theme wh the reprentatn of gay men wh the game is the sexualisatn of homosexualy, rcg a nuanced inty and reprentg more simplistilly as a sex practice. Historilly, gay men have been characterised as promiscuo (Davi, Pollard, & Archer, 2006) and this was perpetuated socially throughout the 1980s and 1990s durg the AIDs epimic, which was termed ‘the gay plague’ (Strematter, 2008).
ARE GAY RELATNSHIPS NFIRMED?

Whilst none of the police officers explicly exprs their homosexualy, the dialogue is tend to imply that they are. However, dog so, gay inti are rced to a sexual practice, thereby negatg LGBTQ people's existence outsi of sex.
Dpe the genr of the people om whom he purchased sex not beg mentned, is also noted that several referenc are ma throughout the game that imply he is homosexual. As discsed prevly, the reliance upon sexual stereotyp of gay men is overly simplistic and rctive of gay inti.
IS THE GAY BAR THIS GAME AND ARE THERE GAY CHARACTERS?
s 2022 and rockstar has already apologized for their blatantly racist "satire." so 's time to make up for that horrible past. they should add more reprentative ain characters or an optn to make a transgenr/ openly gay character the onle the story. i thk that would brg GTA Onle to the general public and sell a lot more pi * can you be gay in grand theft auto 5 *
This also feeds to domant stereotyp of gay men's volvement sex work. Lked directly to stereotyp that portray gay men as promiscuo, assumptns are often ma about gay men's volvement wh sex work, rtg, and this is monly associated wh the transmissn of HIV.

The trop are historilly ground wh the beliefs of ‘sexual perversn’ associated wh homosexualy (Panfil, 2017).
The reprentatn of gay men as ‘sexually perverted’ or ‘sexually crimal’ is also apparent ‘Grand Theft Auto: Vice Cy’ (Rockstar Gam, 2002) which two members of the ‘Whe Stallnz Gang’, a homosexual gang, threaten to rape two other characters.
This dialogue and scene draw upon historic stereotyp of gay men as ‘sexual predators’ (Kner, 2016). Reprentg gay men this way rerc negative stereotyp of gay men and also ntribut to the humanisatn of LGBTQ muni. Featur of the game are also more explicly homophobic.
