(That clud Nasir & Agron-- a fan favore gay uple who fied the odds and got a happy endg a world where ccifixns and other horrific character aths were the norm. )Unfortunately, a lot of the goodwill Starz earned wh gay dienc via Spartac may have been squanred wh the furiatg Da Vci's Demons, a show that mted the rdal s of takg one of history's most important gay figur – Leonardo Da Vci – and makg him effectively, is Starz' early 18th Century pirate seri Black Sails — now midway through s send season — another Spartac... The show is geo to look at and actn-packed, but over the first season and a half there didn't seem to be a lot there specifilly for gay (male) dienc.
But gay men at least seemed pretty much absent om the nvas. *** MAJOR SPOILER ALERT ***Fans of the show may wish to watch this week's Black Sails episo before gog to the next page as a major plot pot is 'd heard mors that the show would be troducg a gay male character, but we didn't really expect to be the seri lead.

Still, his beg gay is now a major plot pot and helps to rm the character's actns gog all the way back to the start of the seri. Apparently last night's big gay reveal was planned om the show's Sails is a loose prequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island.
Not that wasn't tertg to beg wh -- gay elements or not, 's a pretty entertag show. Miranda Barlow is married to a gay man 1700s London. Opn - Gay agenda the only flaw this amazg seri.
Season 2 jt had me feelg like Hollywood wasn't even botherg to hi their gay agenda this one. Don't get me wrong - I do not md a character beg gay, but please try to keep somewhat realistic.
TUMBLR SHPOST NVC MANY THAT PIRAT OF THE CARIBBEAN HAD GAY PIRATE DIVORCE
In Black Sails, by my unt 4/9 ma characters are gay/bi - Flt, Max, Eleanor, Anne - not untg supportg characters. Then season 2, they started htg that Anne Bonny is gay too. The only reason that bothered me at all is bee Anne Bonny is historilly known to be straight, so was jt Hollywood turng another character gay for no reason.
AT THE SAME TIME as Anne Bonny's g out, Flt is gettg this myster backstory which fally ends a big twist - yep you gused , Flt is gay too. At this pot I was jt kd of turned off by the show, sce lerally the entire season seemed to jt be about homosexualy.

When Vane surprise attacked Flt right after the big gay reveal, I half expected them to end up rollg around on the ground kissg. It was almost ftg that the fale end Flt jt gettg shuttled off to be wh his lover at the end, bee the seri seemed to re more about tellg a gay romance story than did anythg else.
The show explor – not explos – lbian, gay and polyamoro relatnships explos.
All too often we’ve been ma to subsist on subtextual scraps, “first gay characters” major properti prented out-of-foc the background, much ado about “bromance, ” or creativ statg after the fact that they were tellg a queer love story all along—we jt didn’t get to see affirmed or spoken. The sheer levels of astonishment also monstrate how equently we’ve been burned before, ma to settle for cmbs or to suffer wh buried gays or an assertn, as some historians are wont to do, that people who appear very much love are jt extremely good iends.

Never gonna get over this — puck ? gay pirate (@henleyspuck) March 24, 2022 It’s te that LGBTQIA+ reprentatn on televisn has grown by leaps and bounds recent years. “I nnot BELIEVE how soon you people fot that jack sparrow is lerally nonilly gay divorced, ” reads the end of a Tumblr post by er everythgispirat.
For the rerd, Jack Sparrow is not nonilly gay divorced. What is particularly funny, though, is the choice to make Jack Sparrow and Hector Barbossa “gay divorced, ” which is s own si joke when to ship dynamics across Tumblr. “Fans” of the show on social media have plaed this is “gay propaganda” and “isn’t what we signed up for” they should be dog is praisg Black Sails for playg such a blr.
