KEV MAXEN BE FIRST MALE ACH A US MEN’S PROFSNAL SPORTS LEAGUE TO PUBLICLY E OUT AS GAY

* gay got characters *

But world where Bnei has jt joed the list of pariah natns that have the ath penalty for male homosexualy, a queer character’s murr might reasonably be argued to rry more ntemporary weight and ronance. Of urse, one thg to keep md is that our morn lexin of sexualy wouldn't have been translated to the world of Game of Thron, so intifitn via labels like "gay" and "lbian" wasn't available to the characters. What plac Loras at the bottom of the list is the fact that his whole character is fed by harmful gay stereotyp, pecially nsirg he (and Renly) were the first LGBTQ+ characters Game of Thron we were troduced to.

As a stark ntrast of gay reprentatn to Loras, Renly serv to portray a very different LGBTQ+ experience for the viewers to potentially relate to on Game on Thron. However, their treatment of one of the most proment among the few relatnships ultimately falls to the trope known as “bury your gays, ” where homosexual characters are quickly killed off and removed om a seri predomantly focsed on heterosexual characters.

The homosexual relatnship between Renly Baratheon and Loras Tyrell did not ultimately transcend the social stigma wh the world of Game of Thron as fans might have hoped, as Renly was killed only a season after their relatnship began. While Game of Thron certaly perpetuated the “bury your gays” trope also serv as an example of the how wrers are nscly workg to subvert the trope by givg the last openly bisexual character, Yara Greyjoy, addnal plot armor where seems she is able to slip out of ath’s jaws more than once.

Inct is mon. Dragons le the ski. But gay men are unacceptable? Here's a look at the anchise's problematic history wh LGBTQ reprentatn. * gay got characters *

The “bury your gays” trope is a cliche Hollywood films and televisn alike where LGBT characters seem to be more expendible than their straight peers and typilly do not fd their “happily ever after” at the story’s ncln. ” However, this is not to say that gay characters should not be exempt om tragedy, but stead is about there beg a diverse ensemble of charters who are reprentative of the real world. Bonnie Dow explas how, “homosexual characters are rarely shown their own muni, hom or same-sex romantic relatnships, but are picted terms of their place the liv of heterosexuals.

As a rult of disgntled LGBT fans speakg out agast the trope, a new phenomena has found s way to the televisn landspe lled “prerve your gays” where seems screen wrers have started to make a nsc effort to keep gay characters on the screen. While the show nners have never explicly mented on the #buryyourgays fan rponse, seems as though Yara’s character has benefted om good fortune more than a time or two sce the hashtag went viral 2016. Game of Thron is not entirely reprehensible s treatment of homosexual characters, but do perpetuate some harmful narrative trop wh ltle the way of reurse.

For a fantasy seri so liberal s pictn of sexualy, we might have expected better reprentatn; however, is rehg to see a bisexual character who is not pletely handcuffed by a worn out, homophobic trope.
