IS JUGHEAD GAY?
Many longtime rears d him as gay, but ic wrer Chip Zdarsky had other ias for him.
A boy explas that the spensn of one of school’s few gay stunts has limed his datg potential. The show played homosexualy and asexualy for lghs. John Rter’s Jack Tripper was a young chef who pretend he was gay so his pdish landlord would allow him to share an apartment wh two female iends.
But even back then, the post-Stonewall days of the gay liberatn movement, homosexualy was part of the public nscns. Playwright, director and “Queer as Folk” staff wrer, Brad Fraser, feels gay reprentatn isn’t really an issue anymore, and wonrs aloud whether the absence of sexualy is a taboo.
