SUPERMAN AND LOIS JT GOT GAY…BUT NOT THE WAY WE WERE HOPG FOR
11 to support lbian, gay, bisexual and transgenr newt versn of Superman was released on Monday, to ci wh Natnal Comg Out Day the Uned Stat. And that’s ironic bee the moment Elsass as Jon Kent ma his but the very first episo, fans were quick to theorize he was likely gog to be “the gay one”, and that was long before the mors of Jon beg bisexual the ic books appeared onle.
Except that a show that has featured a powerful reprentatn of alholism, anxiety, and prsn, a misrriage storyle, and some nuanced tak on a stgglg lol enomy —where the Kents’ olst iends are a Latx fay, and their clost nfidants all thgs supernatural are a Black fay, felt like a gapg hole realy that this somewhat diverse muny didn’t even have a token gay the background. One simple way to make some sort of progrs toward beg more clive on Superman and Lois would be to make one of Lois and Clark’s kids gay (or bisexual).
It uld be such a great way to brg the boys together, too, which we rarely see om brothers on TV when one of them is gay. Given that Jon is a ic character and Jordan is not, seems more likely that they would take this creative choice wh Jordan, but image if we were to get a gay Superboy.
