Avengers: Endgame featur Marvel's first openly gay character, but may not be the equal reprentatn that LGBTQ fans were hopg for. * gay avengers endgame *
But as Avengers: Endgame reflectns ntue to e out, there is headle after headle about Marvel's first openly gay character. After some light vtigatn, turns out that the first openly gay character is a glorified meo by director Joe Rso. The First Openly Gay Character qutn is a support group wh Capta Ameri after The Snap.
Then Capta Ameri tells him that 's brave to keep gog on dat ~wh other men~ and then the scene is be clear, I'm not tryg to say that Joe Rso's portrayal of a grievg gay man was rrect or offensive, though 's non that all gay men are fans of the Yanke, not the Mets.
Wh that beg said, cludg a gay person a peripheral role isn't an acplishment as much as s payg attentn to every day life. Givg a sile character the moniker of "gay" isn't blazg a trail for LGBT cln as much as s hopg s dience is ignorant enough to nflate the monplace wh somethg fact that an average gay man a Marvel movie mak news as newsworthy shouldn't be surprisg.

It's the same approach Disney took by makg LeFou gay Bety and the Beast and sayg he was gog to have a "gay moment" when realy he jt very yly longed for Gaston. "We've done four of the films and was credibly important to to have a gay character reprented somewhere one of the four movi. " But te reprentatn isn't a BINGO rd wh an empty slot that says "throw a gay here!
" If anythg, stashg a gay man the narrative so that Capta Ameri n pat him on the head and tell him how brave he is only rerc the ia that LGBT people should feel lucky to be clud at ntent is imported om youTube. I would have preferred that the Rso Brothers, Disney, and the Marvel Universe ntued on their journey of creatg a good universe wh a pellg superhero narrative and left the wanton attempt of cludg a gay character on the cuttg room floor.
But when you make a pot to create a gay character, have him do the absolute least, and then have ld as a step forward for reprentatn, that's a b of a another world, I like to image that Thanos is alive and that he ed his Snap abili a more nstctive way.
AVENGERS: ENDGAME HAS THE MCU'S FIRST OPENLY-GAY CHARACTER (BUT DID IT WORK?)
At long last, Avengers: Endgame has fally troduced the Marvel Cematic Universe's first openly gay character, and 's not who you'd expect to be. * gay avengers endgame *

'Avengers: Endgame', the 22nd film the Marvel Cematic Universe, featur s first-ever openly gay character. * gay avengers endgame *
Bety and the Beast gave LeFou that famo “exclively gay moment” that amounted to a short dance wh a henchman. ) Includg a scene wh a gay character as mor as this don’t rectify that realy, jt mak the overwhelmg samens of the rt of the enterprise more stark. This isn’t to say that I don’t appreciate seeg gay characters appear on screen, or that I want studs to stop pictg them.
Consirg how tied a movie’s succs is to the ternatnal box office — and how some untry’s ernments feel about homosexualy (see Bohemian Rhapsody’s Cha ed) — is, an abstract, unemotnal way, imprsive that the Rso brothers got such a direct mentn of homosexualy to Avengers: Endgame.
