The Umbrella Amy uld have found a unique way to circumvent the Bury Your Gays trope, killg off a gay character while still allowg them to experience a happy endg of sorts, but seems that this wasn’t meant to and Dave serve to be reprented ways that aren’t fed purely by sufferg, and this be even more evint once you pare Umbrella to DC's Doom are weird superhero shows that buted on the same day and both feature queer leads who are sufferg some kd of loss, but the way that the stori are told differs hugely. It’s about time that shows like this learn to stop buryg the gays, and that’s te whether the apolypse wip everyone out or not.

ROBERT SHEEHAN DON'T WANT HIS UMBRELLA AMY CHARACTER TO BE LABELLED AS JT "THE GAY ONE"

As someone who is bi and has been wh a few guys before, Netflix has always REALLY annoyed me wh their sistence on forcg gay characters to every origal seri they make as if we are jt some fuckg check box to meet a quota, the only aspect of the characters personaly is that they are gay, and that is . You meet a character, they somehow fd a way to say they are gay when isn't necsary and thats , they have no substance and that is furiatg.

People dont hate you gay characters bee they are gay, they hate your gay characters bee they have no character. And I also assumed there was a gay character among the ma group, although I assumed was gog to be Ellen Page om the start.

The further to the show i uld feel more and more "Gayisms" for lack of a better word Kls, as if his movements got a ltle more exaggerated or somethg. Anyway, as soon as was revealed that he was gay.... Bee Kls already had tons of character, he was likeable and i related to several stggl he had, the fact he was gay didn't matter, bee I was vted him as a character, and to me, character matter to me way more than the character jt lookg like me or them likg to stick their dick the same plac as me.
