Unfortunately, biphobia and homophobia still exist. In 1996, MTV premiered a gay episo of their h datg show Sgled Out.
(MTV)The first gay reprentatn on realy TV stretch back to 1973's PBS doceri An Amerin Fay, which followed the daily liv of an upper-middle class fay Santa Barbara, California, and is monly nsired the first example of the realy TV genre. While wasn't necsarily part of the plan, some of the seri' biggt moments clud the separatn of the fay via divorce, and one of the sons, Lance, g out as gay. It was important and pletely novel reprentatn for the time perd, and as such, was prented wh the same kd of tn-meets-entertament flavor that LGBTQ and other margalized people have had to balance when appearg years after An Amerin Fay, The Real World explod on MTV screens, creatg the first real visibily and reprentatn of LGBTQ dividuals wh st members like Pedro Zamora, a gay man livg wh HIV/AIDS on the third season San Francis 1994 and Katelynn Canelli, the first transgenr woman to be a hoemate on Season 21 Brooklyn 2009.

Gay men have had two realy datg petns: Bravo's Boy Meets Boy and Logo's Fdg Prce Charmg, both of which only lasted one season.
