Hopefully people do learn from it. Especially since it's a pretty diverse audience and totally unexpected from a show like this. If they can do it, then there's no reason why other shows/movies can't show the same respect and do something similar. I'm glad they spun the BYG trope into something positive.

Yeah, that's what was so nice about it.

Well blow me down Supergirl made that much gayer than I was anticipating for Maggie's first episode! God I'm so happy about it. There's no way anyone can deny where this is going now.

This week has been such a good TV week.

What good is love if it’s one-sided? I have no choice but to confess my feelings to Ed.

Ed. A man comes to a crossroads in his life and he has to make a choice. Does he choose safety and cowardice or does he opt for
courage and risk everything? I choose courage. What I’m trying to say is,*the thing I’ve been wanting to tell you all day long is…

Yeah DC is being pretty awesome right now. Definitely putting Marvel to shame when it comes to TV and film.

this isn't ~technically gay stuff tho celia freijeiro IS gay, so it totally counts but i didn't want to clog up the OT thread with 6H stuff.

ADELA












"This is how I held all of my sisters in my arms. So little. And from that moment, I knew they would
be the most important thing in my life. I’m not dying, tía. I will live in them, as if we were one."

please, @god, please let celia's character in cable girls be gay. PLEASE.

I meant in terms of onscreen lgbt rep (nothing else) since we're in the lgbt thread.
