Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender characters may be showing up on television with increasing regularity, but they are still a relative rarity in mainstream movies released by the major Hollywood studios. In its third annual report about LGBT representation on film, GLAAD, the gay advocacy group, found that of the 114 releases from the major studios in 2014, only 20 of them, or 17.5 percent, included characters identified as lesbian, gay or bisexual.

Among the inclusive films, the report found, 65 percent of them featured gay male characters, less than a third featured bisexuals and about one tenth included lesbian characters. There was a slight increase in racial diversity with 32.1 percent of the characters being people of color, compared to 24 percent in 2013. Of the 28 characters GLAAD counted, 19 were white (67.9 percent), three were black/African-American (10.7 percent), two were Latin (7.1 percent), and four were Asian/Pacific Islander (14.3 percent).

Hollyweird features us about 15 times more frequently that we appear in society ... and that's not nearly inclusive enough!
This is like, unbelievable. They’re knocking themselves out to sweat rainbows and they are getting panned just the same?
Something evil their way comes.
Seems like every show on ABC-CBS-NBC, et al, has at least one or more homos in it, or a homo actor playing a straight ........
Please please please add more of them to the movies. Make them the main characters and rewrite everything around them. I can’t wait to see what happens to your box office numbers. Jacka$$e$.
The most accurate depiction of queers ever seen on the silver screen occurred in the movies “Deliverance” and “Midnight Cowboy.”
That is one angry crowd. They make the most raging proverbial “angry white man” look like a meek mouse by comparison.
Yeah, and CAIR might be minded to “give failing grades” to both of them too for not having enough Muslim “martyrs” in film.
This would seem to be a great economic opportunity for GLAAD to form their own studio and make tons of money producing films loaded up with gays. The public is just desperate for their product. /sarc
They won’t be satisfied until Disney makes a story about how Gipetto liked wood
And make their own wedding cakes too!
Lot’s of FAGS making films though. Remember the original cover, long ago revised that, of the VHS movie:
More Liberal tyranny
NCIS-New Orleans last night was the latest to cave. Switched back to the Red Sox even though they had blown the lead.
Yeah, Disney Feature Animation is so anti-gay. /eyeroll
You can’t expect a publicly-traded corporation to have an animated, for-all-ages film having an openly gay character whose gayness is a major plot point.
What Disney and other strongly-left-leaning firms do is hint around the edges. Some quick examples: the Hunchback, Mulan and Elsa (of “Frozen”) may not have been gay, but they sang plaintive songs about how different and not-accepted they felt because of that difference.
And I think that’s cool.
But apparently to the militant types, it’s not enough.
Part of the ‘dark herd’, spawn of the evil one preparing US for destruction, spewing forth from the heart of darkness. This demand to be featured not just tolerated should leave no doubt as to what they intend: nothing less than the perversion of America’s children, to generate playthings for their degeneracy.
> Seems like every show on ABC-CBS-NBC, et al, has at least one or more homos in it, or a homo actor playing a straight ........
Obviously not enought to convince most children they should grow up to be homos
They might even insist on a re-casting in ancient Rome; a story about Gepettus and the young, “beautiful” Pinocius.
Never has 2 percent of any population caused such angst and social upheaval.
This article speaks volumes as to who controls the “Hollywood Reporter”.
