I understand what you're getting at, but please excuse me if I still don't see it the same.I was making a point about the past. Whatever representation gays get now had to be won. It's not like they have always had control over how they're portrayed and represented.
If you're saying they get better portrayals than Black ppl get nowadays, that means their fight to get that was more effective. We should be taking a page out of their book rather than complaining about seeing them on TV.
Co sign on everything except Marvel. I don't think I have ever seen any faggotry in Marvel movies or products. I could be wrong though.Marvel has made all the alphabet heros black. Why is that? Black male/white female interracial couples out number white male/ black female couples in the real world but watching TV you would never know it. They rarely show an intact black family in movies or commercials and the effect is many of us are programmed to not see ourselves in the future. Many prominent black male reporters or anchors are gay. All of this is no accident. They stopping abortions to make more white babies and hoping we don't make any black ones. Black Hollywood too busy being weird.
If you're referring to the past, we seldom saw explicit straight sexual acts. Films and TV steered clear of explicit sex until at least the 70s. Even Lucy and Desi didn't share the same bed.I understand what you're getting at, but please excuse me if I still don't see it the same.
Seldom, if ever, did we see actual gay acts onscreen. It was effeminate men with the implied concept that they were 'that way'. Their sexual preference wasn't at the forefront of their portrayal in the way of kissing or fucking. It was purely comical and they, in no way, were subjected to the menial existences that Black actors had to play.
And as someone earlier said, being Black is something that doesn't require an action to see. No further methods are needed to prove it on film. Alphabets can't say the same. Some become caricatures of gayness. Especially when the cameras roll.
Show me the movies (not newsreels or propaganda documentaries) that had even the most effeminate men on screen subjected to only playing junkies, bums, thieves and rapists. You'd be lucky (and I'd be surprised) to find more than a couple, if any. Remember, we don't use the smallest portions of evidence as the sample size. We use the largest. And no group had to endure what we did.
Society didn't tolerate gayness back then. But the closeted gay execs in hollyweird didn't allow themselves to be bashed onscreen en masse.
But somehow, they found a way to constantly green light the worst portrayals of us history has ever seen.
They didn't change the playbook. They always had it. And now they are just wielding power like their lifestyle: Openly.
mailboxpimp home watching rupaul drag race right now talking bout, fuck you @The Untouchable GDFOLKS
That's the thing bro..I have no problem with rupaul's drag race...know why??? Cause I know it's some fruit shit off the bat so I'm not TRICKED into watching it!

STFU Faggot!Why do you dudes let other people affect your lives?
NOBODY in movies was 'gay'. They were effeminate. And being comic relief isn't exclusive to alphabet experience. Besides, they were often depicted as managers of stores, school faculty, dance instructors, wealthy land owners, theater types etc.. (Not as rapists)If you're referring to the past, we seldom saw explicit straight sexual acts. Films and TV steered clear of explicit sex until at least the 70s. Even Lucy and Desi didn't share the same bed.
And I'm not arguing gays had it worst Black people. I'm just saying they were shown in a negative light when they were depicted at all. They were either cowards, rapists, sissies, or dandies. They were never shown to be heroes or just normal upstanding citizens.
Showing gays in a positive light and including them in many TV and films as a normal part of society is very new.
i was watching titans the other day when that gay ass tim kissed that other guy at the complex i was like aww man not this shit smh
Guess Tim is now (supposedly) bi in the comics..Was it part of the plot?
They were depicted as rapists as well. I just showed you clip from the 60s depicting gays as a danger to boys. The point is that they were seldom depicted positively.NOBODY in movies was 'gay'.

That is, in no way, the negativity that matches the criteria for purposes of this conversation. Remember, my argument was and still is.... that it's not a fair comparison to Black peoples' depictions in entertainment. Past or present.
"The Irish had it bad too" aint shit to me in a realistic debate about disparity. I view this in the same light.
Like Chappelle said, they're minorities until they need to be white again.
This is getting circular. So I'll say this to end my stance:
Any role that effeminate men played onscreen was played by whites. Knowing that, there was only so much done to them in movies. The viewer guessed that they were 'sissies'.
'Manly' society dismissed them, rather than cruelly degrade them. Lest we moonwalk around the real meaning of degradation.
Anyone looking knows this meaningless influx of homosexuality in roles is just pandering to a demographic for money.
Hit me up when the alphabet actors see it for what it is and complain. But you know that will never happen because they. Don't. Care.

Bro, you posted a propaganda newsreel, not a movie.They were depicted as rapists as well. I just showed you clip from the 60s depicting gays as a danger to boys. The point is that they were seldom depicted positively.
Was it as bad or degrading as how Black people were depicted, no. I wasn't arguing that to begin with. My point both were shown in a negative light until recently.
As far as media depictions ate concerned, it's all pandering for money. Black Panther, for instance, would never have been made if Disney didn't think it was a great way to get Black dollars. Everything done in the media is about money at the end of the day.
That would be true with the DCEU too. In the first Wonder Woman, Diana pretty much said men aren't needed for sex on Themyscira and that line was taken from one of the animated films IIRC.With the Marvel studio movies, the only thing preventing them from going buckwild with aggressive (in lieu of being subtle) gay stuff is the PG-13 rating. Otherwise, they'd prob go HAM with the alternative sexual encounters out of nowhere.
Instead of thinking about me.... tell everybody about your big booty latina that you're always with...... better yet..... let me tell them for you.....We gotta add Puff GAYdersin and SuckerWHOREmoist to the #lightbright club of faggotry now.
It just us what it is.
Bro, you posted a propaganda newsreel, not a movie.(I specifically spoke about that as well)
I never said society. I said (repeatedly) hollyweird.So, are you arguing that doesn't reflect society's views of gays in the 1960s? I actually saw a documentary about Hollywood's depiction of gays, maybe on HBO, but its been over 10 years since I saw it and don't really feel looking for it.
Marvel has made all the alphabet heros black.
Hollywood, specifically its films, reflects society's expectations and values. This whole "Hollyweird" thing is new and pretty marginal. For better or worse, most people admire what comes out of Hollywood.I never said society. I said (repeatedly) hollyweird.
Please don't deviate from what the actual debate was about.
fuck around and see some random fag shit on there soon too Mighty![]()
You would have a valid argument if what hollyweird put out and that propaganda reel were the same. It was not.Hollywood, specifically its films, reflects society's expectations and values. This whole "Hollyweird" thing is new and pretty marginal. For better or worse, most people admire what comes out of Hollywood.
Respectfully, who?that's not true. There are white gay characters and more will surface soon.
STFU Faggot!
You think this thread accurately reflects the opinions of the average man and woman on this particular issue? I doubt that.And this thread wouldn't exist if most people admired what comes out of hollyweird.
Korg, that dyke from Deadpool (now part of the mcu), loki, sylvie, America and her moms, and I'm sure Billy and Tommy will be gay, since they are gay/bi in the comics. Couple of non major characters as well.Respectfully, who?
No way to quantify that. But look around. It's not in a vaacum. And if you're really, really, really honest, you KNOW it would be discussed more if not for fear of retribution from the alphabet mafia.You think this thread accurately reflects the opinions of the average man and woman on this particular issue? I doubt that.
I never claimed it's a vacuum but it's self-selecting since this is a porn board for straight, Black men. So the opinions of that demographic are overrepresented here compared to mainstream culture.No way to quantify that. But look around. It's not in a vaacum. And if you're really, really, really honest, you KNOW it would be discussed more if not for fear of retribution from the alphabet mafia.
However, there is a 100% way to quantify hollyweird's depictions of that group vs. our group.
It's called movies.
Ok I stand corrected but you are reaching on some of those. The larger point is they used black heros Valkyrie & Phastos as the vanguard to introduce gay representation into the MCU. The agenda is clear.Korg, that dyke from Deadpool (now part of the mcu), loki, sylvie, America and her moms, and I'm sure Billy and Tommy will be gay, since they are gay/bi in the comics.

bro we all going through it with this BS. A nigga can't enjoy shit without seeing that non-sense everywhereEvery show, every movie, every gotdamn commercial has to have some gay ass shit in it.
I don't give a fuck about fag characters but do they have to randomly throw that shit in EVERYTHING randomly? The shit literally just be thrown in...won't have shit to do with the plot or story line or any fucking thing.
Even commercials. Damn near any commercial I see on these streaming platform always have some flaming fag shit and 95 percent of the time it's a fruity ass nigga...not a cracker...always a nigga.
Yall seen this shit?
Where am I crying and where is it I said I hate gay people, what I said was directed towards you and you only, so STFU Faggot!No.
Hit dogs hollar cause you dudes see gay people and it must got you feeling a type of, ways cause you on here crying about it.
For a bunch of dudes that swear they hate gay people y'all sure talk about them a lot.
OrI never claimed it's a vacuum but it's self-selecting since this is a porn board for straight, Black men. So the opinions of that demographic are overrepresented here compared to mainstream culture.
A good rule of thumb -- whatever Twitter/social media feels about a particular film or TV show, that's how the average person feels about it.
