I was being sarcastic, i know why lesbians (in comparison to gays) and transmen (In comparison to transwomen) are generally ignored, because we’re women and this is a men’s world.

Gay men have historically faced more prosecution and violence for being homosexual than lesbians. Former British colonies and former soviet countries used to criminalise male homosexuality but never female homosexuality.

That’s true and that’s mostly because women’s sexuality were always downplayed, women weren’t even considered really homosexual to begin with. There are still countries in which male homosexuality is criminalized and female’s? “Non-existing“. It isn’t coincidence that those are the same countries in which women, straight or otherwise, are castrated — FGM. Women were persecuted and stigmatized for being women much more than for being homosexual. Women never have lost much because of homosexuality because they didn’t had much to lose in the first place.

Trailer Park Boys, Jim Lahey was gay, then after the show was bought by Netflix they made him bisexual.

I gladly don’t even know what show is this. My condolences, anything may be good until is bought by Netflix lol. I don’t even bother with netflix anymore, every show there is soft porn, and if I want to watch porn, I have better resources than netflix.

The transsexual’s introductory scene was him getting pegged by his girlfriend. Not to mention the Mexican fag hag who entered the gay man’s house uninvited and just decided to lay in bed between two gay men. And took photos of them sleeping together. Because she’s into Yaoi.

Don’t those things makes you think about how would people react if the opposite was done? Exemple: I can imagine that if the sense8 (gays couple, straight woman) situation was instead of a gay, a lesbian couple being objectified by a straight man, carried by the directors in a way that is supposed to be “cute and funny” like they do to the gay couple, it probably would be very poorly received by the mass, and rightly so. So what is it that don’t click and keep people from see that the couple is being objectified? And if they see that the couple is being objectified, why don’t they have a problem with it? I had this conversation with a friend of mine irl, and he simply can see that the couple is objectified, he told me I was overthinking and the straight woman love Nico and was just being supportive; he’s opinion is unanimous among all our friends who watched the show, which don’t surprise me given that the straight woman IS painted as a ally, their friendship is so genuine, she’s so open minded that she don’t even mind that the Mexican boy is gay, how great she is. The direction try to force this narrative so the objectification is justified.

I would not mind see objectification of gays and lesbians on tv show and movies if it wasn’t portrayed as a good or neutral thing. The objectification is real, many of us do experience it, in different ways and levels but most of us have lived it or seen it. I don’t go against reality being portrayed on entertainment, I think is through reality that we can immerse and relate to fictional characters, but how reality is portrayed matter.

Anyways I admit I’m probably over critical cause I’m butthurt because the time I wasted watching that shitshow is time I’ll never get back.
