In this video I cover a number of BAD types of LGBTQ+ representation that we see in the media; from harmful stereotypes to subconscious defaults. But it's not all doom and gloom, I'll also be talking about three things you SHOULD do when writing LGBTQIA+ characters and representation.
Covering how to avoid the "token gay" and provide diverse representation, as well as suggesting some creators to check out if you want to further your research. Speaking of those creators, you can find them here!
