  • Define "gay empire," there is still a lot of stigma and misrepresentation of queer people in Hollywood films, just think about all these films (that each won Oscars or were nominated) with transgender characters played by cisgender actors (The Crying Game, Boys Don't Cry, Transamerica). I would say it has mostly created a straight empire banking on queer stereotypes. – Alexandre Vermeil 9 years ago

  • What is gay empire? Maybe be specific on what you mean. Does it mean the series of movies about gays that won academy awards? such as Milk? – ferozan 9 years ago

  • I definitely think if you were more specific about what this meant and got in depth on gay stereotypes and how they're used in media it could be interesting. – Lacey Womack 9 years ago
