Heteronormativity: How it Stunts Queer Representation | READUS 101

Heteronormativity: How it Stunts Queer Representation || While queer representation in movies, tv and video games is as higher as its ever been, heteronormativity in movies, tv and video games is always present in trying to police how gay the characters are allowed to be instead of just giving the representation of lgbtq individuals the same equality as straight characters. So I break down exactly how heteronormativity stunts queer representation in film, television and video games, using The Mitchells vs. The Machines, The Quarry, and Q-Force as examples of what and what not to do.
