[quote]8. [b]Representation[/b]. Gay and trans people are egregiously underrepresented in TV and film, media outlets that almost everyone goes to for entertainment and escapism. If you are straight and cisgender, you will find loads of relatable characters on screen. If your'e gay or trans, it's very hard to find relatable characters. Furthermore, trans people especially are commonly the butt of disgustingly offensive jokes in movies, usually as a way of poking fun at a straight man's sexuality. This lack of representation and horrible caricaturization teaches gay and trans youth that they are less important than others because they don't see people like themselves on TV.[/quote] How can they be represented like you want when they are a small portion of the population? It's like saying there's not enough blacks on TV, well of course there's more whites, blacks are only 13% of the population. For the sex Ed portion, what do you want them to teach? I mean they're teaching kids about what they're supposed to do to reproduce. You can't have kids by doing anal or rubbing vaginas. It's not what your asshole was meant for. Everybody knows It was meant for finger-popping.
