I’m only asking cuz all the examples I can think of off the top of my head at least, regarding recent LGBT+ characters/representation (Steven Universe, She-Ra, Owl House, etc.), all coincidentally involve gay/bi women. I’m having a much harder time thinking of any gay/bi men.

I hope you know what I’m getting at and I’m not coming off as a “WHERE’S WHITE/STRAIGHT PRIDE MONTH?!” guy.

Jack Harkness from Doctor Who

:lt-kitsuragi:

Movies: Call Me By Your Name, Moonlight, Brokeback Mountain

Lil Nas X

Gregg and Angus from Night in the Woods

:shinji-screm:

The dudes in the anime Yuri on Ice (though they stop juuuuuust short of making it explicitly romance)

Some of the dudes in the anime Hunter x Hunter (though I wouldn’t say they’re good representation)

There are gay relationships in the anime Shinsekai Yori

My favorite band, Ghost, is sorta made up of fictional characters (it’s complicated) and they do a lot of gay stuff on stage. I think it’s safe to say all the frontmen have been bisexual.

It is with great reluctance and a heavy heart that I add rupaul’s drag race to this list

Todd from sad horse show is asexual

That’s all I can think of off the top of my head. I’ll add more if I think of any

That one clown guy from hunter x hunter comes mind, very much under the category of representation, but not the good kind. Which kinda sucks since he’s so compelling in the bits I’ve seen.
