About this episode

The episode discusses the Bury Your Gays trope and its implications for queer representation in media.

Hi friends! This week we continue our Pride month special episodes with a conversation about the Bury Your Gays trope. We talk about queer characters and queer-coded characters being portrayed as villains, the violence surrounding queer characters, and the way the Hays Code contributed to the trope. If you have thoughts on this trope, we would love to hear them! You can find us on Bluesky and Tumblr.
