5/1/2023 0 Comments 10 Gay Watches (TV Shows)Padma (she/her)For me, starting a television show is a big deal. If I’m going to commit my time and energy to caring about characters and reflecting on their decisions, I need it to be good. I also cannot watch shows that show no diversity, and I often get bored very easily. I don’t mean to say that I can’t care about characters that are different from me, but I find that it adds another interesting layer of depth and reality when shows include characters that are POC and/or queer. It’s even better when these characters aren’t pushed off into a B story, with such little screen time that their presence almost doesn’t matter. So, here is a masterlist of TV shows that include main characters who are queer!

Below is a picture of me at that time. The song is a bit sad as, when I wrote it, I was struggling with my emotions and mental health, not to mention the fact that I was closeted while attending a Catholic high school. Now, this song shows me my strength and how far I’ve come. It feels right for it to be the final creative piece I submit to “The Michigan Gayly.” Thank you all.
