What percentage of TV characters must be straight white Christian conservative nuclear family members that aren't the butt of everyone's joke?

Will some of them be dumb, druggies, murderers, thieves, etc or will all be wholesome people like the ones they put on now?

Yet a 2017 Gallup survey of 340,000 people showed that only 4.5% of the U.S. population self-identify as LGBTQ, which is much closer historically to polling on these questions. If GLAAD succeeds in its push for 20% of television regulars to be LGBTQ characters, LGBTQ television characters would overrepresent the actual LGBTQ population by 40%, according to the organization’s own data.


Nice math

Wait. So hiring someone based on their sexual orientation isn’t discrimination?

Americans Have No Idea How Few Gay People There Are

In surveys conducted in 2002 and 2011, pollsters at Gallup found that members of the American public massively overestimated how many people are gay or lesbian. In 2002, a quarter of those surveyed guessed upwards of a quarter of Americans were gay or lesbian (or "homosexual," the third option given). By 2011, that misperception had only grown, with more than a third of those surveyed now guessing that more than 25 percent of Americans are gay or lesbian. Women and young adults were most likely to provide high estimates, approximating that 30 percent of the population is gay. Overall, "U.S. adults, on average, estimate that 25 percent of Americans are gay or lesbian," Gallup found. Only 4 percent of all those surveyed in 2011 and about 8 percent of those surveyed in 2002 correctly guessed that fewer than 5 percent of Americans identify as gay or lesbian.

GLAAD and the alphabet community don’t even hide the fact that they intend to brainwash our children into believing mental illness is normal.

I thought everybody in Hollywood was gay.
Anyway, they better be worrying about the trans movement & pissing the straight women of this country off. Those things (trans) are stealing all of our women’s glory in anything competitive. Won’t be long and our lovely ladies are going to turn on the mentally ill (trans) folks.
It will be glorious to watch our ladies break down this stupid fricking movement.

There are already too damn many queer characters on TV. Far more than real life.
