Re: Penny worth your thoughts?

[(Anonymous)]

Token to me personally means a character who is solely identified by whatever makes them 'other'.

For example, if you have a black character who is defined by how 'ghetto' or 'street' they are, that's pretty damn racist and tokenism. Like they just went, "Well we need a black person, how do they act? Make them all about that." rather than defining the character and then deciding to make them black.

Like, in Stephen King's Cell (the movie, though the character is ambiguously gay in the novel), Tom McCourt is gay. And the only reason you know he is, is because he briefly mentions that he has no one to check on because his man left him.

That's it. No stereotypical femme-gay acting, nothing else, just a throwaway line that identifies his sexuality but doesn't make the character a 'gay character' but rather a character who happens to be gay.
