[ill_omened]

That doesn't really disprove anything. There's always myriad factors at play there.

Now I doubt people are saying 'look, bromance is reducing homophobia!', they're almost certainly going to be arguing its greater presence is evidence of a more tolerant culture. Which it is.

[iggy]

If bromance is evidence of a more tolerant culture, then I'm surprised that it's so massively common in the supposedly vastly more homophobic than the UK, US media. ;)

Gay subtext in an unironic fashion or whatevs. Not Scrubs style post-ironic celebration of masculine friendship.

[iggy]

But most of the UK shows that people hail as progressive for their bromance are just ironic subtext (aka queerbaiting)...?

Sherlock and Watson's relationship is no more progressive and gay friendly than JD and Turk's. It being a comedy series doesn't make it less intimate (and there are plenty of bromances that are in drama shows and therefore have a similar feel to BBC Sherlock's).

Really US television, film, etc. kind of rules the bromance genre.

(I don't think bromance is progressive though. It's been around forever. Super close, almost intimate, male friendships are as old as time.)

I think JD and Turk is more gay-friendly than Sherlock and John. For one: JD and Turk don't deny their love for each other.
