Okay, but that'd still be about 1 in 20 characters, which is not nearly what I see, and for the queer characters, it's still disproportionately gay men rather than lesbians.

It says something that the only time we've seen a well-depicted lesbian couple on tv was in an anime called Bodacious Space Pirates.

No really.

The sitcom Still Standing has a lesbian couple for I think a season, living next door to the main family. The parents in this show are jerks so the husband makes the typical "hot" comments and the wife says some well-intentioned but stupid things but that's the joke, and the writers did it well in my opinion. There was also an earlier episode where the older daughter had a lesbian teacher, and that was pretty good.

They are definitely minor characters though.

It's nice to get some representation, and I'm sure it's well-intentioned, but gosh, I'm tired of that sort of thing as well.

In Bodacious Space Pirates (no really) the two lesbians are three-dimensional, totally competent and super entertaining, and when one of them rescues the other (or rather, after she rescues herself five minutes earlier) they MAKE THE FUCK OUT and the only joke there is about how strange it is for the two of them to be smooching while everyone else is awkwardly standing around, waiting for them to stop so they can launch their spaceship and go somewhere else.

And that shit is refreshing and we had no idea how much we needed to see an adorable couple and not have Being Gay be any sort of a Thing that needed to be commented on.

Yeah I get that, personally I think it's better done than other shows like this.

Well, I'm definitely putting that on my list of things I need to watch. c:
