JFK s homophobia in my book,
On The Trail of Delusion - Jim Garrison: The Great Accuser, where I transcribed several of the scenes in his film. A quick summary: Oswald is painted as a fruitcake, members of the homosexual underworld discuss the JFK assassination at David Ferrie s apartment, David Ferrie and Clay Shaw engage in an S&M orgy, and then David Ferrie tells Jim Garrison he is being blackmailed by cocksucking faggot Clay Shaw.
I am not the first person to talk about the film s homophobia. Here is an article from The Advocate - a major LGBT publication - from early 1992.

Even though there s more visibility than ever for the LGBTQ+ community, coming out can still be difficult. If you re a parent of someone who recently came out, here s what you should know and how you can offer your support.
The average age of coming out gets younger each generation
, but the LGBTQ+ community still experiences discrimination.
Research suggests that children and young adults are coming out at younger ages and in greater numbers than earlier generations. According to a 2013 Pew Research Study, the median age LGBTQ+ people reported coming out to others is 20 years old. Individuals who are transgender (those whose gender identity is different from the gender they were assigned at birth) and non-binary (those whose gender identity isn’t exclusively male or female) reported coming out at an average of 18.5 years old, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Earlier this month, Braunwyn became the first openly gay housewife in the Bravo franchise after coming out as a lesbian during a chat with the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation I m a member of the LGBTQ+ community, she told GLAAD s Anthony Ramos. It has taken me 42 years to say that but I am so proud of where I am right now. I m so happy where I am. To be able to be comfortable in my own skin after so long is just so nice.

When GLAAD releases its annual report on LGBTQ+ visibility on television next year, 2020 likely will be dubbed a milestone for the prevalence of nonbinary characters on the small screen. From “P-Valley’s” Uncle Clifford and “Star Trek: Discovery’s” Adira to “Big Sky’s” Jerrie Kennedy and “Good Trouble’s” Lindsay Brady, there are more characters on TV whose gender identities and expressions fall outside of the incorrectly understood man-woman binary than ever before. But Jacob Tobia, the nonbinary author of the memoir “Sissy: A Coming-of-Gender Story,” which is being developed for TV by Showtime, isn’t yet applauding Hollywood.
