More visibility for the LGBTQ Community

There has been a steady decline since 2006 of characters from the LGBTQ community represented on television, guessing this is not a coincidence that this statistic coincides with the last administration.  However, the good news is that GLAAD’s most recent study shows an increase in visibility, specifically to ABC and True Blood.  I’ve not seen True Blood, but I admit, I am quite taken with ABC’s Modern Family.  With increased visibility, we continue to become the mainstream fabric of our culture.  We are everywhere and we are no different than our heterosexual brothers and sisters.  In my case, I’m no different than my two gay brothers.  See the full study here.
