Broadcast television is including a record number of LGBTQ series regulars and featuring an increased offering of lesbian representation and characters who exhibit racial diversity, according to glaad's annual 'Where We Are on TV' report
For the first time in GLAAD's annual "Where We Are on TV" report, LGBTQ regular and recurring women outnumber LGBTQ men: "This increase is exciting to see, given that LGBTQ women have been historically underrepresented in media."
Among those characters, 22 percent are black, 13 percent are Latinx and 8 percent are Asian Pacific Islander, which represents an equal high for black and Asian Pacific Islander characters since last year and a new high for Latinx characters.
Bisexual representation has dropped to 25 percent, a decrease of 4 percentage points. "In the real world, bisexual people actually make up the majority of the community," states the report, elaborating that UCLA's The Williams Institute has collected data which shows that bi+ people comprise 52 percent of LGBTQ people.
