I was watching a show on Prime (an old one of course since they have a good classic library) and there was a trailer for a new movie on Prime about a guy falling in love with a "trans woman" aka dude who thinks he is a girl.

Whenever my dad sees stuff like this he always says "who is clamoring for this?". You will never convince me that there is a substantial market that wants to see stuff like this. I've been saying for a while that execs need to stop listening to what Eric July calls "weirdos on twitter".

The downfall of so much entertainment/hobbies starts with ignoring your main demographic. Comic book companies for some reason thought there was an untapped market of women who will buy comic books (and not bothering to see that Manga has something for everyone). Not women who enjoy them, but women who openly hate them, and they get the jobs in the industry. Similar to video games, and one of the dumbest examples would be Hallmark. They have gone all in on lgbt representation. The former CEO started GAC which he described as a channel for faith based content and he is getting attacked for "anti-lgbt" sentiments, but he is simply understanding who his market is.

I think there is an audience for those who want heavy lgbt content and you could make a streaming service or channel, but for some reason there is an insistence that across the board we all have to watch that. I think Warehouse 13 is one of the best examples of a gay character because it only comes up when it is relevant, but at this point with all the over saturation people are probably just fed up with lgbt, black, female, or hispanic/immigration stories.

Sorry for the rant but I am so tired of this. I guess at this point there needs to be parallel economy. I am a more traditional minded Christian so I guess I'll just do my best to support that content. The value of a streaming service for me depends on how much older stuff it has. I guess I can start my own streaming service and promise no shows made after 2010.
