“I remember people started tweeting at me: Make sure you’re wearing a bulletproof vest.”

– Kat Barrell (Wynonna Earp)
Javier Grillo-Marxuach

“Well, I’m not killing anymore lesbians.”

– Javier Grillo-Marxuach (The 100, Lost, The Witcher)
Megan Townsend

“There is value in our stories, queer people are a huge audience…and we wanna watch it and then we wanna talk to you about it.”

– Megan Townsend (Director of Entertainment Research & Analysis, GLAAD)
Michael MacLennan

Why are we denying her a love story when we would never think of doing that for any of the [straight] characters?

– Michael MacLennan
(Queer As Folk, Bomb Girls, The Fosters)
Michelle Mama

If every time a queer character experiences joy or triumph and then you destroy them or murder them or kill the them off…what kind of message are you sending people?
