The thesis 'Does Visibility Actually Help? : Televised Popular Culture and Support for LGBT Rights' by David Searcy explores the impact of LGBT representation in television on public opinion and legislative actions regarding LGBT rights. It argues that increased visibility of LGBT characters in popular culture has significantly influenced societal acceptance and governmental responses to LGBT issues over time. The study employs both quantitative analyses of character representation and public opinion data, as well as qualitative case studies, concluding that televised portrayals have played a crucial role in shaping attitudes towards LGBT rights, while also highlighting the complexities of this relationship.

Why is visibility important?

Up to 30% of our brains is devoted to visual processing, and even blind people rely on their visual cortex to build mental models of the world.

Why is LGBT visibility important?

Increasing visibility can create a positive connection and help raise awareness and acceptance of LGBTQIA+ people [9]. Without visibility, LGBTQIA+ people may not perceive their healthcare provider to be culturally sensitive or feel safe to disclose their identity or relationships [10].

Why is LGBT awareness important?

For those who do not live with a daily immediate risk to their life, discrimination on the basis of ones sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression and sex characteristics, can have a devastating effect on physical, mental and emotional well-being for those forced to endure it.

Why is it important to have LGBTQ representation?

Positive images can create positive attitudes. Positive representation of LGBTQ+ people can help us obtain equality, social acceptance, and a sense of belonging in society.

Why does visibility matter?
