  • Summary

  • If there’s a woman on TV having relationship problems, you better believe there's a sassy gay stereotype giving her wise and insightful advice. In the early naughties, the gay best friend almost became a sign of status for the cultured, inner-city lady. Leni and Brendy break down how the GBF stereotype has changed from an accessory to the staring role and the importance of the gay male & straight female friendship when "coming out”.
