It’s bizarre to watch people who don’t know Mexican tv or its history criticize it from the outside. Like, have some perspective. This is also a cultural thing. Please be a little more respectful when you talk about our level of representation not being “advanced.” That’s a weird word to use, and also you are applying different standards to a televisual form you have little understanding of.

Apologies if it comes across like I’m judging it or criticizing it as a whole. I’m talking more in terms of how much LGBT media there’s been, how much experience there’s been in consuming it and creating it. It’s not that American shows do it better, but they have had more time and practice. I’m speaking to that. 

And another anon?:

“Lol, aww, they are trying, aren’t they” = extremely condescending

I meant it in an endeared sense. They’re facing a bit of a shitstorm and are handling it this way. I think it’s sweet.
