Is Gay Pride just Tokenism?

In the lead up to Pride Month, we are beginning to see an annual wave of support for the LGBTQ+ people around us. But much of this “support” may not be the loving expression that we think it is. Stereotypes, such as The Gay Best Friend, can be heard all year round, but are these terms doing far more harm than good? Daniel Harding, author of Gay Man Talking, joined Stefanie Preissner who was filling in for Seán today to explain his relationship with these terms and the effects they can have on gay individuals.
