The kids think he is going to marry a controlling fiancée , but at the end of the episode they learn that his "fiancée" is actually his sister and the real person he's marrying is a nice man instead. The gay relationship is seen as normal and the episode doesn't focus or other the relationship. Many shows try to make the center focus the queer relationship and try to teach viewers about same sex relationships, this makes it seem normal and not hamfisted.]]> 2022-11-18 16:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2390191331 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2390195331 Many pieces of art (different mediums) that show the many type of relationships these pieces could be portraying.

However, recent media has taken to showing toxic or abusive relationships as positive and something desirable. Authors like Colleen Hoover market their books as romance even if the book centers on an abusive relationship. It is marketed as a romance to reach a wider audience and this can be incredibly dangerous for readers who see these abusive relationships as romance and think that they should replicate these relationships in their own lives. This article talks about how while some shows will have characters fight,  it is ultimately shown as absurd and unrealistic. Most media shows one kind of a relationship and this limited view... can have a "detrimental effect" and "isolate young people even more" - Dr. Marianna Strongin. Relationship standards are skewed and many insecurities develop by comparing ourselves/relationships to the media we see. People should be content with the other meaningful aspects of [their] lives.]]> 2022-12-09 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2415901448 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455117210 Many teens use social media as a way to connect interact with their significant other. It "helps to develop a relationship" and can make people more comfortable around each other. They use social media to display their relationships and often times portray a curated image, of themselves and their relationship. They can use it to show their affection towards their significant other and in support of their friends relationships. However, many teens believe they reveal too much about their relationship due to the influence of social media. They find people are too invested in their relationship, specifically breakups. While many teens use social media to flaunt their relationships, many also avoid sharing it because they want to keep their relationship private and not deal with the drama. ]]> 2023-01-24 18:07:47 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455117210 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455128421 Media, specifically movies and tv shows, portrays love in very specific ways that are so common people believe them to be true. It creates expectations of real life romance that just aren't probable for the average human. This article talks about the common myths perpetuated in the media, ideas of soulmates, love at first site, happily ever afters, etc. and how these just can't be possible. It talks about how the media shows these myths, but biologically speaking, these myths are myths because they are unattainable. As a society we know these are unattainable, yet people believe in them anyways to hold on hope for their own relationships. People "have been conditioned to accept [these myths] as normal" even though they are unrealistic and inaccurate to real life.]]> 2023-01-24 18:15:11 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455128421 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455131251 Often times relationships between two people in tv shows veers towards a romantic nature, even when they characters could be better as just friends. There is so little representation of heterosexual friendships that the immediate thought is that they will get together. When queer characters have close friendships, by not pairing them together romantically, it skirts the line of having a healthy friendship and queer baiting. Queer media often has almost all characters focus on or getting into romantic relationships, and it doesn't give enough screen time or thought to the friendships, which are also important to portray. Many queer people have many queer friendships and yet when those friendships are portrayed in media it is labeled as queer baiting, especially by the queer community. The best way this can be fixed is by showing more queer people in media, just as regular people. ]]> 2023-01-24 18:17:13 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455131251 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455528643 2023-01-25 01:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455528643 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455532836 2023-01-25 01:29:14 UTC https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2455532836 15711391 https://padlet.com/15711391/70m9ltza7ib10bcy/wish/2467925113 The Pandemic has aided in people losing touch with their friends. Many men and women lost touch with a few of their friends, while more young women than men lost touch with most of their friends. In all most Americans rely on their partner or spouse for support, yet young women rely on their friends more and young men rely on their parents more. In recent decades ?? people have put more emphasis on having less close friends and this could be a change in values of quality over quantity. It also kind of reflects tv shows of the time, shows like Friends, Gilmore Girls, and HIMYM all have relatively small casts that focus on the interpersonal relationships of the characters. Also women receive more emotional support from their friends and this is reinforced by toxic and unhelpful stereotypes of men and their emotions, it ties in to how men struggle to express their emotions in a constructive way.

African American families were commonly portrayed on situation comedy shows, like the Cosby Show. However, many minority families in film/tv were portrayed with negative stereotypes, if they were even portrayed at all. Parents behaviors and siblings behaviors were common focuses of these kinds of shows, yet there was no truly big, lasting conflict. This helps identify some of the tv shows that popularized and became the first to show certain kinds of family dynamics, whether that be of different races or different interactions.
