I loved
The L Word when it first began. It addressed some interesting issues, and it was groundbreaking to have a
show revolving around the lives and loves of lesbian and bisexual
characters. As
the l word progressed, I became more and more fed up with the way the characters were handled. Besides the ever-annoying Jenny, the
characters I had loved from the start started to degrade into generally bad people. EVERYONE cheats on everyone. In the
season 6 opener, Alice even admits that this is the standard lesbian thing to do. This is the message we want to be sending? Angus, the one positive male figure on
the l word, was turned into a cheating bastard.
The l word essentially shows the message that it's ok to cheat, bisexuals aren't good enough to be friends with lesbians, men are evil, and everything boils down to sex. That's not the message that should be sent in the one lesbian drama on television. That said, I suppose it's still entertaining television.
