Television programs constantly show that heterosexuality is the prevailing standard and that people that do not adapt to this heteronormative morale are regarded as eccentric and do not fit in American society. This study aims to contribute to an understanding of how the media representation of fictional gay and lesbian characters in U.S. TV-series persists heteronormativity. The theory explores different influencing factors and characteristics of heteronormativity related concepts coming from gender and sex theories. Consequently, these characteristics and elements of the literature will be identified and set side by side. As a method a theoretical conceptual framework, in the context of a qualitative content analysis, is conducted in order to investigate the characteristics and elements of the gays and lesbians in the selected TV-series.

    Post-Gay Television: “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” Marriage, and Bullying On and Off Screen A dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Liora P. Elias IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Laurie Ouellette, Adviser June 2015 © Liora P. Elias 2015 Acknowledgements I want to thank a number of people who have played an instrumental role in the quality and completion of my dissertation. First, my adviser Dr. Laurie Ouellette whose research and teaching has inspired my thinking as well as my pedagogy. I cannot estimate how many times I have had light bulb moments in Professor Ouellette’s classroom, during her lectures, or in conversation about the direction of my project. It has truly been a pleasure being guided into academia by her. I want to thank the rest of my committee as well. Dr. Mary Vavrus, whose work has inspired my own on many an occasion and whose support through the emotional ups and downs of graduate school has been extraordinarily helpful. Professor Vavrus’ research on Army Wives inspired my “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” chapter. Her feedback has made the chapter much stronger. Dr. Catherine Squires helped clarify and develop the topic of my dissertation in its early stages. I am also grateful to Professor Squires for her close reading and comments on my chapter on bullying in schools. Dr. Ronald Greene taught The Rhetoric of Social Movements class that allowed me the opportunity to historicize gay and lesbian activism early in my PhD coursework.
