Approximation of the characters representation from groups of sexual diversity

Abstract

The objective of this article has been an approximation to the way in which the representation of characters from the LGBTI + collective has occurred in the last decades in the audiovisual media. The intention of this analysis is to point out the impact that a biased or stereotyped representation can have on the constitution of incorrect or limited imaginaries that trigger situations of discrimination towards this population group. The reflection focuses on the need to pay attention to the responsibility that means for content generators, to build and present characters as authentic and attached to reality as possible, considering that this is part of the social responsibility they have towards their consumers.
