Gayngst	comment	Despite the older meaning of the word "gay," gay characters in fiction tend to be a miserable lot, and not by simple coincidence — their misery can be attributed largely to their sexuality or, more accurately, other people's attitudes towards it. In short, they don't just have angst, they have gayngst. Characters suffering from gayngst are prone to alcoholism and other forms of substance abuse, self-loathing, Self-Harm, rampant homophobia towards themselves and others, rejection by homophobic family members, falling in tragic unrequited love with heterosexuals, contemplating (and often committing) suicide, and wishing that they were straight. Gayngst is a Pet-Peeve Trope of many because while it usually portrays gay people sympathetically and addresses an issue many gay people in Real Life go through, it can be interpreted as saying that it's impossible to be gay without being miserable, or that gay people don't deserve Happy Endings, or at its very worst and most ineptly-handled, gay relationships are innately disastrous. However, gayngst is still unfortunately common in real life. After all, True Art Is Angsty transcends sexual orientation; a real-life term for this would be Internalized Homophobia. If the story wants an uplifting tone, the character will eventually come to terms with their sexuality, have the obligatory Coming-Out Story, and either live Happily Ever After with their love interest or morph into some other gay archetype (usually Straight Gay or Lipstick Lesbian; either this is their natural personality or they still have some lingering insecurity). Gayngst is often found in the Yaoi and Yuri Genre works for obvious reasons. Doesn't come up quite as often in works with a Cast Full of Gay — even if a couple of characters are of the angsty persuasion, they're usually balanced out by the rest of the cast in such a way that the Unfortunate Implications are done away with. Not to be confused with the Gayngster, although some gayngsters probably have their share of gayngst. Clumsy examples of gayngst often dive headfirst into Wangst territory. Sister Trope of Bury Your Gays, which it frequently overlaps with, as well as Trans Tribulations and Trans Relationship Troubles, Intersex Tribulations, Bi-Wildered, and Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child. Sometimes the result of Forced Out of the Closet, or Cure Your Gays. Depending on how they're played, it can be a Sub-Trope of Bullied into Depression, Why Couldn't You Be Different?, Internalized Categorism, Boomerang Bigot, and You Are What You Hate, and a Super-Trope of Incompatible Orientation, Armoured Closet Gay, Out of the Closet, Into the Fire, Homophobic Hate Crime, and Gayngst-Induced Suicide. Opposite of Queer People Are Funny.

Gayngst / int_1073cac2	comment	Dandelion Among Lilies is a short Yuri manga full of this. Mizuho and her girlfriend Ena seem to be Sickening Sweethearts however they have relationship issues. Ena worries that Mizuho is only dating her because she pities her while Mizuho is too scared of people judging them poorly so she hides their relationship from coworkers and peers. It turns out a lot of their troubles is due to poor communication more than anything and with the help of Mizuho's little sister they patch everything up.

This is justified in that it was made when male homosexuality was still a criminal offense in Britain, while the whole plot involves gay men being blackmailed for the fact as a result. The film was a plea to end criminalization so they wouldn't undergo this.

Gayngst / int_12300cc3	comment	Watchmen has several minor gay characters, none of whom get happy endings. A minor subplot near the end of the newsstand owner's side story involves a lesbian couple at odds with one another and is a huge example of gayngst AND spousal abuse. Fun. It ends with several prevalent minor characters trying to intervene in said abuse, including a police officer trying to catch Nite Owl and Rorschach's now-former prison psychiatrist. Of course, it's all for naught as they all die horribly when Ozymandias' plan is executed (though their bodies were seen huddled together, implying they've embraced each other in their last moment). And then there's the Silhouette, who was kicked out of the Minutemen upon being outed, and Hooded Justice and Captain Metropolis, who are strongly implied to have been secret lovers. All three are dead or missing before the story begins. Ozymandias is speculated to be gay by a few characters, and there are hints backing this up in the film version. While he doesn't seem particularly angst-filled, we learn later on that he's at least unhappy enough to be pretty okay with mass-murder.

He's aware of being "different" but doesn't understand what that means, except that his father is determined to beat him into some ideal of manliness that he feels incapable of living up to. It isn't until he travels from a backwater keep to the capital of Valdemar that he becomes exposed to people who are openly homosexual. His self-awakening is correspondingly traumatic, with Closet Key Tylendel becoming his lifebound as well as his first lover. When Tylendel dies after a tragic incident, Vanyel is left emotionally ravaged and becomes suicidal. He comes to terms with his sexuality gradually, but takes twenty years and until the third book of the trilogy before his father has enough Character Development for them to fully reconcile.

Gayngst / int_1925916d	comment	Dimension 20's premiere campaign features multiple queer characters that have a very difficult time accepting their sexualities. Most prominent in season 1 is PC Kristen Applebees, a human cleric raised in the homophobic church of Sol who, upon meeting a young werewolf girl named Tracker, realizes that she's a lesbian. She eventually learns to accept herself, confronts her parents, and runs away from home. In addition, NPC Ragh Barkrock, a half-orc barbarian that bullies the party for the first part of their freshman year, unintentionally reveals to them after a battle that he has a crush on his bloodrush captain Dayne Blayde (though he might not realize it at the time). After this battle where the party encourages him to express his emotions and get therapy, he begins to defend the PCs and talks to the school guidance counselor (Jawbone, who's actually Tracker's uncle) about his feelings. At Jawbone's encouragement, he talks to Dayne at prom about his feelings and swiftly gets socked in the face for it by his crush. He's left bereft by the rejection and attack until Gorgug gives him a kiss of encouragement and he finally learns to accept himself. During season 2: Sophomore Year, while rescuing Fig and Riz from hell, both Kristen and Ragh get a chance to confront the (now dead) people that hurt them the most in life regarding their sexualities: Coach Daybreak and Dayne. During Season 2: Sophomore Year, even more characters get a bit of gayngst. Fig Faeth, the tiefling bard/warlock (who, up until this point, clearly did not have the healthiest view of romance and intimacy as she'd constantly disguise herself as adults to "get her kisses in" with much older men), develops a crush on Ayda Augefort, the half-phoenix wizard daughter of her school principal. The two kiss and Fig goes VERY out of her way, expending multiple lucky points, to hide this fact (though this is very quickly made irrelevant as Ayda casually tells Adaine about the kiss almost immediately after, and then Adaine tells everyone else in the party). Everyone is very accepting and Fig and Ayda start officially dating. Riz Gukgak, PC goblin rogue (who, while not explicitly stated as queer in the series, is aro-ace according to Word of God), also has difficulty surrounding his identity. He struggles with watching all of his friends in relationships or having crushes on people because he just doesn't feel those emotions and doesn't know if he ever will. These insecurities manifest themselves as Baron of the Baronies, a fake partner that he lied about to his friends that, through the power of the Nightmare King, became real and tormented him. His anxieties surrounding not feeling romantic or sexual feelings are assuaged by a deep conversation with his dad.

Truth in Television as in the mid-90's acceptance of homosexuality was just starting to catch on then. Sadly, Peter's mindset was by far the norm during the times, with verbal and physical harassment against gays both common and tolerated. As a result many members of the queer community "put their hair up" (acted straight) to avoid it.

Of course, given that this happens in the S-Support, Corrin is quick to shut that down and admits that she feels the same. Rhajat is so overjoyed that she nearly faints. Note: This is only in the Japanese version. In the localization, probably in an attempt to avert the trope, her S-support with Female Corrin is the same as the male one... which ironically weakened the support, as her entire chain was swapped to be the same as the male one. Defied in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, where the archer Leo is in love with his best friend Valbar and fully aware that Valbar almost surely won't romantically love him back... but he rarely if ever angsts about his sexuality, and at most he admits that his love is unrequited but is happy to have these feelings and support Valbar as much as possible.

Roy Petty (a jaded FBI agent investigating the Byrdes) discovers Russ Langmore has a history with male prostitutes and starts a friendship to uncover information. The two go on a fishing trip and Roy reveals he's gay. Afterwards, he attempts to kiss Russ. Russ uses homophobic slurs and pushes him away, but returns to Roy's motel later and drunkenly initiates sex. Ruth kills Russ via electrocution in a later episode Agent Petty has very little ethical boundaries in investigating the Byrdes. Having sex with Russ and earning his trust for example is extremely unprofessional, but it is all part of the job for him. He supplies drugs to people working undercover for him, drinks constantly, is violent and obsessed with his work. He has a loving but difficult relationship with his mother, who became addicted to opiates and subsequently heroin after being in hospital. His ex also works for the FBI, and they have a strained relationship. Ruth's Dad kills Roy in season 2. Agent Trevor Carter (Roy's ex) is left up-in-the-air about their relationship when Roy leaves for the Ozarks. He and Roy are passive-aggressive with eachother, and he constantly questions Roy's ethics. In season 3, Carter is still recupriating from Petty's death. He starts using the same lax professionalism as Roy, and encourages the person working undercover for him to keep probing Helen's daughter for information (even it involves him having sex with her) but just not to 'knock her up.'

However, it was revealed in the DC Rebirth mini-series Midnighter and Apollo that Apollo suffered quite a lot of this during his early adolescence (as described in the new, retconned version of his origin story). His father actually threw him outnote (not out on the streets, but he sent him to live with his aunt and didn't speak to him again) when he came out to his parents at the tender age of 12. And when Apollo tried to re-connect with his family after finally managing to escape from the aliens who'd abducted him a year after that and turned him into a copy of Superman over the course of his teenage years, his father still rejected him - now having two reasons to consider his son "not human".

Especially since the Earth Kingdom can be pretty conservative on the subject of homosexuality. Thankfully, it's subverted; Rangi laughs and points out that maybe Kyoshi shouldn't try to kiss her on the side of her face which is heavily bruised from a recent fight.

Pretty much subverted, as other issues come to prominence, and the character is told, bluntly, to get over it. Given an interesting examination, where the character comes to the conclusion "Okay, which would people hate me for more. Being gay, or being a demon. Being gay... crud." Faceâ€“Heel Turn ensues. Downplayed in the release version, where the above Faceâ€“Heel Turn never happens. It is, however, used for a funny moment.

Then word of his sexuality got out and other cops started harassing him by writing slurs on his locker, eventually leading him to quit the force. His situation is even worse in an alternate reality where he never left Mars: the people of his village shun him for his homosexuality and force him to live in the inhospitable wilderness, and they eventually try to kill him by burning down his home, mortally wounding his lover in the process.

She even feels a little hurt when she discovers that Applejack and Rainbow Dash were both straight, even though they've been dead for hundreds of years. She eventually breaks down and asks Homage, who has eyes all over the Wasteland, if she knows of any mare who might be interested in her. Turns out Homage is herself a lesbian, so that works out pretty well.

Gayngst / int_3e783a31	comment	Sense8 has an unusually sophisticated portrayal of this. Lito at first doesn't seem to be conflicted about his sexuality at all, sharing a happy, if secret, relationship with his boyfriend and only being in the closet to be able to have an action movie lead career in conservative, Catholic Mexico. But when plot reasons force him to either let a friend suffer or let a blackmailer publicly out him, it turns out that he does have some internalized homophobia, claiming "I'm not a fag!" when a man ever so gently tries hitting on him in semi-public. He needs a serious talk from a trans woman about "the violence we do to ourselves" to finally accept himself fully (and go kiss the guy who'd come on to him to prove it). Also, one gets the impression that his boyfriend broke up with him not so much because he was going to let their friend marry an abusive man rather than risk getting outed, but because said boyfriend had been quietly suffering being hidden from the public like a dirty secret for years, and the incident finally made him realize that he couldn't bear that any longer. In the second season, after getting outed, the couple suffers public disapproval and negative consequences to their professional careers. Nomi, the lesbian trans woman mentioned above, is in a very happy relationship and surrounds herself with the accepting San Francisco LGBT community, and she doesn't have any internalized trans- or homophobia (anymore - she explains to Lito that she did try very hard to be "normal" as a child / young teenager, until an incident of brutally violent bullying from the boys at her swim club made her give up trying to be like them). But her estranged mother completely refuses to accept her as a woman, she has a very scary run-in with the medical establishment not treating her like a sane adult able to make her own decisions, and the trans-excluding radical feminist "friends" of her girlfriend got pretty nasty towards her during a flashback scene.

To start off with, Jeremy and Ian are both Ambiguously Bi, or simply have a case of If It's You, It's Okay. Jeremy, who seems to be going through a case of Rape and Switch anyway often refers to himself as the "male prostitute of Lynn Forest" and later agonizes over developing a fascination with Ian. Ian, on the other hand, is trying to figure out whether he is in love with Jeremy or if he is like his sadistic, Archnemesis Dad and only lusts after his stepbrother, coupled with the fact that Jeremy is the first boy he's ever been seriously interested in.

On top of the concerns she has over not being human, she also feels awkward about her feelings towards the MC because they're both girls. It's possible to subvert this by maxing out the Social Link, which ends the same way as the male one - with Aigis revealing her Papillon heart and asking the Female MC to touch it; thereby burning the MC's genetic information inside her forever.

Dan Levy (who himself is gay) has said that he has no tolerance for homophobia and made a decision early on that it wouldn't be part of the show. In early episodes, David does have a line about fearing being the victim of a hate crime and Moira is surprised at the town's LGBT presence, but the reveal is that the town is tolerant. Later, as Patrick is seen coming to terms with being gay, he is the opposite of ashamed and is portrayed as happy he has figured out why his relationship with a woman never felt right. Later, when David discovers Patrick has not come out to his parents, the show gives the character a nuanced Coming-Out Story where he addresses his fears that his parents will see him differently. They are accepting, loving, and supportive, but still portrayed as processing the information and somewhat hurt that Patrick didn't tell them earlier.

Russell T Davies, himself gay, has gone on record about not being the biggest fan of this trope, arguing that it in some ways perpetuates gay shame both as something experienced by homosexuals and how it is viewed by non-homosexuals, and also because it can be a bit boring, cliched and stereotypical to watch and write. As such, while most of his works deal with homosexuality and are not entirely free of angst, the characters usually angst about things other than being homosexual.

The scandal thus provoked Martha's intense gayngst, until in the last act she privately comes out to Karenâ€”which immediately segues to a Bury Your Gays Downer Ending when Martha hangs herself. When it was filmed in 1961, things were so repressed that they couldn't even utter the word "lesbian." And yet in the final scene, Karen visits Martha's grave and professes undying love to her... in a scarcely audible voice.

Of course, pretending to do all of this made them feel empty and unable to cope, particularly forcing herself to date people she had no interest in — and constantly worried she would be rejected again. Eventually Yoona comes to the conclusion that it's better to simply never date again because as scared as she is of dating men, going over to the "lesbian side" is equally as frightening to her. Her now-accepting brother sets her up on a lesbian dating site without her knowledge but when a woman hits on her on the street she freaks out and runs away.

Of course, given that this happens in the S-Support, Corrin is quick to shut that down and admits that she feels the same. Rhajat is so overjoyed that she nearly faints. Note: This is only in the Japanese version. In the localization, probably in an attempt to avert the trope, her S-support with Female Corrin is the same as the male one... which ironically weakened the support, as her entire chain was swapped to be the same as the male one.

This, along with the realization of the tragedy between her and Himeko's predecessor, intensifies Chikane's self-hate that she becomes eligible to join Orochi, but she instead concocted a downright crazy plan to make sure Himeko survives by making Himeko kill her, believing that her forbidden love is destined to never be reciprocated. On the contrary, eventually Himeko learns the truth and understands Chikane's anguish, returning her feelings.

The stress from the whole situation caused her to have a miscarriage and Todd had to endure snide comments in the pub and shops, as well as David Platt (his fiancÃ©es brother) spray painting "Queer" on his front door. Sophie Webster and Sian Power are a pair of recently outed lesbians. Claire Peacock outed them in front of the entire street and they ended up running away to get away from gossip. However, Sophie's family were actually quite supportive of them once they adjusted so they don't have too much besides the typical teenage angst. Sean Tully is a notable aversion, probably because the writers have realized that viewers won't actually feel sorry for him if anything bad happens to him.

Gayngst / int_8d7f29ec	comment	Happens quite a bit to Kurt Hummel on Glee. He is constantly bullied for his sexuality, his crush is straight, and at one point someone left a threatening phone call at his dad's business. Subtly, the father is initially uncomfortable, and in "Preggers", you can tell that the father tries punishment by removal on his son to cease his flamboyant dressing. However, this trope is also subverted when Kurt comes out to his macho, sports-loving, mechanic father, and he reveals that he's known since Kurt was three years old ("all [he] wanted for [his] birthday was a pair of sensible heels") and doesn't love him any less for it. And throughout these gayngst plots, Chris Colfer's performance really makes it realistic and heartbreaking. Until the "Never Been Kissed" episode, Kurt has been bearing the bullying. Things are looking up for Kurt Hummel. Though early Season Three has an episode about him realizing his Camp Gay tendencies make him hard to believe as a leading man in a romance, he is now in a stable, healthy, loving relationship with Blaine (who, himself, is cheerful, out and proud, and an overall aversion of this trope). Even Karofsky, the bully who picked on Kurt because of his insecurity with regard to his own sexuality, is now out of the closet and spends time in gay bars where he feels accepted. He's also contrite about the things that he once did to Kurt, apologizing and saying that that isn't who he is anymore. On the other hand, poor Santana. She gets forced out of the closet through a political attack ad (aimed at Sue), and just when she's finally made enough peace with her identity to decide to come out to her grandmother, her grandmother completely rejects her, telling her she'd have been better off keeping her identity as a lesbian a secret forever and disowning her. In the episode "On My Way", Karofsky gets hit with gayngst Laser-Guided Karma full-on. He is outed, gets bullied in his new school, and tries to commit suicide as a result.

The daughter of two career soldiers, when her mother and twin sister were killed during her childhood kidnapping Kate's sole dream was to follow in her parents' footsteps in the army and somehow make a difference. Accepted to the Military Academy at West Point, Kate actually became Cadet Captain and, in the estimation of her instructors, would go on to become a high-ranking, well-respected officer once she graduated...until rumors regarding her sexuality began to circulate around the campus. Army regulations require the discharge of any soldier confirmed to be homosexual, and Kate's refusal to lie about herself resulted in her being "separated" from the army, ending the only dream she has had since she was ten years old. It is only once she sees Batman after a hapless individual attempts to steal her wallet that she sets a new goal for herself, and she still needs to deal with the criticism and rejection of her "family" and "friends" (everyone but her dad) from high-society.

Limyaael finds it particularly annoying if the narrative goes out of its way to make LGBT characters suffer, often losing their lovers far more often than their straight counterparts for instance. Having them kill themselves draws even more ire from her. She even notes that many societies with bisexuality as the norm and complete gender equality do not escape this either. Even then bisexual characters have to struggle.

Though at first she doesn't fully understand why she isn't in love with her boyfriend, she knows that she feels trapped and tries to overdose to escape from a world where being a mentally ill, gay, black girl is basically a life sentence. After meeting her love interest Sheila and realizing that her feelings aren't exactly platonic, she freaks out and throws the girl under the bus out of fear. Eventually, with the help of the other girls in the juvie hall (especially Kitty, a loud and proud transgender girl who has no qualms about who she is), she's able to accept herself and all the parts of her that society doesn't like.

Losing Kawabata and, in his mind, Arikawa to women really hurt him (what he doesn't realize is that Arikawa already broke up with his girlfriend in Chapter 5). Then there's Kawabata, who left Misaki and got a girlfriend because he knew a relationship with an underaged boy was not socially acceptable. In Chapter 11 his true feelings for Misaki come out, and at the end of the chapter, he cancels his and his girlfriend's wedding preparations over the phone. He says he can "think for himself" now.

They sent Eliza away, but unfortunately word still managed to spread, and it soon became well-known in the rumor mill that Alice preferred the company of other women. This all also happened in the shadow of the (real-life) scandal of Oscar Wilde, so Alice fully came to realize how Victorian society looked at same-sex attraction. The knowledge that her sexuality will not only have her bear the ire of society but also affect her family and their reputation is what drives her to the despair of asking Hanako to become her accomplice and kill her.

She also eventually gets better and starts a relationship with Taylor, who is fine with it being kept secret. Chloe seems comfortable with her sexuality in the present of the fic, but she admits to having slept with several guys in the past in an attempt to "fix" herself, though that was also partially an attempt to specifically get rid of her (at the time apparently unrequited) crush on her best friend.

She spent the next couple of chapters quietly terrified that Melly (who was well aware she slept around a fair bit before turning out to be somewhat of a xenophile), let alone the other villagers who were convinced she was a "Good Girl", would turn on her in an instant if they even had a hint of such desires.

His most shameful memory is of his crush smiling at him. The shame leads him to ask Brona to Ret-Gone him. Once he escapes from the Asylum and undoes the retcon, he finally works up the nerve to come out to his parents, who react as expected, forcing him to live with his aunt for a while. However, they eventually adjust, and he moves back in with them.

Gayngst / int_b3aba9af	comment	David from Six Feet Under has a really hard time with the fact that he is gay for almost the entire first season. It's mostly religious gayngst; David is a devout Episcopalian who believes (at least during most of the first season) that homosexuality is a sin and struggles intensely with reconciling his faith with being gay. The problem comes to a head about three-quarters through the first season when David has to prepare the body of a young gay man who was beaten to death by a group of homophobes. During this particular episode, David does not have gayngst so much as a total emotional breakdown. After he breaks up with Keith for the first time, David's main story arc involves him slowly reconciling his homosexuality with his religious faith. He slowly gets better throughout the series. Once he's reconciled his homosexuality and religious beliefs, he still angsts a little about coming out, but most of his anxiety comes from other sources, like the business and his various fights and break-ups with Keith (which is more about personality differences and communication problems between the two men rather than the fact they are both gay). Also one of the few cases in which the gay character does get a happy ending. He ultimately ends up with Keith, they adopt two boys, and the Fisher & Sons company is implied to have gone to his children rather than Nate's daughters. Although the finale reveals that Keith dies many years before David, they spend over twenty years together raising their family before it happens. Averted with Keith, who has virtually no gayngst, although he usually doesn't argue when his father refuses to acknowledge David as his life partner. This is probably more to do with a history of abuse than gayngst. Also, Keith states that one reason he was attracted to David was that Dave didn't typecast him as (to borrow Claire's words) the "big black sex cop" but instead treated him as an individual. Given Keith's appearance, mannerisms, and job description, he'd likely have similar problems if his dating pool consisted primarily of white women. Given that in TV Land, All Men Are Perverts and All Gays are Promiscuous, this might be a bigger problem because Keith happens to be gay, but it isn't necessarily so.

Obi-Wan Kenobi is a closeted bisexual here, and he experienced severe bullying at the orphanage where he grew up as a result. He spends a good part of the story trying desperately to convince himself that Cody, another man, couldn't possibly want a degenerate like him, and part of the reason why he's so isolated is because he's afraid someone will find out and report him to the authorities, and get involuntarily committed to a Bedlam House. It causes problems later when someone from town uncharacteristically comes out to check on Obi-Wan and overhears Obi-Wan and Cody through the cabin's thin walls, and he gets driven out of town after Cody's departure.

Gayngst / int_be245531	comment	This is a frequent and longstanding part of Renee Montoya's character, starting from when she was first outed in Gotham Central. A police officer, Renee already had extensive personal issues due to being an honest Hispanic woman in a primarily male, primarily white, completely corrupt police department. When Two-Face outed her to friends and family her captain, Maggie Sawyer (an open lesbian), attempted to help her deal with the issues that arise in this situation. Unfortunately, as Renee rather vehemently points out, their situations are nothing alike, as Maggie did not already have racial and gender baggage to deal with, and she was from Metropolis, not Gotham, and the differences between the two societies run deeper than just the different operating hours of their heroes. Combined with other factors, (including the normal drama and angst that comes with being a police officer) Renee eventually descends into alcoholism and serious contemplations of suicide while she bounces from one-night-stand to one-night-stand. She gets better, eventually, but some comics have her relationships plagued with conflict and drama. This cocktail of angst and social trauma about her own identity eventually helps shape her own career as a masked vigilante.

There's also a scene in which Yuu worries about what sort of rumors will spread if people find out that Touko kissed her, and so asks Maki, who witnessed it, not to tell anyone. Subverted with Touko.

He began killing gay tourists and stealing their identities, so he could live their seemingly carefree lives. Another episode "Broken". The killer had been sent to a "straight camp" where he was tortured and brainwashed similar to A Clockwork Orange. He started killing men he slept with out of anger at his "vile urges", While also killing any women he "tried" to sleep with when they failed to arouse him like he felt they should.

Hime experiences self-hate because she believes her continued crush on Akira (her best friend who is in the process of transitioning to female) means she doesn't see her as a girl. Yukka assures her that isn't the case. Yukka was a popular girl on the track team and many girls displayed crush-like towards her, but it was simply fangirlism rather than actual love. When Yukka was Forced Out of the Closet after a Love Confession towards a straight peer, her teammates began acting cold and homophobic. Yukka quit the team but decided to be how she wants, not what others want.

Already a fiercely private person, she became so terrified of anyone finding out about her lesbian relationship with psychiatrist Kim Legaspi that she would barely even speak to the woman when they were at work, and when Kim was accused of sexual harassment, pretty much ditched her in order to keep their relationship secret. She did a similar thing with her next girlfriend, running and hiding to avoid being seen by her coworkers while out on a date, but the woman shows up at the hospital and forcibly kisses her in front of everyone, outing her, and putting an end to her timidity.

He claims that he's diminishing their friendship by looking at Kyousuke in those terms, and asks forgiveness from the god of friendship for being attracted to him. Though, oddly, Riki seems to be the only one bothered by this - none of the other characters ever seem concerned at all about saying ambiguously queer things (or overtly queer things, in Kurugaya's case), and while jokes abound, nobody ever acts like it'd be bad if Riki and Kyousuke dated.

Gayngst / int_e293455a	comment	Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow Rosenberg is a pretty downplayed example since there is never really a big coming-out episode, and they probably skated around having the obligatory drama by having people know about it at the end of the season so most of it presumably takes place offscreen during the gap between seasons. Although Willow does feel the need to declare her sexuality every few episodes. Spike manages to bring out a little gayngst in Willow during "The Yoko Factor" but that fades quickly. Larry suffers a little before coming out of the closet but by the time it's mentioned again, he's out and quite happy about it. Tara probably fits this trope. She's rather insecure and worries that Willow will leave her for a guy. And she seems to have this a lot in the episode where her abusive family arrives in town, though a lot of it is metaphorical.

Misha also implies that she was bullied for being gay in the past. This is what also leads to the bad ending in Shizune's path— Misha eventually loses it and attempts to seduce Hisao before her homosexuality is revealed out of jealousy. Giving into it results in a Fan Disservice scene (since she isn't taking any pleasure from the act) that blows Shizune's trust issues wide open and causes her to sink into a pit of utter self-loathing that lasts for the rest of the game. Thankfully, Misha realizes how selfish she's being in both possible routes. An earlier version of the route takes it in a different direction. It's revealed that Misha was horribly bullied for being gay and that's why she came to the school despite not having any disabilities. Wanting to be a sign language teacher was something she thought of after meeting Shizune. Misha became increasingly depressed over the course of Shizune's route and this ultimately led to her letting herself get hit by a car.

Gayngst / int_fc5f1564	comment	Being set in 1989, the Jem fic The Ripple Effect has this with Danse. She's out to her father and her girlfriend Video is out to her family as well, but they otherwise keep mum about their relationship. Early in their relationship, Danse was insecure and tried going out with a man, but she loved Video more. All was fine until she came out to her mother, who had a fit and all-but disowned her. In the end, Danse calls out her mother about her prejudices.

Gayngst / int_fd48231e	comment	Fellow Travelers: Tim Laughlin, who's Catholic, is pretty torn about being gay and acting on his sexuality. He wavers between abandoning Catholicism as it feels right to be with his male lover, then later confessing what he did while claiming he's truly become repentant. His guilt and shame over his love (and lust) for Hawkins Fuller worsens after he enters seminary.

Gayngst / int_fda9c8b	comment	Thomas Barrow from Downton Abbey. Justified in that it's the 1910s in Britain and homosexuality is illegal. Also averted many times, when he openly flirts with men and the worst he receives is a disgusted rejection and even managed to have a relationship/affair with the Duke of Crowborough. The only time he is threatened by a scandal is after attempting an unwanted kiss on the new footman Jimmy while he was sleeping, and even then, almost the whole household (including Robert) defends him. Later, in an attempt to "cure" himself, he spends a lot of money on a crackpot treatment involving electroshock therapy and drugs, which, naturally, do absolutely nothing but make him sick. When he finally goes to Dr. Clarkson, the doctor doesn't dance around the issue and tells Thomas straight-up that there's no medical cure for what he is.

Gayngst / int_fe512db9	comment	Besties: Nedjma is deeply troubled and struggles because of her feelings for Zina, admitting to Zina that she feels like there are now "several pieces of [her]" and that her heart feels "like a jackhammer". To her, lesbianism is especially not compatible with the image of "tough girl" she wants to give off as part of her gang (even after her gang rejects her), and she rapidly gets mockeries once word gets out.
