Homophobic Hate Crime | comment |
There are people who think that being LGBT+ is wrong, but not just wrong enough to avoid these people. No, they believe they must take it upon themselves to punish and harm gay people, or even try to wipe them off the face of the Earth. A way to create drama is to take a character from your show and put them in one of these two roles: bigot or gay. Then create or define another character in the other role, and set them at each other. It almost writes itself. A typical — if somewhat outdated — story used for main characters who are styled to be homophobic is to explore how they and others respond to such hateful actions carried out. A similarly typical but much less historical story for gay characters is if they can recover from the trauma, being one in a short list of gay-tailored plots that are often the only things handed out to gay characters. If you're looking to Bury Your Gays in a way that actually takes all the attention and fallout away from the LGBT+ character, this is a great way to instead launch into a police investigation or some tract on how homophobia in general is wrong, or how the act of violence is responded to by all the straight characters. Fear of or recovery from this kind of incident is often a source of Gayngst. Note that it can also happen to characters who are only Mistaken for Gay. Sub-Trope to Hate Crimes Are a Special Kind of Evil. Compare Rape and Switch, specifically the idea of "corrective rape". See also the Heteronormative Crusader and the Armored Closet Gay. When this gets out-of-hand and becomes ingrained into society, you may be looking at people who see it as a Final Solution.note Such as the Trope Namers themselves. It can overlap with Disposable Sex Worker, from the trope of queer folk and particularly trans women who are often depicted as sex workers and punished for this. Also remember, this trope only applies if bigotry was a motivating factor in the commission of the crime; this does not apply to any and all violent crime against a member of a sexual minority. If the perpetrator is Equal-Opportunity Evil or Hates Everyone Equally, they probably don't count. |

Watchmen: In the Backstory, Watchmen member Silhouette was outed as lesbian and thrown out of the group (which apparently ran on a version of "don't ask, don't tell", as at least two other members were believed to be gay but nobody said anything), then murdered along with her lover for being gay. This is briefly shown in the film's opening montage. | |

In one Homicide: Life on the Street episode, Pembleton and Bayliss work the case of a man who was beaten by skinheads outside a gay bar and died soon after. One of the grimmer aspects of the case is that the victim's father is visibly more upset by his son being gay than being murdered. As it turns out, the victim was straight but not homophobic, and was just meeting friends near the club. | |

The Handmaid's Tale: Systematic in Gilead. LGBT people are called "gender traitors" and can be executed, with the exception of those women who are fertile, in which case they become Handmaids. However, when lesbian Handmaids have affairs with other women, they may suffer clitoridectomy as punishment. Even prior to this, such crimes rose with the Sons of Jacob's upsergence, as a gay professor was murdered with the same label of "gender traitor" on a placard around his neck. While on the run June also comes across a ghost town with the same graffitied on homes and businesses of LGBT people near broken windows. | |

Rafiki: Kena and Ziki are beated up by homophobes once they get outed as being lesbians. It's also mentioned earlier that LGBT+ people in Kenya are frequently victims of these, such as corrective rape with queer women (although they thankfully escape this), and murder too. | |

Crusader Kings III features religious doctrines, and the majority of the religions in the game have the doctrine on homosexuality set to "shunned". This means that a character who is Forced Out of the Closet faces discrimination from their peers and loss of face from the general public. In religions where said doctrine is set to "criminal" the above-mentioned character could be arrested by their liege. | |

Some episodes in the Law & Order franchise follow this trope. Notably one episode of SVU had a gay man raping and in one instance causing the death of other gay men who could pass as straight when he himself could not. In another episode a man is believed to have killed his boyfriend, but it's later revealed he's Taking the Heat for his academic homophobe father. The father, once it's known he did commit the crime, tries to argue he was protecting his son from being raped, but is eventually pushed into admitting he knew his son was gay and having consensual sex, and really did kill the other man out of hate. |

There's also Todd, a bully at school who often beat up Rudy for being openly gay (to the point of breaking one of his ribs on at least on occasion) and tried to attack Chanel for being a lesbian (and was only stopped by Maria, who got expelled while Todd suffered no punishment). | |

Due to this, he grew paranoid and resentful toward people. When the strangers come to the cabin, he at first suspects it's because of him and Eric. This turns out to not be true, though one of them is the same man who'd attacked him. | |

Downplayed in Kanojo ni Naritai Kimi to Boku. Akira gets teased by her classmates and mocked for being "gay" behind her back. To deal with this, her Childhood Friend Hime starts wearing a male uniform to make Akira feel less alone. It backfires a bit because it's considered crossdressing (though Hime is still allowed to wear the uniform). | |

Behzat Ç.: In one episode, the team investigates a series of crimes targeting transgender women, who are snatched off the street at night, beaten by their abductors, then left for dead on the side of the road. A third-season episode of the series features the murder of a gay woman by a male Abhorrent Admirer, who kills her after she repeatedly rejects his advances (she already has a girlfriend) and his "generous" offer to "fix" her by paying for conversion therapy. |

In Beautiful Music for Ugly Children, trans boy Gabe is threatened online by two men who go by Jason and Scream. The two also harass and assault him in person, wearing the same masks as their namesakes. The two also target his friends — they go to Paige's workplace to push her and make death threats. They crash an Ugly Children Brigade gathering, where Scream hits John with a baseball bat, putting him in a coma for a week. They turn out to be Gabe's former classmates, Paul Willard and Kyle Marshall. Paul wants revenge on Gabe because his girlfriend, Heather Graves, has been flirting with Gabe over text. Heather changes boyfriends every few months, but Paul seems to be especially upset that she liked a trans guy more than him. | |

Wandering Son: Subverted. In another manga by Takako Shimura, Yuki mentions to a man that one of her friends was killed by her boyfriend when he learned she was transgender. Both several in-series and real life years later, this is brought up in Wandering Son. It turns out the woman is fine and is the "mama" of a gay bar, which Nitori begins working at because she doesn't know where else to find a job that will let her dress as a female. The woman is offended that Yuki would spread lies about her (and that she called her "ugly"). Downplayed. Throughout the series, Nitori receives homophobic and transphobic bullying. Mako, Takatsuki, and Yuki (as a child) also receive some. |

The infamous gang assault on openly gay Adrian Mellon in It, set in 1985 (which of course, leads to Monster Clown Pennywise getting him). Author Stephen King has gone on record saying it was directly inspired by a Real Life homophobic hate crime in 1984.note This was the murder of Charlie Howard, a young gay man, in Bangor, Maine. He was thrown off a bridge by three homophobes, similarly to the events in the book, and drowned. King comes from Maine, and presumably heard about it at the time. | |

Blood of the Tribades: The priests kill two women in the lake who are nude and splashing each other. Although not explicitly a couple, it's really clear the mere suspicion they are is the motive. Later Élisabeth and Fantine, a lesbian couple, are discovered together by them. They're murdered as a result too. Even the film title references it: "tribade" is an old term for lesbian. | |

In The Sopranos, the murder of Vito Spatafore by Phil Leotardo and his men was motivated by Leotardo's homophobia and the homophobic culture of the Sicilian mafia in general. This one's especially wrenching because of the cold-blooded way the whacking is carried out and the look on poor Vito's face when he realizes that he is going to die, and it is easily Leotardo's vilest moment. The Sopranos were also seriously contemplating murdering Vito (who was one of their captains) for his transgressions, but Tony was hesitant to do so because Vito was a good earner. He eventually relents because Phil kept pressing the issue and reluctantly puts a hit out on Vito. Phil's men just beat them to the punch, although Tony and his men would not have gone the extra mile of torturing Vito and desecrating his body. This murder deepens the wedge between the Lupertazzis and the Sopranos because killing a made guy of another Family without an ok from the Boss is a big no-no. | |
