All women: analysis of the LTBI+ woman in Spanish original subscription streaming TV series

Abstract

This paper focuses on the results of research into how LTBI+ women are represented in Spanish original fiction series broadcast on streaming platforms. Analyzing the content of 749 characters shows a slight under-representation of non-heterosexual orientations, a greater representation of GTBI+ men than LTBI+ women, and no trans male or non-binary characters. Finally, stereotypical female traits are accentuated in LTBI+ characters compared to cis-heterosexual women.
