#wuth the partial exception of 13

[loki-zen]

Interesting window into the varieties of homo & biphobia of 2000s US TV the way House has a gay male patient early on - who is definitely believably a Type of Gay Guy you have met - but is still (as of season 5) to ever depict a gay male couple.

Meanwhile, "two women" is not that uncommon a kind of couple to exist (although never in the main cast - even when there is an out bisexual woman in the main cast, she can only have a real relationship with a man!), but it is always, always two Straight Chicks out of central casting, styled and made up and played exactly like every other woman on the show - that they're meant to be in a relationship with each other is literally the only gay thing about them.
