Since the 1990s, slurs have become less common as direct homophobia became less accepted. As the writer Rae Alexandra pointed out in 2017, homophobic slurs were common in the 1980s. Movies many now consider classics of the era, including Teen Wolf, Footloose, Pretty in Pink, The Monster Squad, and Heathers, all contain derogatory terms for gays. In a takedown of the film, Variety’s Steven Gaydos’ noted in 1994 that the “third-act payoff that takes the film’s generally inoffensive tastelessness into a particularly brutal and unpleasant stew of homophobia and misogyny.” In a more positive review, the Washington Post’s Desson Howe writes, “There are some unfortunate elements that were unnecessary-a big strain of homophobic jokes for one…”Įxplicit homophobia wasn’t rare in mainstream Hollywood at the time. Of 11 mainstream reviews published at the time, most of which were negative, only two mention the movie’s bigotry.
