I love The Golden Girls.

Ya’ll don’t have any idea how fucking brave and needed these plot lines were.

This was before Ellen came out.

This was before civil unions.

This was before Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

This was when your ass could be fired, blacklisted, and shunned with no legal protections for even being hinted at being gay.

And the Golden Girls said “Fuck you, Fuck this, we’re doing it anyway.”

I think it should be noted that Blanche’s quote about AIDS is also “It is not god punishing people for their sins” and that the episode also deals with slutshaming.

I don’t know if people realize how much activism these women did for gay right and during the aids crisis. If you think about it they were all long established in Hollywood and Broadway. They had tons of friends personally affected and dealing with the aids crisis. Estelle Getty lost a nephew. I think they helped plant seeds in people who watched Golden Girls that helped make things a little more normalized and mainstream.

I just want to clarify, because to those who don’t know the history, it could seem out of place: Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell was landmark legislation. The community fought hard for Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

Maybe that can give you some small insight to how completely different the attitude was in the late 80′s, that being allowed to hide was considered a huge win. It truly was.

So the fact that this group of women, each powerhouses of media in their own respect, extremely recognizable and with everything to lose, stood together and said, “Hey. They are here. They are people. They deserve marital rights, friendship, and understanding.” was a Very. Bold. Move.
