In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, the cubs turn on the TV and get into a discussion about bears in the media today. The guys ponder the question about bear representation in films, TV and more and how it has changed over the years. Are there still stigmas about hirsute chubby men or have we become “mainstream”? Tune in as the cubs share their feelings on the subject while waxing nostalgia about bearish actors of yore.
Show Topic
Bears in Entertainment Media Today
Given the changes in the media landscape over the past decades, is there any bear representation today? Do we continue to see fatphobia in the entertainment media, especially when it comes to men regardless of their self-identified sexual orientation? Has the bear community peaked in the media as the broader LGBTQ+ family continues integrating into the broader world society?

Re: COL562: What is. . . Pleasure? – TheNaishproductions. To some extent Cellphones are glorified portable dopamine dispensers. Not convinced people actually use them as a communication device or more for the narcissistic posting of Food, i’m here & you’re not and the ever impressive “Best Night Everrrrrr!!!” photos.
Re: COL562: What is. . . Pleasure? – Oan R. – Was the self-harm road really the best way to go about talking about pain and pleasure? That was a bit triggering. Edit: I don’t know, maybe I was hearing that wrong.
Re: COL562: What is. . . Pleasure? – Oan R. –About the mask thing: for autistics, sensory issues come into play. Although I haven’t had any issues myself, there are people who have had issues.

Urbandictionary.com
gay crashing (phrase): for a heterosexual to enter an LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans) event such as a Pride parade or festival. Coined by Natasha Bedingfield in an interview about Milwaukee’s Pridefest in Summer of 2008, referring to gate crashing, but the interviewer heard “gate” as “gay,” which was equally appropriate.
