No one was referring to Lady Dynamite, WARNING or gay men being flamboyant. My initial comment was about how she often (not always) made Timmy look like a freak by making him wearing diapers for example. I don't see how wearing diapers while being half naked has anything to do with being an effeminate gay man. Not to mention that I'm not a fan of in your face masculine men and don't expect anyone to act like heterosexual men (whatever that means anyway).
There were some tabloids as well as trashy news on the internet showing Timmy in some of his more ridiculous outfits (which he himself stated he didn't really like wearing). Therefore, that is what the general public will remember about Ayu "promoting" gay rights, they probably don't even know she had a a show at Tokyo Pride, let alone that anyone watched the PV of WARNING. And I honestly can't blame people for thinking "wtf" when seeing Timmy in diapers. I mean, how you can make a friend wear something like this and some other stuff, who himself stated he didn't like wearing it, and embarrasse him like that, is beyond me. What Ayu did here and what failed hard was trying to get some attention for promoting Timmy as the freaky gay gaijin. You have to keep in mind that Japanese people love to show their "gaijin friends" because it's "cool" and I myself was often paraded around like a circus animal by some people and it often seemed to me Ayu was doing the exact same thing with Timmy. If you ask me, parading your gay friend from London around is the opposit of promoting gay rights.
