I don't think it's fair to say she mis-represents the gay community. The first point -and probably most important for me- is the one that was just made above: not every gay is flamboyant or covered in leather harnesses but not accepting that side of the community is a form of homophobia for me.
But also, she has ACTUALLY done so much for the community I can't believe people are stuck with Lady Dynamite and WARNING.
Wasn't hbya the first on-screen gay kiss in a Japanese MV ever? She gave a free concert during Tokyo Pride. She voiced her support on social media. She hired an openly trans dancer back in her troupe. The only think the lady hasn't done is date a girl at this point!
I never thought her ties to the gay community was the reason Japan had lost interest in her to be honest, but if it is, good on her!
