Agreed complete.  Too bad in the books he is dead.

I did not really need that spoiler. I hope that does not happen in the TV series.

If it were going to happen the way it did in the books, it would have happened at the very beginning of Season 2.  He's most likely safe.

I'm downright impressed by the amount of responses. I think this is the first time ever these boards surprise me in a good way.

He should have died in the end of the first season, if the series had been completely faithful to the novels. But the character is too good to disgard, I doubt it will happen now.

There was this police officer in 'Six Feet Under.' It's been a while and I didn't follow the series regularly, but he was gay and pretty tough.

David's boyfriend?

Just extremely heavy subtext indicating he wants to eat Big Boss's snake, if you know what I mean. Also, this.

There was that one henchman guy from LOST. Not sure I'd call him "tough", but there wasn't anything stereotypical about him.

Tom Friendly? If so, he was pretty awesome.

Lafayette from True Blood

He is my favorite character from that show! He seems to be more integral to the plot this season, so I'm happy. 

Someone already mentioned Jack Harkness from Torchwood/Doctor Who; he's awesome! 

No one has mentioned the gladiator Barca from Spartacus. That makes me sad. 

[DrBobcat]

If the LotSB vids are anything to go on, I'd say Preitor Gavorn definitely qualifies as a badass.

Whether he's actually gay is unclear. We can only speculate at this point. Still, my fingers are crossed.

Omar Little from The Wire and Kale Ingram from Rubicon.

That was book two.  True Blood is in book four and beyond in some of the info.  He was the body in Det. Andy Belfleur's car.  In the show it was Ms. Jeanette.  Or how ever you spell her name.

No, he would have died at the beginning of season two.  The end of season one was the beginning of book two.  I'm reading book eleven right now.

Barca from Spartacus.

Dang, I forgot all about Omar from The Wire. Loved that show.

Thanks. I've yet to read them myself, obviously.

The books are very different from the show.  If you are interested in learning more, just shoot me a PM and I will explain.  I think the books are better than the show to be quite honest and Alan Ball has ticked me off on some of the changes he made.  Harris, herself, is happy with most of it, 90% I think she said, but I've been wondering what 10% she is unhappy with.

If books are fair game, in the mass effect books, there is a tough as nails biotic marine named Hendel Mitra who is gay.

One more voice for Omar Little.
Kima Greggs from "The Wire"
Diana Barrigan from "White Collar" is waaaay badass, I agree.
Lisbeth Salander from "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is bisexual.
Tara from "True Blood" is bisexual too... Lafayette was mentioned already, and anyone who says Eric Northman did not have romantic feelings for his very male sire is... fooling himself. Eric's progeny Pamela is a unique brand of Badass Lesbian who wears pink heels.
13 from "House" is bisexual, and although it's sometimes handled badly, she is still a strong character.
Also, if we go gay-targeted media, Brian Kinney gets more tail than any of typical macho heroes, and Emmet Honeycutt is a flaming queen to end all flaming queens and proud of it - in real life it's as badass as you get, honestly.

That said, I really hope no one tries to make "gay" into the "defining characteristic of a character". The point of all of this equality stuff is for people to realize that being gay doesn't define one's character: it only defines who you have relationship with.
