Part 4/6:
In an interview with Harley Bizar, Ker expressed personal opinions about the storyline's exclusion and broader themes of gender representation in entertainment. She admitted that the original plotline, involving her character's non-binary child and the difficulty Lori faced in using their preferred pronouns, was "very interesting" from a storytelling perspective.
But her personal view diverged sharply: she found the idea of such a storyline "annoying" and expressed a preference against portraying gender identity struggles in entertainment. This candid remark provides insight into the ongoing societal debates surrounding LGBTQ+ representation on television and the varying opinions among viewers and creators.
