Mayans M.C. (2018)

Mayans M.C. features LGBTQ+ characters, including a trans woman and a lesbian. While one character's arc involves a tragic end and initial secrecy, their identity is not a source of mockery. Another character's lesbian identity is accepted by her family. The portrayals are complex, avoiding strong positive or negative arcs directly tied to their queer identity, aligning with the show's overall dark tone.

The show portrays Catholicism as a deeply ingrained cultural and spiritual element for many characters, particularly those of Mexican descent. While individual characters may exhibit hypocrisy or struggle with their faith amidst violent lives, the narrative itself treats the religion and its iconography with a degree of respect, acknowledging its role in their heritage and personal struggles rather than condemning the faith as inherently negative.
