Bury Your Gays: basically the thought that LGBT characters aren't allowed (or deserve) a happy-ever-after. Which leads to the show/book/game/etc killing them off. Thought to have been built off (or taken from) the Dead Lesbian Trope. (c)
the O.C., Jennifer's Body, Atomic Blonde, Glee and Game of Thrones. just fyi.
Marissa Cooper from The O.C.
The article mentions she dated a woman called Alex in season 2, but it was very under-developed or badly written (surprise). A lot of people online have debated whether it was a "phase" or something not explored by the show? idk. Anyway, we all remember her dying at the end of season 3.
Jennifer Check and Anita Lesnicki from Jennifer’s Body
Needy is hinted to have a crush on Jennifer. Jennifer, as a succubus, makes out with her. She is also killed by Needy.
Lorraine Broughton from Atomic Blonde
Lorraine begins a relationship with French agent Delphine, who is brutally murdered to advance the plot. Fridging, but make it woke.
Brittany S. Pierce from Glee
She doesn't die lol. She deals with a lot of internalised hate though. Also, the lesbian and bi female characters (like the other minorities) were treated badly on Glee. shock. check out the source for more.
Oberyn Martell from Game of Thrones
Basically, he loved sex with everyone and being impulsive. There is a bit more to his character, but this is how he is introduced in the show (i think? icr lmao). He is killed after only one season.
check the rest out at the source for more detail.
