"Maureen Johnson" from Rent the Movie
Rent the Movie is very similar to Rent on Broadway. It is a movie about a group of friends that each have their own problems, whether it be alcohol, drugs or sexually transmitted diseases. Maureen Johnson is a Caucasian bisexual performance artist. She dated a guy named Mark until she left him for an African American woman, named Joanne. Maureen is a notorious flirt, which causes Joanne to not trust her. They break up and get back together at the end of the movie.
Maureen is another example of Mike Swift's survey because she had been involved in previous heterosexual relationships. Despite this, I think that Maureen would be a somewhat decent role model for lesbians or bisexual women to look up to. Although she has been a cheater in the past, she seems really faithful to Joanne. She is open about her love for Joanne and she is not embarrassed to show public display of affection. Gay and bisexual women will be inspired by Maureen's fearless nature. I think that, because Maureen is a successful and happy woman, homosexual women will realize that they can, also, have it all. You don't have to hide your true identity to have a successful career.
