In a consistently positive or celebratory light
1. Does the green sentence mean "homosexual relationships probably have as much difficulties and suffering as heterosexual relationships"?
2. Does the red sentence want to say "He therefore does not simply represent gay life and identity as a kind of life full of joy and pleasure, but also represents its difficulties"?
Context:
As others have also pointed out, one implication of Fassbinder’s queer films, and of his own life as an artist, is that gay desire and relationships may also bring the suffering of heterosexual ones. He therefore does not cast gay identity in a consistently positive or celebratory light.
