Nothing she said indicated that; she only objected to throwaway characters for the sake of gayness. Joel Send a noteboard - 14/01/2013 06:01:36 PM
Pitiable, yes, but hilarious. Welcome to the 21st century. I advise you get used to it.

And of course, there's the fact that showing gay men establishes quite clearly that homosexuality in both sexes is a recognized phenomenon in the Westlands.

It reeked of tokenism, man. "Oh, btw, we have never seen the Kandori queens foremost general before, but he will not marry her, because he prefers guys." Same with the two unturned Asha'man traveling with Pevar and Androl: "Btw, only Jonneth will be bonded, because Emarin prefers guys." Um... OK... why are you telling me this? Which of us is fixated on homosexuality again? There is no strong personal bond or long personal history between two characters to explain with a homosexual relationship, no jilted former lover resenting a past paramour or infiltration by seduction, just "LOOK, LOOK, GRATUITOUS GAY DUDE111" So? Who cares? I thought the whole point was that sexuality is irrelevant to anyone but sex partners?

Just like the Sea Folk having dark skin is tokenism. *NM* - 15/01/2013 07:33:15 AM 428 Views
