I'm gay and I found it offensive and ignorant. eucatastrophe Send a noteboard - 17/01/2013 05:47:58 PM
I'm gay, wasn't offended and didn't think what you'd written was in the slightest bit bigoted


Yeah, would have been nice to see it earlier but so what that it's in now? Why does it have to be a fucking ~*~plot point~*~? Can't a character be gay?

This is akin to white privilege; it's so goddamn ingrained in people possessing the privilege that they don't stop to think that their world view might, just might, be lacking. The concept of "tokenism" is horseshit.

That you're offended at gay people for having the temerity to exist is hilarious. Ghavrel - 13/01/2013 12:15:48 PM 973 Views
Nothing she said indicated that; she only objected to throwaway characters for the sake of gayness. Joel - 14/01/2013 06:01:36 PM 847 Views
Just like the Sea Folk having dark skin is tokenism. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/01/2013 07:33:15 AM 421 Views

That you jump to the conclusion that I'm offended by gay characters is both laugable and sad... lilltempest - 14/01/2013 06:06:30 PM 861 Views

You're reaction does come across as knee-jerk. *NM* IndigoAjah - 15/01/2013 09:12:03 PM 391 Views

Narishma would've been perfect, and would've made sense... lilltempest - 14/01/2013 06:50:32 PM 846 Views

Culture plays a role in how people see homosexuals, not in there being homosexuals darius_sedai - 15/01/2013 10:50:14 PM 871 Views
I didn't say anything about that. I said that culture plays a role in determining sexual expression. Ghavrel - 16/01/2013 02:17:45 AM 816 Views
I think we will have to agree to disagree ... People are born the way they are darius_sedai - 16/01/2013 04:21:33 AM 806 Views
