LGBT makes up only 2% of the population. If you wanted accurate representation true to real world numbers, why would you also expect to see LGBT couples literally everywhere in media when they are such a small minority?
Moreover, why do people care so much about who people are sexually attracted to? Itâs definitely not a normal personality trait to be so interested in other peoples sexuality and private affairs. Perhaps you need to go outside more instead of living on Twitter.
Then, itâs not lore. Nothing ever indicated the Soldier was straight other than people assuming he is by default since his homosexuality wasnât explicitly stated the moment the character was first revealed. When a straight character gets into a relationship without it being explicitly stated heâs straight beforehand, you donât say theyâve âsuddenly turned them straightâ. Why cannot homosexual characters get the same treatment?
The cool thing about your final point is it applies directly to those who seem adamant that representations of diverse sexuality stay out of media.
I mean why be so preoccupied with what other people do with their genitals? Thatâs pretty irregular as you said. So why not just leave the matter be?
Itâs above 5% actually and if you want to count bisexuals and all the people hiding their sexuality because of shame or because of their country it can go up to almost 10%
No one has ever said that. Read the thread, this is about people freaking out because of just 1 gay couple.
Additionally letâs consider the people who suffer with diseases and disabilities that affect 2% or less or the population and just stop researching any kind of treatment or support for them, and stop adjusting to them at work. After all theyâre only a minority. Interesting logic.
Whereâs the magic number, 5%, 10% maybe? Does it vary based upon population size? Iâd love to hear the logic behind this viewpoint.
That 1 gay couple will multiply to 50-100 in a few years if we donât speak against it, I can bet on it let me watch some netflix and get brainwashed now so that I can turn into a civilized person.
Also âIâm not homophobic because I have gay friendsâ - ââŠif we donât speak out against it.â You sure about that? Wierd thing for someone totally cool with homosexuality to say.
Yes and everyone was saying that legalizing gay marriage leads to marrying animals and children. Sweden had civil marriage since 1995, thatâs 25 years and I dont think that swedes can now marry animals and children.
Iâm talking about keeping it under control, I said a few representation is okay but actually why do people care so much about it though⊠If we didnât have female-male relationships in the game I donât think there would be an outrage. Most of them are already extremely shallow relationships. Do we riot here? âMuh female-male representations are terribly bad, we riotâ etc.
âA few representations are okayâ
And
âThat 1 gay couple will multiply to 50-100 in a few years if we donât speak against itâ
Seems like a backpeddle to me. You canât be okay with a few representations whilst arguing even one needs to be blocked to prevent it âspreadingâ lol.
So how many gay couples are we allowed before itâs âIts out of controlâ?
