That wasn't really my point. My point is that developers shouldn't feel forced to make all male (or some female) characters that are ''normally acceptable''. It's quite hard to explain really. I'm just all for freedom of speech, etc and that's why I support this. Not to be ''hip'' or ''socially modern'', but to make a statement. Even though it's 2015, many people are still struggling with their sexual orientation and putting things like this out there in the ever more growing influencial media is good. I'm not saying it'll help that much, but it's good to see developers not being afraid to do something different.

I agree. I don't think there should be any bounderies. As an artist, you should feel free to make what you want and express it. I think the results of having gay people in media isn't going to show for a decade or two. When the under 10 croud out there grows up having lived in a world where being gay is not different than just being different, and not evil, possitive things are going to happen as a whole.

Isnt going to show for a decade or two? Gays are all over the media.

I meant the AFFECTS of having gay people viewed as something that isn't evil or bad. I think it's going to take at least a decade to see the pay off since people who are 30 and over grew up in a time when it was something bad. Hate is something that most people carry with them. It's not often that someone is intelligent enough to view hate, and have some epiphany and change. So it's going to take the youngest ones growing up in a society that is accepting of gay people in order for us to really see a huge change. (no more millions of idiot bigots proudly standing in lines, buying chicken so the world knows they're hateful etc.)
