I think we could get more complex characters if they didn't focus so much on who they're sleeping with, it feels like cheap narrative. It could be better if said characters were more human and other traits were more evident.
If their drive was something more significant then a character's essence would be solid and it wouldn't matter if they were men or women, straight or gay. That would be a real progression and a departure from the same old structure that comic books need to stay away from if the industry wants to be taken more seriously as a mature form of entertaintment.
