There is no problem. The problem is people saying they should have one for the sake of having one. To me those stories feel unnatrual, like it has been written around a person not person fit for it. Look at GoT for example, it has everything in it, midgets, gays/bi, coloured people. However the story fits, it flows naturally. At no point it feels like they included someone for the sake of someone. Guess what we don't have supposed homophobes and biggots of VGChartz attacking the show for including minorities. You know why? because no one cares when done right. As the old Nike slogan goes "JUST DO IT" , don't tell us you WILL FIND A WAY TO DO IT TO CATER TO SOME NOISY PEOPLE. This is no different than cateing to terrorist demands which Americans are so dead set against. Also, I don't see Mexican, Indian, Chinese, Japanese movies etc.. being attacked for their lack of diversity. But you know it's cool that shit doesn't impact my life directly so who cares as long as I feel happy in my own little American bubble. |
This. I agree with the whole post but I wanted to emphasize the bolded part. I love that show/book series but each character is very natural to it because it's not about anyone's sexuality but how everyone is more or less fighting for more power, to survive or for what they think is right. Sparticus is very much the same. Lots of sex staight and gay relationships/sex scenes but no one really minded any of it because it fit naturally to it.
