Well, the actor who played Finn was actually amazing in his job.

Over the years I have had PLENY of romantic and sexual attractions to both males and females, and I have had PLENY of married men hitting on me so...   yeah, is not that simple.

Yes, we are all aware of bisexuality.  

Well,  actually,  IT WAS essential to the story.  I mean, one of the main reasons Anakin went to the dark side was because of his love for Padme, because he wanted the power to save her.

Now, if he had been gay, the writers would have needed another excuse to make him go dark.  Sure, they could have made Padme a male, but in that case we would need a different origin story for Luke (if he was ever to exist in that scenario).

Now, with all that being said,   I wouldnt mind an homosexual romance (with a kiss included) in the Star Wars universe.

Apparently nuckles87 is not.

Yoda is so totally open gay

Yes, but the question is, how can you determine whether the incusion of any kind minority in a movie is the result of catering to a certain group of people? There are all sorts of straight chracters and I never hear anyone complain about them. Sometimes their love story is important, others it's a simple "she's hot" comment. Why does a writer have to justify using a group from a minority every time?

It's like: female protagonist? Pfft, it's all because of them feminists

Gay character? pfft. Pushing the gay agenda.

Black character? pfft. Token character and how dare they kill him? (ignoring that there are tons of white characters who also get killed early on in the move or have a tiny roll).

What's next?
I fucking hate this diversity for the sake of diversity only.
Make a good Fitting story.

When the media shuts up about it and lets the artist make his vision.  My issue is not the inclusion or cut of a gay character, it is how the media is always harping on it in some way that puts the arist in a tight spot.  If JJ had done this and no one knew about it, obviously this was his vision.  However when an interviewer tries to put him on the spot, he has either two choices.  Express interest in it, or express disinterest and get crucified by the media as a result.  Writters are being forced to consider supporting this just to stay in the medias good graces.

I see your point, it is hard to tell what they are doing in these situations.  However the reason for this is because the media and activists won't shut up about it and keep trying to force their way into everything.  My point is the entire subject needs to be dropped and artist need to be able to just portray their vision how they intend.  Then and only then will it be appearent that the story is being told the way it is meant to be told.

I'd welcome a good screenplay in Star Wars.
