JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I found this article to be dumb as f#@k. What a self hating asswípe. Sounds like Milo Yiannopo-douchebag wrote it. https://nypost.com/2019/05/10/why-we-dont-need-a-gay-marvel-superhero/ Besides we all know it's going to be Captain Marvel. The second one will probably be a new hero.

PlastiscGuy 21,166 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 We don't need a gay superhero because they're gonna simply kill him off PG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zander 14,910 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 If there were to be a gay superhero there would be a huge deal on the fact he’s gay when in reality we should just normalise it and not make a huge deal out of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALITY 76,758 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Comments like that really piss me off. *A franchise has 1000 straight heroes* no one says anything about it *A franchise introduces 1 gay superhero* OH MY GOD! THE WORLD HAS GONE TO ****! WE DON'T THIS SJW/LIBERAL AGENDA BULLSHIT Seriously, what is the problem with a little bit of representation?

I think in a perfect world, we could do that, however, because we don't yet live in a world that normalizes LGBTQ people, then I think it's a great thing to make a big deal out of it. People made a big deal when Black Panther was the first leading African American hero, people made a big deal when Captain Marvel was the first leading female hero, why can't the same be said for a gay hero?

That's exactly what I feel. I think that LGBT+ should be included, but I don't think we should do it for the sake of doing it and making a big deal out of it. It should be treated like everything else to help normalize it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordEnigma 11,313 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I'd honestly never expect it/need it. Would it be cool? Yes. Does it HAVE to happen? No. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombiecat 16,760 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Is there an emphasis on all the other superhero's sexuality though? Like do we know there aren't bisexual marvel characters? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oriane 21,116 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Aren't there already a lot of LGBT superheroes ? Or is it only in DC ? The only GGD member who can read / Credits to Celloo Deng for the profile pic! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miel 15,009 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Whew, with the title I thought this was going to be going a different direction. But yeah, controversial opinion, but I do think we need more LGBTQ+ superheroes. We're getting some representation in some mediums (comics themselves, books, etc), but to see it on the big screen?

DC 25,164 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Because if there was then the LGP (see what I did there ) would just say that they’re not gay enough and constantly bag on it, just look at Cat Women in Batman, what a mess people made that out of just cause she wasn’t “lesbian enough” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
