heteros: its just more realistic if gay characters dont say theyre gay…..like why would they need to talk about that
gays: this character is gay!
heteros: um where did they say theyre gay
I have to agree tho,I’d rather see a gay character be seen as gay because they’ve been shown to be gay in canon or mentioned it as part of character development not just “omfg wow look how gay I am lawl!”
if they dont fucking say “im gay” anywhere people like you claim theyre not gay no matter how much “character development” they get, shut the fuck up
like holy shit! heres some examples :^)
pearl (obvious choice):
- sings an entire song about missing a woman and not being able to move on from her
- got jealous of the man who started becoming a romantic interest in the woman she was in love with
- had an episode where she showed interest in a woman
- like holy shit 99% of her character development involves loving a woman
and guess what the fandom does? “that doesnt mean shes gay!” “she just looked up to rose!” and ships her CONSTANTLY with men, one of which she shows huge discomfort with
ruby and sapphire:
- kisses each other in episodes
- flirts with each other
- their fusion literally says shes made of love
and the fandom? “theyre sisters” “its platonic” “its forced”
marceline and princess bubblegum:
- pb smells marcelines shirt
- the crew of that show literally confirmed they used to date each other
and the fandom still deny it!! because theyve been with men before
korra and asami:
- confirmed to be canon
and the fandom denies it and ships one/both of them with men because theyve been with men before
see a pattern here?
THEY’RE KID SHOWS PLEASE FIND SOME OF THOSE THAT ARE TENDED FOR OLDER AUDIENCES AND WE’LL TALK
oh im sorry i didnt realize that gay people were bad for children
