D.Va for days. So many selfies.

D.Va streams her fights, i think players dont "play" her they just watch a stream.

As for guess, i think Hanzo might be gay. Why? Why not? Its not unheard of that the strong and silent fighter is gay.

See this survey, where 1 in 2 young people in the UK identify as not 100% straight: https://yougov.co.uk/news/2015/08/16...-heterosexual/

Yes. My ship is growing stronger.

None. Always thought it was a weird fad for the internet to make tons of Lesbo/Gay pairings as
opposed to straight ones.

Either way, the only characters I would ship is Soldier 76 and Ana. The rest, nah.

There's a VAST difference between being slightly attracted to members of your own sex, and being bi. At least in my mind.
Being bi means you are able to find both sexes sexually attractive, which the VAST majority of people simply do not

Well the actual research disagrees with you. Most people are somewhere on the bisexual spectrum, even if they're predominantly attracted to the opposite sex. But anyway, my point - is that if we're discussing character's sexualities, don't just dismiss bisexuality as some super rare fringe possibility because it's not.

As I said, there's a big difference between being attracted to a select few members / slightly attracted to members of your own sex, and being bi, where you're able to enjoy both sexes evenly, or almost evenly.
I will concede the point that most (if not all) are able to find a few members of their own sex that are attractive, but that doesn't mean they'll find most attractive

Bisexual doesn't entail equal or near equal attraction, it just means any capability of being attracted to both sexes. Whether or not someone chooses to use that label is a different matter. But it's not some rare thing and there's a lot to suggest that it's actually our "default" sexuality, merely suppressed by socialisation.

If you look at it that way, then yes.
But in the context of shipping and relationships, then, at least in the modern world, it's not a very common thing.

Well that's kind of circular reasoning isn't it? Why are bisexuals rare in fiction? Because no one considers them. Which makes people think it's rare so the next wave of people don't consider them. Same with real relationships. If you're bi and in a relationship people will assume that you're one sexuality or another based on who you're currently dating. If you're dating someone of the opposite sex people will think your straight, dating same sex people will think you're gay. I guarantee you that a lot of relationships which you have assumed to include straight people actually involved bisexual people.

It depends on when you consider it to go from being straight/gay to bi. But yeah, I can see that it's a self fulfilling prophecy, depending on when you consider the transition to bi to be.
