So an organization specifically about homosexual issues says there should be more homosexuals.
In other news, water is wet.

Would it lessen or better his appeal if he didn't like dudes? If he liked men and women? If he was a child? A rabbi?
The point of this diatribe is that sexuality, along with other elements, shouldn't have to matter. But it keeps getting forced up with quota nonsense. Which would have people flipping out if they forced white performers into a black production or a organization of straight people rolling around saying there needs to be more straight characters out there.
I always thought C3P0 was gay.

I really dislike this trend where things are added just to fill some imaginary checkbox.
Also, that organization can kiss my ass and I bet they would enjoy doing that. It's okay to be gay, that's fine, whatever, but when they attempt to stick this in my face all the time, I am getting upset.
Besides, half of the characters there could be gay and we don't know it, because you know being gay does not mean you should be a dude or dudess waving rainbow colored lightsabers, while loudly declaring they are members of progressive LGBT society.

the difference is that almost every movie already has white people and straight people in it because white straight male is the norm for hollywood.
putting a white guy in a black role takes away one of the few roles black actors can have. im a white male actor, it is much much much easier for me to find jobs than it is for my minority friends.
there is an overabundance of actors for any and every role you can ever conceive, theres absolutely no reason why there shouldnt be more minority characters in media the people in charge just arent hiring them.
you people act as if diversity is a bad thing, or that there has to be a choice between diversity or quality when there is absolutely no possible reason why we cant have both.

i think we need to take a second to remember one of those age old lessons kids are taught. Two wrongs don't make a right.
personally I really coudln't care less, except when there's talk of changing established ideas to suit a new way of thinking.
edit:
and the way finn was acting in the movie it's unlikely he could be gay... i mena almost drooling over being around Rey and treying to be the man she thought he was.
Rey... the jury's out on. Poe... might be gay. Photographic proof in thread already.
Then suck it up, I am terribly sorry, but the hard truth is that heterosexuality is the way it's meant to be for bloody most of the population of the Earth.
Go make a colony on Mars if you don't like that fact. Stop shitting on everyone else for your little agenda. It only paints big red target mark on your asses.
No?
People were pissed that while your galaxy is on the brink of destruction by a massive alien super race, you better take time of your day to deal with your gay crew mate gay feelings, along with other kind of bullshits.
Why the fuck does a character being a gay have so much emphasis in the first place, we're flying around in the god damn galaxy to fight evil aliens out to destroy every single living being within the galaxy, your crewmates being gay should be irrelevant, they should be gay and that's it, nothing else.
It's forced and shit writing.
But keep up with the le gamers so bigoted XDDDDDDDDDD meme, it's pretty pathetic, but whatever.

Forced shit writing? In a game that has a ton of what are essentially dating minigames? Get over yourself, it was no different that talking to any of the other members.
It was totally the fact that the game shoulda had none of the relationship stuff in the first place! yeah totally.... everyone complained about the other romantic partners too! Like 100% facts!!!!!
Fun fact, people complained about the dating minigames aswell, but that breaks your shit narrative, doesn't it? Can't have that.
People complained about everything that took of the focus off the main story. Actually, having to run off to deal with Jacob's daddy issues got ten times more complaints than the gay characters as you claim, keep on spewing bullshit though.
EVUL GAMERS ARE SO BIGOTED REEEEEEEEE
Mass Effect is literally a dating sim with guns, with such a background I see no issues with having gay characters really.
Star Wars, on the other hand, is not that and having to bend the thing over just to appease some group of bleeding hearts is a bad form indeed and makes this a joke.
Its because 97% of the population is straight and dont want to see gay characters. There is a reason that movies that feature mostly gay characters only get played in a handful of major theaters and are relegated to mostly arthouse theaters and they flop
Maybe they shouldn't, but that's irrelevant because you are sitting there trying to paint gamers as bigoted basement dwelling losers who hated on mass effect for having gay characters, it's pure unadulterated bullshit, get your fucking facts straight.
You people remind me of conservative religious nutjobs, you are no different.
First, off. "You people". Super classy. But I'll work from there.
YOU PEOPLE act as if tokenism is a good thing and it's fucking appalling. Diversity is good when it comes naturally. Diversity at gunpoint to satisfy complainers is a terrible thing and leads to strife.
Plus, something for you. Unless romance or sexuality is specifically brought up, sexuality is fucking invisible. Finn and Rey do zero of that, so how can you have the audacity to claim "they must be straight!" And shittalk the people who think they might be gay? Gay, straight, bisexual, whatever people all act the same otherwise. Like PEOPLE. So, the only way to clue it in is to either clunkily force it into film if that detail wasn't crucial in some way (as opposed to a series where people talk to each other in between zombie survival moments, so something like sexuality can crop up naturally) or make a spectacle of it to bait easy tickets out of people who feel advanced for watching a movie with a gay person in it.
Oh, fucking please.
You do this garbage all the fucking time, you pop into a random thread, post some shit comment where you shit on gamers in general, then run off again, stop avoiding.
Who have said there is anything wrong with having gay characters? Nobody but a few minimal idiots complained about actual having gay characters in the game, they complained about these random side mission, it completely pulled you out of the mainstory and what was going on in the galaxy, same goes for every mission that was like that, again. There were more complaints about Jacob's daddy issue mission than about the gay stuff.
