No. Female on female shit is more accepted because it turns heterosexual men and even women on.

Pretty sure the general public wouldn't really care.

MUST.

It is MANDATORY. MANDATORY SEX, it is a pervasive force that MUST. BE. EVERYWHERE.

THE GOD-SEX OF MANKIND.

Only when the first millions of 80 year old people will use the internet we will start to overcome this.

Ask any old man on his death bed if he still wants to "fuck" the wife or the child that holds his hand.
Or the leader he dedicated his life to.

Only then (we have 50 years to go, HALF A CENTURY) We will admit that there are other things in human relations other than sex.

One Punch Man has a pedophile gay man so I don't know how the tumblr girls I know still watch it
Samurai Champloo ( i think the american dude, its been a while)
and I think Full Metal Alchemist, but I've only seen snippets so I'm probably wrong

Really its just that japanese stereotype of bodybuilders being gay, so any time theres a big guy they make him gay for japanese COMEDY GOLD.

Depends. There are some things to consider.

Males nowadays are viewed as impure, we're "nasty", "predators", violent and our relationships are pretty focused on sexuality. That means most writers will not put m/m on a show for a young audience.

Then there's the fact that lesbians turn both men and women on, so male writers (i.e. the majority) will be more appealed to write those types of homosexual relationships.

Lastly most males are extremely insecure about their masculinity, so they avoid a lot of things to not break their illusion. Showing emotions, wearing certain clothes and so on.

Let's face it. Men are gross. Seeing two men fucking is like seeing two gorillas fucking. It's a curiosity but nothing anyone is going to get off to.

Both of the nuTrek movies have essentially been love stories between Kirk and Spock.The real tragedy is that they will never actually dare to take that step and have the two of them admit their mutual homo, which would be the only logical step left after how Into Darkness ended. The next movie will most likely be painfully forced heterosexuality on a whole new level.

male homosexuality is a sin

female homosexuality isnt really

I assume this is why western society generally doesnt care nearly as much about lesbians. It helps that it doesnt involve penetration and they dont put-a da kaka on they penis

My problem is that, in my opinion, the cast has a lot less chemistry than the old one. Added to that, someone seems to have realized that yes, the relationship between Kirk and Spock is pretty damn close and panicked, so they added Uhura as Spock's love interest because "no homo".

I'm very butthurt because the TOS timeline had a very "not canon but have fun you guys" attitude about slash, while nutrek seems to have adapted it only after they realized that alienating even MORE of your original fanbase isn't a good idea.

Not a lot of dudes are into seriously romancing girls, let alone guys. Any serious gay romance will either have to be sexual or super flamboyant to the point of it looking more like a joke.

There's also tragic one sided romance shit but we have enough of that too.

Stop being stupid. Stop using this one example of slash getting out of control to generalise "the times". There are plenty of platonic male friendships everywhere.

I think the cast has pretty great chemistry, especially if you watch their interviews and stuff, but most of them get far too little screentime for us to see much in terms of character relationships. Part of that is because the format aka blockbuster summer movie is not as well suited for such things as a TV series is, though the other part is certainly failure of writing.

The approach TOS had to slash, especially Kirk/Spock variety, became much more relaxed as time went by. Roddenberry went from giving statements of "I created them and they are NOT gay" to creating extra special word to express that Spock and Kirk are "brothers, friends and/or lovers".

I think nuTrek did aim to keep the Kirk&Spock gay vibes from the start, what with their script having things like "Their eyes meet the first time. It is as if time stops." However, because Trek is a weird future where no homosexuality happens EVER (unless you are an evil lesbian), there was a need to somehow establish NO HOMO, which they did by hooking Spock and Uhura up.
Not sure how well that worked though, since comparing Spock with Uhura to Spock with Kirk just kinda makes it all the more gay.

A lot of people are putting female relationships in their stuff to be inclusive rather than males because 'male relationships are overdone, there's more to LGBT' than that when in all honestly, I can't think of many male/male relationships in media.

Those two from Glee and uhm, stuff from Queer as Folk and that's it, I can name a bunch of girl/girl ones, especially recently.

When they are portrayed, males are portrayed rather sexualized relationships while females are portrayed more romantically. Same with bisexuality. They claim they don't want bisexual erasure but I can name a bunch of bi girls in shows but no bi guys except like Captain Jack Harkness or some shit if that counts.

Probably because this "movement" is fronted by white women. Hence the lack of POC as well.

I guess i wouldn't mind too much more gay romances, but what i find hilarious it's the kinda recent gay "cameo" trend

>ME3
>There's this one guy in the hangar you can talk to
>"yo, why so sad"
>"Uh, nothing commander, you see... when we were fleeing Earth... muh husband was left behind"

>The Flash show
>Chief guy is speaking about something
>"... uh, i'm in a hurry now, because my husband is preparing our marriage"

Like, i don't mind these characters, it's good that they naturally give away their sexuality like this instead of building entire forced storyarcs about how progressive they are, but i don't know, i just find it funny to think that at any random moment a male side character that was doing nothing during an entire scene will turn around and drop the name of his boyfriend/husband like it's nothing
>>
>>78637565
I do that in everyday conversation, dropping in my bf. Its sometimes hard to do and almost always generates an awkward silence. Its only ever comfortable for me to do around close friends and family.

Well, Puri Puri Prisioner is his Super Hero Persona, and most hero personas are wacky.

After that during my first playthrought I stopped talking to Cortez, hoping he would stop whining but he didn't and died in the end. I'm okay with gay characters, but didn't like this shoving that fact as the first thing of his introduction.
Despite my Shepard romancing Kaidan and me liking the theme of their relationship - losing time together because of the fear of rejection.

Thats my main issue with LGBT characters in media now. They're becoming token characters, which is the exact opposite of what the social justice movement wants but they're too dumb to realize that. There are now characters that exist just to be gay and they're just gonna be the gay ones and do nothing but mention their lovers or have gay romances and that's it, no other personality.

Anyone seen Jessica Jones recently? The Jerry Hogart divorce plotline. Perfect example of this. Served zero purpose but to go "Look they're lesbians"

As someone who is bisexual I'd prefer someone who happens to be gay, and someone who just happens to be gay doesn't name drop their lover every ten minutes, trying to act casual about it to be inclusive.
>>
>>78638362
That would explain why so much of it is shit.

>>78638191
It seems to be a running theme that if you make a character a minority it can excuse lazy/ bad writing because 'muh progressiveness'
>>
>>78638191
Because Cortez was just there to be gay. They think just because they've switched gay characters to be less butch for women and less queen for males that they're being progressive. Cortez literally has two story routes - One about his husband, and gay romance. Does nothing else in the story but 'be gay'

Kaidan on the other hand has zero mentioning of his sexuality, it's just another part of him, probably because the gay option was only introduced in three. His role in the story still stays the same.

So, basically you wanted Albus Dumbledore.

>>78638526
Basically, yeah. I mean gay romance is okay but it's just got zero spark between them if the point of the romance is just to be progressive.

>it's just got zero spark between them if the point of the romance is just to be progressive
Well, people just want to sell their product. If they think some gays will pay for it just because there's gays in it, they're going to do it.

Demand runs supply.

While there are those characters, whose homosexuality is very much shoehorned in, there are also very valid side characrters whose sexuality is casually brought up. I would say the Police Chief from Flash is one; he mentions his boyfriend/fiance/husband occationally in conversations, which is something a lot of people tend to do. People in relationships tend to make casual references to their significant other, simply because that person is very central element in their everyday life.

I believe so. I'm quite partial to the Jojo edit

>>78619868
Speaking strictly from statistics, while bisexuality among women has reportedly risen considerably in the last several decades (studies show it around 25% at most, though I don't know the low-end), bisexuality and homosexuality among males has remained at the same number it has been for more than 150 years. Just about 3%.

So, going just by pure numbers, no the public is less likely to appreciate a shoehorned gay romance.
