I personally find it extremely funny that the Russian conservative racist character has become a Tumblr icon just because she's built as fuck and has pink hair.

Show just how the only thing that matters to them is appearances. Zarya is probably one of the least Tumblr characters (lore-wise) in the game, Blizzard really pulled a bait and switch on them.

Zarya being a gay icon is ironic because she's a Russian nationalist and Russia hates gays. Also, she's made no inclination of being gay, tumblrtards are stereotyping her as gay just because she's fit and has pink hair which is also ironic because tumblrtards freak out when other people stereotype them due to their appearance.

Literally using porn to prove a point. Could work with any character since they all get porn. In fact, you could just rewrite that article with any other female character in the game.

Reaper or Lucio are the most statistically likely to be gay, if we're going by IRL figures.

Girls tend a lot more towards bisexuality than homosexuality, at any rate. Zarya probably wishes she was small and feminine at times, despite being proud of her physique. She'd probably be most attracted to the most twinkish of the male characters.

Trust me, I'm a doctor.

it's ironic because her actual character and appearance differ completely and it shows sjws care only about appearance which is exactly what they say they are against

This.

If you made Zarya real, she would literally be a conservative racist. If she doesn't trust Zenyatta or Genji in game, what's the chances she'd trust Muslims IRL? Tumblr sees the pink hair + bodypositivity and immediately ignores everything else about the character.

Zen's all about love and hippie shit so it could be possible, most likely asexual though.
Bastion has that whole naive new mind thing going which is easy to write into gayness.
Hanzo doesn't show much interest in anyone at all but he's human and not really religious so it could be literally anything.
Pharah ditto.

I mean I don't think anyone is partuclar leaning that way but these are the most possible to write as gay or ambiguously sexual.

Blizzard wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot by actually revealing the gay character(s). There's no reason to; the character's sexuality has fuck-all to do with the gameplay and this way the tumblr crowd can draw whatever pairings make them moist and feel vindicated that it could POSSIBLY be true.

Apparently the joke about Zarya is too kino for /v/

Zarya is normal in America today, but banned in Russia today.

Overwatch is in 2030 something.

By 2030, America is accepting of Omnics and some are movie producers.

But Russia is now just as culturally advanced as America 15 years prior.

So yes, Zarya would be fine with Muslims.

She's a Tumblrina years after it was "in" to be one.

It doesn't take a genius to notice that the vocal majority of the LGBT community is fucking batshit insane. So instead of having real fucking role models, they try and force their sexuality onto fictional characters in popular games/series for representation.

Hell that whole "Samus is trans!" thing was fucking ridiculous. They literally lied saying that the creator said Samus was trans, and this was proof and people had to accept it. Then when the creator corrected them, they did a 180 and said fuck the creator, Samus is trans because I say so.

These people are fucking desperate to not look like the fucking lunatics they are

alrighty here it is

female attracted to females-gay (lesbian)
male and female attracted to both genders-bi
male or female thinking they are other genders or they thing that there are 100 different genders because they were earrings-fucked in the head and unworthy of attention or merit
Zarya is female trying to attract other females through masculinity
thus lesbian
she is not a different gender because of the way she looks she just advertises her tastes through them

>Before delving further into Zarya’s sexuality, it’s important to reiterate that just because a woman is mega-strong and pink-haired, that does not by any means mean she is gay. A woman’s appearance has absolutely no bearing on her sexual orientation, period

This is intensely problematic. People posing as progressives are insisting on stereotyping gays and pigeonholing straight women into regressive gender norms. Death to these fans.

What place does a PR stunt have in a videogame? I wonder why anyone would think a videogame would 'need' diversity or anything that would deter from the original creator's work. I cannot understand some people's need to project their differences in a way that 'forces' people to accept them. What good would that do?

The only reason I can think of is to capitalize on the tumblr crowd. I would think simpler folk could feel driven to buy a game simply because they changed a white dude to a black girl or something.
