I can make really good French toast. I just don't like eating it.

Don't eat pancakes either unless they have strawberries.

I used to like those, but then...they were gross. But I remember they used to have them at school and I liked them.

I just don't like being reminded a character is gay or religious or not white every single time in stupid ways like "oh btw, I like dudes" or "lol slavery joke". Not because I don't like gay characters...I'm probably the most tolerant person you'd ever meet, even though it doesn't seem that way. I just feels it detracts from the story because writer wants to remind everyone "hey look, i'm so diverse"...like I don't give a ****. Make all your characters gay black atheists, I don't care. Just give me a good story and a well written character.

I guess it ultimately comes down to opinion. But that's all I want out of a story.


The thing is real people are quite often defined by their sexuality- not entirely but to some extent. For instance, how often have I talked about my own preferences? Do you find me annoying as a consequence? I should hope not.

I agree with Kami actually

I hate seeing gay characters on TV whose entire being and story revolves around a cliche coming out or self-acceptance story. It's not that those stories are bad, it's just that they're so over-saturated.

To me it's refreshing to see gay characters on TV who have their sexuality as more of a sideline detail. It's there, it does come up occasionally, but it's not their entire story. If you take Agron and Nasir from the Spartacus series, for example, they are great gay characters. They're gay and we know it, but they have a bigger role than just being the token angsty teen queens who are struggling to accept themselves. Same goes for Lafayette in True Blood, he's actually one of the best gay characters I've seen on TV. The irony is he's played by a straight actor :XD

No I don't find you annoying and in those instances we are usually all discussing things of that nature. Now if you were to go from board to board all over this forum and always bring up "Hey I'm gay, so I like this dude" or "Also I'm gay" and every single thing you said had something to do with the fact that you were gay and preferred gay things and were an incredibly generic shell of rainbows and butt banging because you think it makes you special so you need to remind everyone...yeah that'd be annoying.

But you are not that, not even a little bit.

Now imagine a character in a game, movie, show, or comic book that was that. Their entire reason for existing is for the sake of diversity and absolutely nothing else...if that is ALL they are defined by. Wouldn't that be annoying? All the gay people I have met in my life lead interesting lives and are three dimensional, some you would never even guess were gay. None of them are "the token gay" caricatures, so I don't think they should be depicted as such in entertainment unless its very blatant and intentional, in which case that just becomes a parody which is fine. I can appreciate a good parody.
saw Nintendo headline and was weirdly excited at the idea of a Nintendo smart phone. But then it turned out they're just making mobile games...not an actual phone.

Eh...bummer. Wanted to see Nintendo try and make a phone and fail like Microsoft did.

They should make it black and blue rather than white and gold. It's a gamble but it might confuse potential Iphone buyers into buying their phone instead.

I googled myself to see how easy it is to find me, and a really hot guy came up.

Jeez I hope he's not a relative. My name is not that common to where a million people are going to show up in a search :XD

I did search myself on Facebook once. There were only like 40 people on Facebook with my name, although that was a few years ago so it's probably gone up since.

Mostly in Australia oddly, not Malta

That's fair then Kami, Erm. But I think most characters criticized for being "too gay" don't actually bring up their sexuality inappropriately. They mention their husband/wife/spouse/lovers every once in a while, which is something any normal straight person would do. Thus if they're annoying for that, they could probably be better summed as not "too gay", but "too obsessed with relationships".

The ones that are just "GAY GAY I'M GAAAAY" are probably meant to be the equivalent of straight playboys written by people unfamiliar with gay people... or just homosexuality jokes- see Cho Aniki, etc. S'what I think anyway.

I've heard some funny Chinese translations before

Doesn't Bao Sianniang translate to something like "3 daughters" in English?
