Nail, you just dun got hit on the head by dis post right 'ere.trollpwner said:
Seriously, it's not like it should make any difference to a well-written character. It would only make a difference if they became really 2-dimensional about it and could only go on about "OOoh, I'm gay! Oooh, I like men!" I haven't read many Marvel comics, so I've no idea how they would play this, but if done well, it should be barely noticeable. Makes you wonder why they bother making a deal about it at all. Unless they're going to go all 2-dimensional about it. (Ohgod)
It's an obvious grab for attention. "Oh, look at us, we have a gay character. Aren't we so accepting and liberal." Fuck right off. Sexuality is as relevant as race--that is to say, NOT AT ALL.
