I like inclusion when it's actual inclusion and not pandering. Like Paul and Hugh in Star Trek: Discovery. They are both good characters in their own right who also happen to be gay by complete chance. Because as a bi man that's exactly what I feel: There's so much more to me than my sexuality, something I had absolute 0 choice in.
It gets bad however in other shows when gay characters exist just to be gay and that's all they are, no character beyond that.
- epgui 4y agoI can't say that I remember feeling that LGBTQ+ characters were out of place in many movies or shows (I'm a straight white dude). One I particularly enjoyed was the character of Taylor Mason in Billions. Just an incredible character.
