Starting now.
Earlier you were saying that the Spartans were encouraged to take a male lover when their wife wasn't around. Could someone tell me where I could find some information on that? You can PM me if you want.
Thanks, 13th

"Ms. Invisible says:"Well if all the comics turn into a bunch of gay jokes, then people need to start being more open-minded."Well I don't mean gay jokes but I mean Wiccan always points out the fact that he's in love with Hulkling and sometimes he makes jokes about him kinda like a stright person would about there girlfriend or boyfriend if it's a girl.And it's like ok, we get that your gay, just shut up and f*ck some people up already."
But... when straight people do it, it's not annoying? O_o
Watch me make just about much as sense as you;
Well, I don't mean straight jokes, but I mean (ANY STRAIGHT SUPERHERO) always points out the fact that he's in love with (ANY STRAIGHT SUPERHERO'S LOVE INTEREST) and sometimes he makes jokes about him kinda like Wiccan would about Hulkling. And it's like "Okay! We get that you're straight, just shut up and frack some people up already!"
Runs over and grabs Young Avengers comics
Until 'Why should Northstar have all the fun?' and except for the suggestion that Asgardian change his name, there's hardly any conversation between the two about their relationship. I'd say the only time their sexuality is ever completely addressed head-on is when Billy and Teddy come out to Billy's parents. Otherwise, their jabs at each other aren't any different than the ones back-and-forths between anyone else on the team.

Because spikes out of the head, green skin, one draconian arm and a prehensile tongue all adds up to one sexy package.
Joking aside, Anole used to be really really pretty before everyone got extra-cartooney.

I completely agree with you. Back when Paco Medina was the artist, and used his more realistic style, he looked A LOT better

I actually enjoyed that crossover.

Yuck. There were so many things wrong with that. Aside from Billy and Teddy being over-romanticized here, so were Xavin and Karolina. And not to mention Xavin was ALWAYS in his male form throughout that crossover. Everything was over dramatic there, too. Victor's/Vision's crush on Cassie? I think that all Young Avengers writing should be left to Heinberg, who knows how to keep things subtle.
I do agree that in Young Avengers/Runaways Billy and Teddy were almost treated as YA's token queers. But I don't think we can generalize all gay characters in comic books by looking at one crossover.

So getting back on topic. I believe its been shown that DC is behind the times when it comes to integrating gay characters into there comics. That was the point of this thread at one point I believe :P

Thank you!!! BTW I just want the whole world to know...I'm coming out right now...right here...I'm gonna say it loud and proud...I'm heterosexual...that's right, I'm a guy who loves women and dam proud. Yeah, sounds pretty ridiculous huh? Well how does being gay and "coming out" make it any less ridiculous.

Because they are in the minority. People dont have to say they're heterosexual. Anyone would normally assume that. But a homosexual could very well have to tell you that they were gay before you had any inkling. And that being the case, it is harder for homosexuals to spot role models.
People naturally cling to others who are like they are, especially during the adolescent years. That's why teenagers are so cliquish. So when they look for role models, the look for people who have something in common with themselves. As an African America, I had no trouble spotting role models who I could find commonalities with, but lots of homosexuals could have a very difficult time of it, if there were not some known, openly gay individuals out there. So I think the comic book companies are trying to give their gay readership the same type of easily spotted role models.

Homosexuality is a sexual orientation not a race.

Real easy to talk like that on a forum. Huh? fuckboy. Can't wait till all of you have kids and have to explain this to them all. Oh wait, I forgot, it's as easy as saying, "Sometimes a baby has 2 mommies or two daddies." Riiiiight. Good luck with that.
