Less talk about "how you feel about gay posts" and more about "HEY, that black miqo'te is super cute and good looking for a couple they are.

I would eat that Miqo'te up. I wonder if its true about black Miqo'te swordsmen.

That they wield big curved swords..


























CURVED. SWORDS!

Wouldn't time be better spent finding, identifying and debunking the hater's arguments against us bisexual/homosexual people than making posts on MMO forums celebrating a couple NPCs who are gay?

But at the same time it's right to give credit to SE for doing something good, which was the purpose of this thread (I think). If the positive feedback gets to SE, it's done more good than harm even if it pisses off a few of the most vocal homophobes.

All these "I'm here, I'm queer, so get used to it" threads are starting to make me cringe.
We don't need a thread poking potential homophobic people every weeks.

Cheers.

If you think this is that type of thread, then you are seriously wrong lol, ALL I'm saying, is the black cat is pretty hot and they are a happy couple together.

Also the black cat is hot and I want to eat him like chocolate ice cream, seriously there needs to be more black Miqo'te's around.

Edit: Also new infomation from this thread through all the nonsense and personal attacks, it seems races can cross breed in this world SO a lalafell can have a kid with a Miqo'te. That's awesome

Edit: Also, PAGE 9 <squee>

Yeah, the OP is a squeeing fangirl who didn't intend to start a disscusion. How naive.

Also, squeeing fangirls are FAR more annoying than LGBT+ of any kind wil ever be.

there has been a set of male NPCs with one suggesting they are about to do naughty things together since the launch of ARR~!

Like the sleeping male Lala in Drybone going "Take me, Raubahn! I am your sultana!" Poor guy... :p


As for the "female homosexuality more accepted", it's mainly that just because two women are portrayed as intimately involved with each other, it doesn't necessarily have to do with homosexuality: just look at the number of pornographic clips featuring two women -- directed at a male viewer. It's a common male fantasy, and therefore more acceptable from a heterosexual (male) perspective.
The issues come when people realize that those two ladies are also romantically involved with each other and not about to give up their dallying and find proper husbands... *rolls eyes*

Before people continue dragging out every single example of gay/bi female NPCs lying around Eorzea, I think it's worth pointing out that this is the first time in the entire game we've seen men portrayed as openly homosexual. Lesbians are, no offense intended, the "okay" sort of homosexual as far as the "straight male" demographic is concerned. Having homosexual men appear is deliberately going beyond that acceptable norm. Which is great, especially for a Japanese game.

Also a gay man here, but I appreciated the thought. I also appreciate that they didn't overstay their welcome as easily as they could have. It's cute, and it happened, and it's done.

I was honestly happier to see that those two guys I have to watch "die" at the start of every WP run not only survived, but got so much growth and happiness out of it. I hate not being able to save everyone.

Japanese culture is actually very accepting of male homosexuality. You'll find that it's lesbianism that is treated disdainfully over there. "You're a woman who likes other women? That's cute and all, but when are you going to get a husband?"

Keep your fetishes to yourself, please.

Oh, I know. Ikuhara's latest series is about exactly that, and it's been an emotional roller coaster so far. As I clarified before, I meant in media, which is still dominated pretty heavily by straight men.
