Openly gay characters in ff14

What does "Openly Gay" have to do with anything about the lore of the game?

LOL what does "openly gay" have to do with FFXIV lore?

Because the question of societal norms around homosexuality in Eorzea is actually quite important. I remember a vibrant debate about if Eorzea would, in lore, support equal marriage when the Eternal Bonding system was announced. There were a lot of people who argued that same-sex marriage would be against the religion of the Twelve, others who pointed to the existence of 1.0 characters, et cetera. The way the game treats gay characters is an important part of figuring out the values of the society.

That's what ti has to do with the lore.
