Like it or not, LGBT+ people lead different lifes (usually not as much kid focused as straight people, having to deal with coming out etc..) and can have different interests and difference should be that celebrated, not erased. Even among the LGBT+ community there's an overly conformist sentiment of wanting to please and being seen as "normal' by those outside and I kinda take issue with it.

But it's probably too much of a hot take for a video game forum.
The majority of charaters in game don't have any indication of them being straight.

Stop assuming their gender and sexuality. It's bigotry, hateful, discriminatory, and very offensive.
