Agree with Snowtroll. And no, I wasn't trolling. I was expressing my opinion. Do you disagree, and feel that it _should_ matter if the person is gay or straight or bisexual? Do you really feel that it should matter? I think it shouldn't matter. I know that for some ignorant people, it DOES matter - but, I feel pretty strongly that it shouldn't.

Why, Threshold, do you think it should matter? Do gay people roleplay differently than straight people? I've known a few RPers who, for whatever reason, let people know they were gay. The most common response has been "Oh." Do you expect something other than that? I just really think someone's sexuality is a non-issue, and it -should- be treated as such. Whether it is treated as such or not, is another matter entirely.

But if you disagree with me, I'd be interested in hearing why.

Also, where I play, I don't see gay bashing and slurs thrown IC or OOC against gay players.
