No that lesbians are more or less accepted in cartoons, how long before we get a gay male relationship shown openly?

Never. Lesbians are cute. Gays are icky.

Literally this

they can play off lesbian relationships as "really affectionate friends" cos girls don't have the same physical/emotional boundaries in their platonic relationships with each other

This is a 9 year old boy with an unambiguous obsessive crush on another boy.
Not what I would call a healthy relationship but it's noteworthy.

user, lesbian relationships are inoffensive to striaght men and thus less riskier. no ones taking that risk.

Voltron will be the first

Yet again, nips have been ahead of westerners for years. Yuri is an entire genre of cartoon there.

is Bubblegum and Marceline canon now?

I haven't watched that show in ages

The cops from Gravity Falls.

No, neither the last one on the picture, but do not ruin dreamds

He's going to put it in Pidge.

Now

Oh yeah. We have a winner, folks.

Is this show good?

So the OP doesn't contain actual lebsians it's just meme lesbians?

>People of the same gender aren't allowed to be good friends anymore because of shippers

Gay/Lesbians make up 5% or less of the population. I don't know why people think its around 20-25%

pleaseletthishappenpleaseletthishappenpleaselpenissharpenpleaseletthishappen

Only the middle one is canon and only via contrived cop-out ending

Rather by insistence by shippers and Bryke, the ending isn't conclusive.

people of different genders are rarely allowed to be friends, hows that any better?

Who said it was?

Because among younger people it is, many people who would've identified as straight in the past are now more comfortable proclaiming a different sexuality if they in fact fall closer to the middle of the Kinsey scale.
Some studies have been shown that in some places in the US up to half of teenagers are labeling themselves something other than straight.

>people of different genders are rarely allowed to be friends

By that logic nobody should be allowed to be friends because of fucking shippers

>Some studies have been shown that in some places in the US up to half of teenagers are labeling themselves something other than straight.

These people would also be the ones who, in the UK, would have voted to leave the EU thinking it would never happen. People are gonna say whatever they want on the internet or if they can remain anonymous.

Yeah. The first few eps are overly expository and meh but it is an uphill kind of show where every ep seems better than the last.

I was merely proving numbers mean shit on fictional pairings
Im talking about canon pairings though, when characters that go through adversity together its nice to see them reach a xomfy relationship be it as it may

AOT is gay now?
What did i miss?

>Gay/Lesbians make up 5% or less of the population.
And fiction can focus on anyone, regardless of how small their population is.

Well, the politicians in GB can still just straight up ignore the result as it wasn't a legally binding one. It's not like the actual majority of the population voted for Brexit after all.

So what's happening is actually everyone, high and low, in GB being collectively fucking retarded.

>not canon
>last minute decision
>shitty anime

>out of any actual lesbian couples from anime they choose the one that's not actually a canon couple

>Not shipping Lance and Keith
for what purpose

elves, superheroes and sentient robots make up 0% of the population
does that mean we can't write about them either


>> People are gonna say whatever they want on the internet or if they can remain anonymous.

That....doesn't tell me that they are actually straight and just saying shit

That sounds more like that they're gay and are more comfortable saying so anonymously. There's nothing to gain out of pretending to be gay online. Even if you go into SJW zones, being gay doesn't mean shit, because it's not special to them anymore.

I'm just going with the obviously canon pair

Gus and Wally

I would love to see an openly gay relationship in any piece of modern animation (or videogame) for that matter. I'm tired of lesbians being the default homosexual couple that creators go for these days.

It's the safe way to go. Guys like lesbians more than homos.

I assume this thread is about kids' cartoons because there's been plenty of gay couples in adult cartoons already (going back to Mission Hill), and in that space it's all baby steps, open homosexuality is still a new thing. And people seem to be less offended by lesbians.
It'll get there. Clyde from The Loud House has two dads, probably worth mentioning.

Sweet. Want to watch it for the semen demon with a white streak in his hair, glad to know it's also a good show.

sadly Sup Forums is correct

I was sure they were setting this up

Yeah, hopefully we can also finally get a canon pedo couple, so we can start validating pedosexuals.

If you watch it for Shiro you'll be pleased

Shiro is love
Shiro is life

Lesbians are icky too if guys didn't think with their dicks.

Are there lewds with him?

Why don't you google it?

I am very lazy.

Head on over to Japanese media then. They have plenty of BL.

>le epic pedo meme goes here
as a guy who likes shota I can't believe there are pendejos like you

I think men like gay people when they aren't stereotypes and are very manly. The gay part is just has to be incidental and not the defining character trait. The boondock saints had Smecker who slaps his asian boy toy lover and tells him to quit being a fag when he tries to cuddle

Thank you. It's really annoying when bigots bring up population stats for fiction, sure certain demographics may be questionable. If you as the writer can rationalize it, then it will work.

nier
though its sad as fuck and it goes nowhere

Always happy to trigger homofags.

...

My problem with Lesbians in popular fiction is that exist more for the pleasure of the heterosexual male gaze than actual representatives of the demographic.

Not when you are making a fiction based upon our world, unless of course for some weird reason nature works diferently in this place.

does anyone have this screen shot minus the subtitles.

Nigger it's fiction, a creator can do whatever the fuck he wants. Are you also one of those who wants realistic costumes on superheroes ?

> gets lesbians, then complains that lesbians are usually a straight fetish
> instead would prefer that they would be used just as including diversity for tumblr purposes

>unless of course for some weird reason nature works diferently in this place

You mean like in all the fictional worlds in question in this thread?

>SU: everyone is rocks
>Korra: people born with magical powers with weird genetics involved
>AT: no one is even human except the MC

Gee I can't believe the gays are ruining the realism of this historical fiction

I think I remember that when I played it. Given the whole theme and setting of Nier, sad as fuck and goes nowhere is probably the best outcome.

Yep. The fact that it's on Netflix instead of like CN helps.

Why do characters always have to "represent" real people?

not that person but its true, lesbs are seen as a very macho fantasy just like gay porn is spectacularly well received by traight women if you really think about it why would any straight person would want to watch other straights of their gender in the act?

> Nigger it's fiction, a creator can do whatever the fuck he wants.

Not when making a series in our world and under our rules of logic, mofo. Remember when Forrest Grump started flying and shooting energy through his hands, or when in Saving Private Ryan they opened a door to hell and started shooting demons Doom style?

If you want a series to work as in real world you need to stay in our logic, otherwise you break the disbelief of the audience and your work becomes nonsense.

If you followed the talk I was replying to another user, who said that fiction can do it 'generally'.

To help marginalized groups know that they're okay, that they're normal and human like everyone else.

Northstar's wedding and Midnighter.

> my God, people fap at us!

And this is a problem because...?

> why would any straight person would want to watch other straights of their gender in the act?

Because they usually identify with the person of same sex doing the other of opposite one?

it was, it fucking was
*sob* kuwata... sunoho *sob* va-valai...~

Do you seriously need to ask?

> marginalized groups

:^)

> normal

:^)

thats gay though
literally gay
tags are ruining society

You can set a story in the real world without slavishly adhering to its real or imagined rules. It's done all the time.

So the usual narcissistic social justice victim complex masturbation.

we're talking about day timeslot cartoons, not comics

Lesbians are gay. There is no distinction.

...

Who cares? It's not the job of creators of fiction to validate the existence of a certain minority group.

doesnt that go for straights too? what if creators belong to those minorities? are you for real?

Not him, but it isn't their job in any case. Nobody is obligated to include certain characters or story elements.

You might have had a point if Korra and Adventure Time's creators hadn't taken it upon themselves to validate certain minority groups. Now it's a perfectly valid criticism if others don't take that step because it can be construed as cowardice. Slippery slope status has been achieved, expect it from now on whether it makes any sense or not.

thats true but its sad that its frowned upon so badly

>straights
>minority
Kek

Writers can write about whatever they want to, it is their choice and their freedom to do so.
The problem comes in when SJ types proclaim that
books/movies/shows/games have to represent x group of people in order to be good.
Never mind the plot, or gameplay, or art, it doesn't have enough black/gay/crippled people in it therefore it's bad.

well, we can reference cripple media in those instances, most of th time its shitty as fug

But user men are disgusting and woman are pure.

Well lesbian relationships tend to be based on love and understanding I'm contrast to male homo sexuality which in most cases is based solely on lust.

Is that why lesbian couples have the highest rate of domestic violence, while gay couples have the lowest?

Real life lesbians are much different than in yuri anime.

Lesbian is the number one porn hub result in the US and a bunch of other countries.

Lesbians are not controversial. They just get annoying if they're all dikes.

I'd be down for a one-sided doomed crush on Keith's part

>non-canon couples
>anime
0/10 bait OP

If Johnny Quest gets rebooted, I could see pic related being made canon

Stay buttblasted faggots, your defensiveness protecting your degenerate pairings is why people hate shippers
