It’s certainly not as strong as the obvious mutual attraction of Jean and Logan over the years, though. Not by a long shot.
So I think the negative reaction to it would be more along the lines of “it came out of left field” than some bigotry (as your eye roll kind of implies). At least around here. Not speaking for the broader world at large, like Facebook or Twitter or other message boards. Places like that have lots of “anti SJW” right wing troll types who probably would go nuts. I remember the reaction over Iceman coming out, and his being into men (or at least not into women) was waaay more telegraphed than any attraction between Logan and Scott over the years. To me it was obvious and did not feel like that came out of left field at all.
