Changing sexualities of the modern X-Men

[Devaishwarya]

Bisexuality is portrayed badly in American fictional media anyway.



Dev, you're acting as if it's your 1st week on the internet.



Well Ayala is a better writer than Howard so it'll take time.

LOL. I really should know better to not be surprised by most things I read here.

Wait!

Some people really thought that Logan and Scott's tongue-in-cheek witty banter about Scott in speedos was them actually flirting with each other and an indicator that they were also fucking?

Oh dear...

My thoughts exactly.

People need to spend less time projecting.

People can joke and two people can be close with them being lovers.

Where is this panel from? Thx

Pixie Strikes Back.

It should be noted this is the result of Mastermind, Lady Mastermind, and the demon Saturnine messing with everyone's heads and basically creating a false reality for them.

What about the Pride Cover where they are marching with Jean? What about the conected rooms?

[Frobisher]

All X-Men are automatically queer apart from Logan, who thinks "queer" means doing anything other than missionary with the lights out.

... People need to spend less time projecting...

That goes both ways...

Coincidentally enough, blue & green have always been my favorite colors.

maybe they just like making sandwiches together ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The quite explicit conversation, especially considering that WE KNOW they were in a poly relationship, and they were flirting about how they would look in thongs lol, not wanting to oil the obvious is something else, that conversation leaves no doubt, the room in the Summers ( and Logan ) house, and THEY CAME OUT IN THE issue to The PRIDE.


That some don't want to accept it (and I don't know why) is something else but I think Hickman was quite clear. IT WAS MORE EVIDENT WITH THAT CONVERSATION BETWEEN SCOTT AND LOGAN ON THE MOON.
really what's wrong with being bisex??????
they defend it as if it's a bad thing,.something to be more ashamed of is the poly relationship, but there is nothing of to being ashamed of being bisex/gay/trans.

Sorry, two guys clowning around with each other with locker room humor doesn't mean a damn thing.

Geeze. Grow up.

Marvel would be happy if everyone forgot that movie ever existed.

Suspect they would be happier if every one involved with it including the movie fans wound up as Limbo Demon Chow....

So...straight people (and we agree that Jean is unequivocally straight) can't be openly supportive of gays?
The connected rooms just indicated their polyamory (which was never really in doubt, if not explored)...and when last I checked polys can be exclusively straight.

But you know what...you believe what you may.

[PolarIceFire]

As any well-adjusted grownup will tell ya, leaving things open to interpretation means... just that. And, that's it's almost always intentional. I would eXpect even amateur provocateurs are aware of this. That some are seemingly so easily threatened, speaks volumes, and says more about them than otherwise. After all, it's quite simple, just...

... believe what you may.

I mean, relaX... it's just seX.

Honestly, I think a big part of some of it is the shipping wars. War never changes.

[Devaishwarya]

Leaving things up to interpretation is all well and good until you realise there is an absolute lack of reading comprehension skills. And if one cannot read/understand the difference between wry banter and sexual flirting then...

As I expressed earlier, I would say the majority of readers, myself included (gay and straight) here and elsewhere are far less threatened by "all the gayness" than the poor writing and subsequent disregard of said gayness.

It is what it is.

[PolarIceFire]

So you say, that... doesn't make it true, however.

Want to second this thought. I have no objection to queer characters. I do have objections to bad and lazy writing, as well as writers who either don't bother to learn a character's multi-decade history or, even worse, simply don't care about anything but the story they are presently telling. It is a disservice to their predecessors, the fans, and the characters as literary devices meant to move forward into other stories.
