Bendis should've been more clear with that scene instead of "Bobby, you're gay..."
    Also sorry if I offended you, it wasn't my intention and I'll always support more LGBTQ characters in comics
    It wasn't ambiguous. You're reading in ambiguity that isn't there. She didn't make him gay. That's not what happened. That wasn't Bendis' intent, it's not how the scene played out, it's not what happened.

    Yeah, but Iceman being gay and not Jean "making" him that are facts.

    I never said that Iceman wasn't gay, I just think his outing was poorly handled and done by the worst possible character one could think of. He's gay (or full gay as Jeen said, does that mean anything?) and nothing is gonna change that

    She said that because he said maybe he was bi.

    Being that Bobby knows neither personally, wouldn't that imply that he needed licensed psychiatric treatment?

    The last ditch option is Emma Frost, but you gotta go with her under your own risk

    Ditto, it's not funny and incredibly inappropriate for this APPRECIATION thread And people who post such are not allies (and its delusional to think otherwise).

    I must admit, it does ruffle my fur when I read statements like "marvel made iceman gay". For reasons that really ought to be obvious right now

    Unless I missed it no one is saying Marvel made Bobby gay -- they're blaming Jean Grey.

    If your sole purpose IN AN APPRECIATION THREAD is knocking the outing of an LGBT character, you should stop posting in this thread....

    Yeah it's annoying to see people underselling or downplaying that.
