I'm seriously asking and I want straight people to respond in a polite, serious manner. After Iceman being outed and now people arguing over whether or not Hercules, a character from ancient Greek myth, or Storm is bisexual or not it has me seriously wondering this question; what does it take for straight people to accept that a character is gay, lesbian or bisexual?
Various gay, lesbian and bisexual characters have been outed, or hinted at, in various ways over the years and some people seem to deny certain subtext or methods of outing. So what kind of method does it take for people to accept that a character is anything other than heterosexual?
