Default Why isnt their a movie with a gay main character...
... with the main story not being about their sexuality?

Like most gay character in films or books have stories created around their sexuality.

Why cant there just be one where their in a relationship already but the whole thing around being gay isnt even questioned.

or a gay superhero that doesnt focus on the sexuality.

Hmm....

maybe there is, but because it's not about their sexuality you didn't notice...?

Oh please, Dumbledore being gay was such a cop-out. There's "it's not a big deal" and then there's "it was never ****ing mentioned at all". She might as well have said in an interview "OH BY THE WAY GUYS GINNY WAS BLACK"

If the storyline isnt about the character's sexuality its irrelevant either way if theyre straight, gay, bi, attracted to microwaves etc.
