Re: To you, what is necessary for a same-sex relationship to be considered canon?

[(Anonymous)]

Publishing endgame, I want for same-sex relationships to be treated with the same level of honesty and depth as mixed-sex relationships. Now I recognize that due to varying forms of censorship, that frequently doesn't happen. Still though, The Count of Monte Cristo used lesbian coding and subtext in 1844, so I give the side-eye to people who call coding and subtext super-progressive in 2020.

For mass media, I think LGBTQ relationships should be worthy of the same level of production dollars as Thor3 gave to Tony Stark's Pants. That joke about Tony Stark's Pants (a character who doesn't appear in the movie) cost thousands of dollars and involved hundreds of labor-hours. So for TV and movie production, I don't count claimed LGBTQ content if food service wasn't on set to make it happen. Otherwise we're giving Disney, Warner, and Sony a free pass on self-censorship if their talent is contrite about it through channels that cost them very little.

Also I agree with the recent Stevenson/Sugar interview that LGBTQ perspectives go way beyond just "is this couple canon or not." And that shows when LGBTQ people are in the writer's room and editorial.

I think you can look at a same-sex relationship and say it's canon, and still reject multinational entertainment corporations attempting to use that for advertising

Two separate questions
