Re: Equality

[yeahscience]

Well, yes, that's why there's a balance, and it's important for people to think about these things when they do them, either way. I don't think anyone is saying "bad things can't happen ever." It's just that a writer needs to make sure of what they're doing and why. Does it really have to happen in XYZ way? Is ABC event the culmination of some other gross homophobic/racist/sexist shit happening? Thinking is key. Context is key.

In the BSG example, there were straight characters who also turned evil and died permanently (although notably, the most prominent one was also a woman of color), but it happened comparatively more with the queer characters. There was also a lot of attendant other grossness with those characters (for example, a bisexual male character whose one night stand with a woman was shown more graphically and given more weight than his serious long-term relationship with a man), so it became worthy of commentary.

In those cases then yeah, I think people have a right to complain. I agree that context matters a lot.
