Yeah, it can be pretty awesome in fic. Maybe, SOME DAY....

I sometimes love the concept of fantasy worlds for this reason: you can potentially get worlds where there is absolutely no homophobia/biphobia at all or it's only something really out there cults would get into if even that. I mean why not? In a fantasy world you can have ENTIRELY DIFFERENT GODS AND RELIGIONS shaping societies and thus attitudes. Also if they're interactive gods they might keep a close eye on the interpretation of their holy texts. And if they're actually dicks, people in fantasy can sometimes admit their gods are dicks.

It's actually pretty easy to imagine a world where homophobia is not really an issue. And heck in such a world we can also imagine misogyny isn't that major an issue- since they can often be connected. Homophobia can be based on an over-reliance on sticking to hard and fast gender roles in hetrosexual relationships, thus thinking other kinds of relationships can't work for this reason.

And I think if a straight man can have an interesting conflict in a story so can a lesbian without some dudebro in the background saying she needs to get back in the kitchen and find herself a good man when she brings out a decent sandwich.
