Honestly, even if you don't write sci-fi, lesbian relationships aren't all dealing with bigotry all the time. I came out in a small town while still in high school, and I can count the number of times my first gf and I had to handle active bigotry during our year and a half relationship on one hand. I'd imagine if you set your story somewhere more liberal, even in the real, modern world, you could easily have it just not come up (especially for something like a movie that takes place in a short period of time and where the relationship isn't the main focus).

That's all very true. But if we're talking about the perspective that the relationship will somehow "ring false" because an imaginary world with (for example) space ships and aliens (who could not fall into any gender we as humans have), space battles etc. is accepting of any sort of couple at all... well, that seems like a pretty bullshit excuse to stick to "that's the way it's done" mentality.

If you're bothering to create an entire world, why wouldn't the cultural aspect of acceptance be something that could be tweaked from our world?
