I don't understand why people see this as wrong...except when a Female plays as a Male and calls herself "Gay." I mean...geez...just be a girl instead if that's what you're going for. >.>
That's a bit rude. I'm female, and I've played as a gay male character multiple times - sometimes I just prefer playing male characters. I shouldn't have to 'be a girl' rather than playing a gay male, I don't focus my entire roleplay on the relationship. What's wrong with that? How am I 'wrong' for doing this?
I have to agree with you 100/100, I'm an asexual male and my characters are either asexual or gay, does that mean that instead of making them homosexual males, I should of made them straight females?
Of course not, just as if I would of wanted to create a lesbian character, I would not of wanted a straight male, but a lesbian female.
Does that also mean that the opposite gender cannot create homosexual characters of the opposite gender or instead of homosexual characters of the same gender, they should make straight characters of the opposing gender?
Following this logic, it's almost as if homosexuals shouldn't exist in FH because you can create a straight character of the other gender.
Let's face it, this is a game where anyone can be anything, where they can accomplish things they maybe can't in real life and who are we to take that liberty and right away from them?
But I'll shut up now, it's 12:30 and my brain has gone out the window, I feel like I've completely twisted this statement 180 degrees and I apologize if it sounded like I was putting words in your mouth, as that was not my goal at all. I'm sure you didn't intend to start some sort of fight or to imply that gay/lesbians should not exist in a game where one can simply be the opposing gender. ... ... ... Did that sound sarcastic? It wasn't, I swear.
Edit: I think I completely soared off-topic with this post, my apologies for that.
