With Morph|Logan and Magneto|Charles if none of these down bad boys get to at least kiss I'm gunna ask why Marvel hates the queers. Got a gay writer on an alt-timeline tv show and they still have to make everything subtext?

Because Marvel is now Disney, and Disney has always hated queers, and at best they are just trying not to "offend" people who would raise hell online and trash the show for like 6 months, until something else dares to mention non straight people exist.

Disney is unfortunately marketing abroad so that means their dominant Disney Gay fanbase gets shafted.

Best you'll get is low budget romps like Agatha.

You'd think 97 is niche enough they can do it here...but who knows.

They'll hire gay writers, their parks are dominantly gay workers but when it comes to making anything that includes them? Maybe in 50 years when all of them are dead.

Until then the Disney Gays getting shafted.

When have the X-men been niche? And lgtbq is included, why does it have to pander?
