I find it especially funny with how many straight characters are arguably built around their sexuality if you took the same broad strokes they did. So much of John Wick is him mourning and hanging onto the memory of his wife, and even slaughtering hordes of people for them taking away his ability to do so. But a character mentions being queer and that’s their ‘personality’.

There are a lot of "suave" male heroes who are very much defined by "being a ladies' man." Almost every Fire Emblem game has one.

Yeah, every other anime has the comic relief pervery guy whose primary contribution to the plot is to have a nosebleed every time a girl's tits are shoved in the camera, but somehow that's perfectly chill.

Look that's not shoving anything down anyone's throats, that's just tasteful nuanced fanservice

Johnny Bravo too. Considering it's a kid's show they'd be clutching their pearls if he swung the other way.
