I accept DAI's Game of the Year award not just for elfroot, but for underrepresented healing herbs everywhere.

I've seen several articles about queerness in DA:I. I keep biting my tongue and wanting to take issue with Josephine's invisibility in them.

I worry that it comes across as self-centeredness for me to protest this, but bi erasure *IS* such an issue that I need to say it.

Josephine is bisexual. This doesn't disappear if your Inquisitor is male or if she's unromanced (and thereby attracted to Blackwall).
Allegra Clark @SimplyAllegra 34m34 minutes ago
That aspect of her identity is important, and @Sylvf1 did an amazing job of writing it respectfully, and I hate seeing it overlooked.

I know bisexual characters aren't strictly novel in DA (which is A+), but that doesn't make other characters' sexualities more "important."

CASE IN POINT: Josie doesn't balk at the idea of a relationship with Leliana because "ew girls" but because "EW SHE'S BASICALLY MY SISTER."

And if that's too subtle, and you needed her to go "but you know I still like ladies just not that lady" then dang, people. Dang.

@SimplyAllegra @Sylvf1 that's wrong, you're right to point that out.

@SimplyAllegra It was why I supported our move away from all bisexual romances. It came up a lot when I was at PAX 2013.

@AllanSchumacher Yeah, how bisexuality could be interpreted as playersexuality, which is unfair. I appreciated the change as well.
