Gaider answered that question on his twitter last night, it's because they want to tell different stories. Beat me what that is exactly.

 

Sounds pretty much like an excuse to me, also the link he gave is about changing a gay character into bi, also against everyone being bi and erasing homosexual representation, so changing just one character from straight to bi has nothing to do with those things.

Excuse for what?

I don't know why the assumption almost always seems to be that she'd have to have had a super srs relationship where they are super in love and totally like soul mates until fate cruelly rips them apart as she stoically chooses her duty over her lover or whatever. Either that or she's a virgin.

 

What if she's had tons of casual sex to blow off some steam just because sex is fun and people have urges?

Oh i read it, but you seems to generalize and equate a rape scenario to someone preferring lighter skin on a character or altering said characters sexuality and excuse away similar actions when it comes to changing canonly straight characters to suit gay/lesbian player/readers.
 
And as i said i object to any altering of character canon, but you are making assumption about the personal character of individuals who create such mods based on subjective evidence.
 
But i doubt much will come of this discussion, we can agree to disagree and get back to the topic at hand: Cass.


Rape? WTF?

We are talking about medieval fantasy here. Contraception as we know it doesn't exist, if at all (contraceptive magic?). I'd say that non-virgin heterosexual females who are not in a permanent arrangement would be in the minority. The fun didn't start for us in the real world till the 60's either ;)

 

Humanity has been using contraception since Ancient Egypt...

Poor Cassandra is women fighting to save the world but she has one little problem....She's a virgin!

Now Cassandra must win both a great war and the heart of her leader.

Featuring: Cullen, Josephine, Leliana, and Robb Schneider in the action packed romantic comedy of the year.

The Virgin Dragon Slayer

Rated PG-13.

Pfff hahaha. Is it the Dragon slayer or the dragon who is a virgin?

 

Seriously, now that we know she is straight, people are going to go crazy over whether or not she's a virgin. I would very much like my inquisitor to ask her that question only to get a resounding slap in the face for an answer. Cassie doesn't approve of such talk.  :lol:

"Is it an image of a male Inquisitor snuggling with Sera or is it an image of a well-hung Qunquisitor spraying down Sera's DD breasts while her mouth hangs open in some sort of horrid 'sexy' facial contortion"

 

If you were not alluding to corrective rape then i apologize for assuming.

She just doesn't seem the casual sex type. Plus even that requires the usual (and completely fake)song and dance routine to get between the sheets, if its not as bad for females. I can't really see her bothering with that crap.

Why would her virginity be an issue anyway?

I remember those threads that were speculating whether Hawke was a virgin. Good times.

I am also interested in what straight woman story they're going to tell with Cassandra.
 


Why do you think he's a virgin? We've seen married Templars and Templars in brothels. I'm going to guess that he's been hit on and propositioned previously.

Hopefully, we're not getting another Sebastion.

 

You remember Cullen right? Maybe you need a memory refresh.

 

It's the guy who runaway if the girl he is interesting in hit on him in the DAO mage origin.

It's the guy who can't enter a brothel in DA2 so he ask Hawke to do it for him.

 

He is also still hung up on female Warden mage in DA2 from what I remember (if imported).

For that she needs to be straight for her story to be different from other characters and that being bi would somehow make her story too similar to other characters.

My Hawk certainly was a virgin in act 1, since Isabela asked him to join her in her room, but he was actually never able to do such thing. He had sex three years laters lol.

No... I don't think ejaculating on a woman's breasts is rape.

I appreciate you clarifying.

And no, I don't think that straight people who write fiction or make fan art where a gay character is sexually or romantically involved with someone of the opposite sex are doing something wrong. Though I sometimes find the work itself problematic.

Thank you for the discussion.

It's sentences like this that make me happy that I ever stumbled upon BSN.

She just doesn't seem the casual sex type.

It helps a lot when you stop thinking of people in terms of types, and start treating them like individuals.

Of course, that means more effort and less opportunity for easy, lazy stereotyping, but it's a fair price imo.

You do realise however that if she hasn't consented to it it is pretty serious sexual assault though right?

People are getting too hung up on this straight/bi/lesbian thing. It's like her orientation has somehow made her less interesting because a group of people can't do the whole LI thing. I'm sorry ladies, really I am. But can't you enjoy the character just the same? This basically proves that interest for the character was more about 'but can my PC bed her' than Cassandra herself. I find this as absurd as killing Zevran for hitting on my PC (I actually know people who have done this).

And no, I don't think that straight people who write fiction or make fan art where a gay character is with a moment of the opposite sex are doing something wrong. Though I sometimes find the work itself problematic.

Thank you for the discussion.

It was more the "her mouth hangs open in some sort of horrid 'sexy' facial contortion" then the ejaculating on a woman's breasts that had me assuming, but if that wasn't the point of your post then it was just a case of miscommunication, i personally find all works that mess with a character's canon problematic so i get where you are coming form.

 

Now to the topic of CC (Cassandra's Cherry ;P) she might be a virgin, we are told she is a romantic and if we choose to assume she had no time for any meaningful relationships, she could conceivably be a virgin.

 

Would a romantic person even be interested in casual sex?
