I'm chubby and reaching mid twenties, and I'm too old looking to be a cub, too young to be a bear, too everything to fit anywhere, so I feel your pain. But I did have a lot of coming out drama, so I did like Dorian.

 

As a former "too chubby to be accepted, too young to be a bear, too old to be a cub" guy, I can say this:  once you firmly cross over into full-blown bear territory, it's pretty damned great.  In my mid-late 30's now, I've never gotten so much attention from guys.  Honestly, it's amazing how much I get hit on now, even with my husband with me.  Plus being a bear means that I don't have to worry obsessively about portion size! 

[Biotic Apostate]

You'll be a bear soon enough!

Thanks I sure hope so

I really needed to hear that, thank you. With everyone around me saying I need to be slim to be attractive, and my gym time and dieting having little effect, I need some positive comments. So, again, thank you for that. Also, congrats on getting married!

Yeah, it does some major queerbating. Granted, I can't stop watching the old episode, cause of this.

Knock knock, it's your my dream husband.

Too bad they straightwashed Hercules. 

[GoldenGail3]

You came off strong. Fair enough. I just get tired of 'let's kill Anders for the chantry' for also some personal reasons.

Yeah... Alright.

[GoldenGail3]

Too bad they straightwashed Hercules.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... He wasn't 'straight washed 'by people of our era. So it doesn't really count.

Dorian seems to remind me too much of Zevran in term of personality. Maybe it's just me, but these types of personality just don't appeal to me. I guess I'm more into clumsy, adorkable personality like Alistair or Danse, maybe shy like Cullen. 

 

Well, gay relationships often only get scraps anyway, so I guess I should be content with what we get. Even when adding more options, they just add 2 more options for female. I'm not against that, I just feel like even with a male heavy group of companions, I doubt it ever cross their mind that maybe more options would be open up to same-sex. I've made peace with it, I'm not really looking forward to the next ME to have our back consider their track record, but maybe they'll surprised me. It's cool to just keep a low expectation instead of getting your expectation crushes with DAI. I have zero interest in any of the option, which I go for Cassandra instead. It was the right choice though since she's very adorable and I love Tsundere characters. What I have against Iron Bull the most is not only the relationship is too joke like, people walking in on them or the Inquisitor can't walk for a day after sex, it's the BDSM not being optional. We will have to break off the relationship if you refuse that offer. As for Dorian, I've already told you why I don't like him. Too much Glee's afterschool special for my taste. 

 

I just hope that one day, they just give us an everyday guy. Why is it so hard to give us guys like Cullen, Alistair, and Kaidan? Seriously, the character model is gay, no gay romance for 3 games, and all they give us is an inferior version from FemShep? I'm glad that some of the developing team left, so maybe now that we would get treated with more respect, but I don't really have a lot of hope at this point right now. As I said, maybe I'll get proven wrong.

Was Zevran even a true gay romance? His plot of "I've had some gay sex before because that's a thing Crows do in Antiva, but I really don't like gay sex very much, but I'll gay sex a male Warden because I don't want him to lop my head off for trying to assassinate him" Doesn't exactly sound like a match made in Heaven.

 

I'm SO glad I changed his canon appearance in my DAO playthroughs those, his original blonde hair looked so hideous I can't even.

The unfortunate truth is these gay characters are probably made to appeal to heterosexuals first, and heterosexuals love their overly flamboyant and stylish gays with their heart of gold and endless sarcastic ways. As such I have a feeling that MEA is going to resort to another sassy gay stereotype again which is going to be terrible and ill fitting in a futuristic setting.

 

Maybe someone will get bashed over the head with an originality bat and give a sexy gay alien romance, or something, I don't know..

Maybe... But I like Dorian - he's awesome.

Awesome to go shopping with, maybe, as far as romance goes, he does have more feminine quality than the other typically "straight" characters.

Yeah, alright. That's true, but I keep on thinking about how people complain about serotypes and it make me think ... Well we've never had any character with things such as austim, ADHD, etc. I'd love if if they did manage one.... For my sakes, I'd be super happy if Bioware managed one (and yes, I'd image a ADHD character would be the easiest to manage, lol.)

Sera always comes across as a bit of ADHD to me, but it's a game, and a DA game set in medieval. I doubt they could even diagnose stuffs like that. 

[Lady Artifice]

FWIW, I never got the impression that Zevran was "made" to like men. It sounded to me like the Crows looked for bisexuality to be already present in their recruits, because it makes it easier to seduce and get close to various targets...

But personality-wise, I get why he's not everybody's cup of tea (even if he... and Dorian and Sera and Isabela... and other "roguish" but fundamentally good-hearted characters are totally my type). I mostly support the KISA archetype for the sake of other players, because there hasn't been that representation and experience for a lot of LGB people, rather than any interest of my own. Different strokes!

 

The Gay KISA thread. "Come for the controversy, stay for the company." 

 

I love flirtatious and roguish characters almost as much as you do, and typical KISAs are often too morally rigid to become my favorites, but I really think there's more room for more variety in the franchise even on a strictly artistic level. 

 

Gomez (I am never going to stop calling you that, name changes be damned), I don't recall. Have you shared what you're ideal DA KISA(s) would be like? 

[GoldenGail3]

I dunno, there's magic. And considering many people with undiagnosed austim make bad choices, I'd say that it could happen....

bear puns, well played Sir, well played.

 

Also, Elder Maxson the longer I look at him the hotter he gets

^And see, I adore those come-ons and flirtatious remarks!

Oh man, I loved Bishop. Such a douchenozzle, but in an entertaining, heartwrenching way. I thought his story ended just the way it should have in MotB - and even though the romance was axed, it STILL felt more complete than Casavir's. That's saying something.

 

Casavir? *shudders* It's bad when the LI is so boring you'd take Bishop's jerk self just for something better than watching paint dry.

So Lady? Why did chu change your name? Was it for ME:A (I asume it was; because there is no sentienal class in DA. Lol.).

Sentinel is a rank in the Brotherhood of Steel, a faction in Fallout 4. The faction where Danse and Maxson hail from.

I'm so confused.... ):

[SentinelMacDeath]

Cause I'm more of a Sentinel than I am a lady, also Brotherhood 4 life

The SS needs to become the Elder instead, so they can reinstate Danse.

[SentinelMacDeath]

I love how the SS still calls him Paladin Danse too, he'll always be my Paladin.

That's a shame, the numbers with him and Wolverine were nice. That's why I dislike the alternate universe runs, or the "lesser copies." I have no idea what happened to gay Green Lantern (after they fridged his boyfriend of course...). Young Avengers almost never update. It's a mess.
