Do you want to introduce infertility to the conversation?

 

No, it's a fair point! Let's discuss how BioWare totally fails to question the validity of the childfree lifestyle with all their rampant hetero procreational sexings. 

[Lenimph]

Ah look its my old nemesis the realism argument. 

 

But of course I'm bisexual so what do I know about reality. 

Excuse me while I go have fun with the unicorns.

I agree it's a fair point. However, it was not being discussed.

And, you're still not talking about a lifestyle. Outside of Hawke, but if I'm not mistaken Hawke's mother actually does mention that she wants grandchildren. Am I remembering incorrectly?

 

I suppose Mama Hawke is going to have to learn how to get used to disappointment if her child ends up in a same-sex relationship (or is that lifestyle? I'm confused). 

 

Though, really, that may be for the best. None of the four main romance options seem like they'd be a good co-parent. Sebastien probably would, but he refuses to sleep with you, soooo.....

I am clearly way too tired because I have no idea wtf this discussion is right now. Gay lifestyle being promoted by BW? You mean like all the straight flings you can have throughout the game, and the prostitutes you can hire? Is that the "lifestyle" being promoted for gay players that's acceptable for straight ones?

 

And I dunno about y'all, but I don't think getting knocked up when playing a straight female would really be conducive to the plot. I guess it could be an interesting side story, and then the bad guy can kidnap your kid and really make it personal...

 

...I'm going back to sleep.

Dorian's mission is the worst thing ever though, fact.

 

Even I could feel the agenda being shoved down the beginning of my digestive system.

 

(Try control + f-ing that, dave)

 

 

This thread reminds me why I have no interest in this forum anymore.

 

In response to the topic: It's a good idea, but it will never happen because Bioware has no interest, and in fact a vested interest in NOT, questioning the validity of the homosexual lifestyle*.

 

*Homosexual lifestyle refers to engaging in recreational sex that happens to be with members of the same sex, as opposed to procreational sex. There have been homosexuals who engaged in procreational sex for the sake of the family line/kingdom/whatever, and this isn't referring to that.

 

Every time I log in and check this thread I'm partly amused and partly disgusted. Fun times.

 

So, starting with Rubios. This is one of the fun ones. It's so out there and silly, you can't help but laugh. I suppose it's good to have this in any type of forum. Everyone has a laugh and everything is less tense.

 

Moving on to EntropicAngel. This is one of the not so fun ones. I mean really now. Someone using "homosexual lifestyle" in their vocabulary in any way other than a joke, and there's a smell here, I'm guessing it's not a joke, is probably impervious to logic, reason, etc, so why bother. What I think he/she is trying to say is that Bioware has a gay agenda and they try to shove said agenda down everyone's throat. Then the bizarre nonsense about "recreational sex" and "procreational sex" is further proof that this is one very angry individual.

 

I'll keep my distance, can anyone smack him/her with a gay agenda for me please? Thanks

I'm snarking as hard as I can!

Oh wait, I seem to recall in a Baldur's Gate game finding out the male courtiers would not let my male PC hire them.

 

I was sad. It was sad times. My gay agenda

[OHB MajorV]

I love strawmen. And I'm so angry right now. Me, Zune, and World Machine, all very very angry.

Have fun.


Good to know.

So just say it already, do you personally have a problem with bioware including homosexual relationships in DA?

[d4eaming]

This on your personal page

 

 

I have too many SUs to make. I meant to make one yesterday, but seeing a thread in the DA forums where everyone was shaming a person who asked if we could call Krem a she really...

 

Is cute. Gives a good clue about how you feel.

 

It's shaming to tell someone that using the wrong pronouns for another individual is wrong. I guaran-******-tee str8ty has met many transfolk and they didn't even notice it, and they'd be horrified to realize they used pronouns that go against their feels.

 

As if we give a **** what you feel about our identity.

I can't get that warrielf out of my head, and even though I am trying to resist playing him (I need to finish with my mage... and my rogue...)... He's just so freaking pretty.

Darling, I wasn't misrepresenting your opinion or stance in the slightest. I was very accurately pointing it out, even though you seem to try to be so very subtle about it So I'm afraid you need to come up with a different word for me.

Like OHB said, you should just come out, so to speak lol, and say what's on your mind. I'm sure it'll help you loosen up a bit.

I'm super curious what an in-universe 'questioning of the homosexual lifestyle' would look like. 

 

I mean, you sort of can, if Iron Bull and Dorian hook up. You can go to them and ask them all sorts of questions!

Why would it be any different than in reality? Both involve a person who doesn't know about it asking people who are part of it about it. 

 

Unless I am misinterpreting the use of the word questioning.

[TeraBat]

What kinds of questions? I must admit, my first playthrough was kind of a rush though just because I was more interested in the main story. And I'll be honest, the only characters I really found particularly interesting, initially at least, were Solas and Sera.

 

Dude, you're the one who started it by complaining that BioWare will not 'question the homosexual lifestyle.' Which you seemed to imply was about gay people having gay sex; as opposed to gay people having straight sex. 

[Rannik]

As far homosexual male relations go:

 

Kaidan > Cortez > Theron Shan > Blooming Rose's Dwarf > Anders >>>>>>> Zevran > Fenris > Dorian >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Iron Bull (eww Qunari).

 

Everyone knows that.

I'm snarking at EntropicAngel. A few posts back, he complained that BioWare refused to 'question the homosexual lifestyle.' I've been poking him about it ever since.

Agree about Kaidan and Theron, disagree about the rest.

[OHB MajorV]

Ok so say I'm more the dominant type and romance bull, is that considered taking the bull by the horns?

Spoiler

had to ask

[Rannik]

No, that's considered heresy and treason.

 

You should be looking for ways to kill those filthy Qunari spies, not bedding them.
