[cupidsbow]

Some of you might have heard the recent suggestion about MJ from Spiderman being played by a guy, as a gay love interest. And I have an opinion about that, nay, a rant...

It has to be pretty clear by now that I'm all for positive gay representation in the media. Offer me a gay romance, and I'll be waving my rainbow pompoms and cheering, even if it

God, I fucking hope so. But given how few women there even are in the movies at the moment, I feel no great optimism. :(

Actually, I'm astounded that this has never been done, even without the queer aspect. It has to have been done... right? *can think of precisely zero examples*

It was done, but without the queer aspect. See Maya Lopez, aka Ronin (Marvel Comics).

Thanks for the heads up! Sounds like an interesting character.
