Dean Cain Slams Superman Coming Out as Bisexual: “It Isn’t Bold or Brave” https://t.co/Ybg1BagcS9 - The Hollywood Reporter (@THR) October 12, 2021 - Says it's 'bandwagoning' and would have been considered shocking 20 years ago

The right wing doesn't care about gay rights anywhere. It's an anti-Muslim talking point. When the left wing elects a Muslim or campaigns to allow a Ramadan celebration as part of a holiday event in a public school, they're all "how could you celebrate these evil people who throw homosexuals off of buildings?????!!!" but when their little Brayden or Hunter or whatever beats the gay kid in school up for looking at him the wrong way and then gets in trouble for it, "my boy's being persecuted for expressing his faith!!! He's a good kid and has accepted Christ into his life, so it's not my job to punish him!!!"
He also mentioned women [Spoiler (click to open)]women getting raped in Afghanistan by the Taliban but I didn't put that on the list because you know his ass doesn't give a shit about women and is just using it to be a racist bigot.
From experience, if a person counters any argument with a ‘but the gays in Afghanistan’, then 99.9% of the time they don’t care about the gays in Afghanistan. That and death are the only two guarantees in life at this point.
Why should it matter if it’s not “bold or brave?” 🙄 and what does other things existing that he feels are more important have to do with it? People can be happy about this one thing and care about other stuff too. Are we going to hear the opinions of every other person who’s portrayed Superman now??
Sounds like instead of giving Clark Kent glasses (maybe hundreds of years ago when glasses were invented that would have been a bold choice but not today!) they should make him go be an optometrist in Africa or become a doctor who solves blindness or something!
I thought Connor Kent was the one who came out as bi and i thought omg dc is really gonna do it and make tim drake x connor an actual thing after decades of shippers shipping them
Nah, DC clearly has some kind of “Robins shall not seriously date Supers” thing so they mixed it up for us in a way that people are unlikely to ship. (I actually almost get it, tying major characters together like that is risky because of the constant back and forth. Look at BatCat or DickBabs Vs DickKori. Messy. But also I want messy gay soapy superhero relationships that span decades, damnit.)

Is there a way to erase him from every copy of The Broken Hearts Club Arkangel-style a la Black Mirror?
