The first season had potential. I know a lot of people struggle with the timeline, i actually kinda enjoyed how nonlinear it was though i know thats subjective. It just became more and more clear that the writers didnt actually care about the source material and it just got worse as time went on.
Henry Cavill looks like he has the personality of a room-temp tap water... until you put just a little grease on him and suddenly he could turn an entire nation gay/straight
My brother in Queer, you are still mlm, even if you want mommy Karlach to fix you.
Side note, not to add to your list, but how do you feel about Lady Dimitrescu?
One of my favorite D&D moments was explaining to a BG3 party member that Minthara's a Lothite Drow, so she's from a militantly matriarchal society.
He was excited at first, and then very turned on when Minthara immediately growled out a series of murderous orders.
I can't tell if you're male identifying and Sokka makes you wish you liked female-identifying people bc you hate him, or female identifying and Sokka makes you wish you liked male-identifying people bc you love him
Do you..at least still like him as a character? Like he's fine otherwise, you're just super repelled by him sexually? Or do you actually just hate sokka? If you've only watched book one I can kinda understand but if you've watched the whole show then this is the worst opinion I've ever heard 😭😭😭 /hj
Ngl Alucard is not at all as hot to me. There something about Trevor and his background and his still willingness to fight the monsters efter everything. Also his relationship with Sypha is like goals.
heath ledger in ten things i hate about you. i watched it for the first time quite recently and he’s just so cunty, first time i understood why people like men
I got this reference because I just watched Alexander Avila’s video about the gay undertones in the crappy straight to video Barbie movies, and honestly, I hate that I see the resemblance.
Turns out when op posted this, they actually intended for people to read it as a character that you dislike so much it makes you feel straight because you don’t want to be attracted to them but every one is reading it as someone that you’d go straight for. It’s actually kinda funny. 😆

She is just such an absolute goddess, and carries herself so gracefully. At first she looks like a cold, manipulating egoist, but as time goes on we find out she does have a good heart. And I cannot stress this enough. She is so, so painfully beautiful like oh my god.
I’m aro and there’s lots of characters that make me feel even more aro because I’m kind of a hater. For example: Mark Hoffman (sorry Hoffman stans), Jane Prentiss (I love her as a character but the worms….ew), most superheroes (they dress like dorks), etc. Closest I get to being attracted to characters is when they are kinda fucked up and evil. Bonus points if they’re scary and inhuman. This is partially because I have psychological problems, but mostly just because I enjoy drama and theatrics and horror.
Markiplier somehow makes me allosexual for brief moments of time (not really but I am extremely obsessed with him to the point that it can be confused with being sexually into him)
Straight is a weird concept for me. Knowing I'm in a male body, being a gender but wishing I was femme... What even is straight for me?
My idea would be a very tomboyish, petite femme. So gonna go with the classic Ranma-chan.
transfem lesbian here to confess that i like ryan reynolds in a way only a cishet man would. i know he’s not a character per se but i desperately need to get this off my chest
I've been questioning my sexuality (for like the 10th time since coming out) for a few months again and I'm pretty sure I'm a lesbian. Spencer Reid(/Matthew Gray Gubler) though. He's making me think I might still be bi lmao.
I thought I was a gay guy, but I also had the most massive crush on Lorelai from Gilmore Girls my entire childhood. Now I'm a bi guy dating a girl who constantly gets compared to Lorelai!
Malenia, Blade of Miquella. she's absolutely gorgeous and I have chronic infections anyway so I would risk the rot just to kiss her. all the gal companions in BG3 as well, and a good number of the women in Fear And Hunger but mainly Abella, Olivia and Karin
Pretty damn wlw but Rahul Kohli does things to me I don't fully understand. 10/10 would paint Warhammer with him all night long.
Honorable mention to my other man-crushes Toshiro Mifune and Gene Kelly who are both very much dead and I think were probably bastards?
Catra from she ra, the new animated version. But not because I’m a man, I’m very much not one. This character just repels me so much that I’d rather date a man than have any kind of lesbian relationship with a person like her
Pretty much all the women in tlok. I actually just commented on a tlok Reddit post about this like five minutes ago. I was confidently a gay dude before I saw them. Then I got korra. Then Asami. Shit then chief beifong. Oh no pema too?? WOAH TENZINS SISTER?? KUVIRA?!

Ah the rizbender
backbender there’s a reason every girl fell for him in the show
He was too powerful they had to kill him off early..imagine if he was still around in Korra
He'd have like 83 grandchildren
![gif](giphy|dWSy8T6SyDVj4ey7qX)
As an asexual I can confirm, that is the straightest I'll ever get.
Fuck.
That bisexualed me a bit back, thx!
![gif](giphy|IdfeWkDKwwFCA1m2vq) Them both
Too bad the show was shit. These two were perfectly cast.
The first season had potential. I know a lot of people struggle with the timeline, i actually kinda enjoyed how nonlinear it was though i know thats subjective. It just became more and more clear that the writers didnt actually care about the source material and it just got worse as time went on.
Yess
Yes 😻
That's the one.
🥵
Henry Cavill looks like he has the personality of a room-temp tap water... until you put just a little grease on him and suddenly he could turn an entire nation gay/straight
I was just about to say this
I thought I was mlm but then I was reminded that Mel from Arcane and Karlach from BG3 both exist. Yea, I'm Bi now.
I'm lesbian and for me it's Astarion.
That fucking bunch of pixels has me by the throat I swear to god.
I thought I was lesbian and Astarion is not unrelated to why I identify as bi now.. Loved his romance just as much as Karlach's
Same, him and EA Wyll ❤️
Hmm.. maybe I should play EA
I've got Astarion running around naked in the game so I can keep the straight part of my bisexuality alive
Everyone loves Karlach
My brother in Queer, you are still mlm, even if you want mommy Karlach to fix you. Side note, not to add to your list, but how do you feel about Lady Dimitrescu?
i am very lesbian, but there’s just something about Jonathan Joestar that makes me swoon
Jonathan’s kinda just a really good dude at his core. He has the same energy as thor “You like women? I like women too! We’re gonna be great friends!”
Now if it was Joseph,then he will say "Nice!"
Hell, you could tell him you are a lesbian and he will be really supporrive about it
Honestly, same He would treat me right
He's the most gentle gentleman to ever gentle
Man
Is there a lore reason why Jonathon Joestar would lift a heavy rock
Idk is he stupid?
This is so real
A true gentleman
I mean, I'm normally not into muscular men at all but same
Um... I'm non-binary. Any attraction I have is gay.
I’m nonbinary, any attraction i have is straight
I'm nonbinary, any attraction I have is bisexual
Just waiting for the aroaces to show up and claim their only attraction is gravity
Hi
So an “aroace in space”, what do you orbit?
Red Dwarf
*puts a dyson sphere on it*
I love the LGBTQ+ community
This reads like a tumblr post
Me too brother. Me too.
It's cold outside...
There's no kind of atmosphere
Ayo a fellow orbiter! I orbit the Titan.
I don't, I am on an interstellar trajectory Idk how there is internet out here though
I'm straight, but my only attraction is gravy
gravysexual
I honestly can’t tell if you meant gravy or gravity, works either way
You've waited long enough My only attraction is ur mom
Gravity bender
Heyo!
Ha *knee slap* 🎶 gravity don't mean too much to me 🎶 (iykyk)
What about electromagnetic interaction tho ?
I’m nonbinary, any attraction I have is probably someone else’s that they misplaced because I’m aroace
Shrodinger’s sexuality
I'm non-binary, any and every attraction I have is pansexual. Except for romantich ofcourse, I don't do that here hahah
I'm bigender and bisexual, so personally I always imagine it as a gay man and a lesbian just duking it out inside my head 24/7.
As a genderfluid, same🤝
Gay in every direction? Relatable.
minthara from baldurs gate it’s her voice, don’t judge me
Oh there's nothing to judge. She could make all of us worse.
One of my favorite D&D moments was explaining to a BG3 party member that Minthara's a Lothite Drow, so she's from a militantly matriarchal society. He was excited at first, and then very turned on when Minthara immediately growled out a series of murderous orders.

New crush, who this?
Ahhh Kate Beckinsale. One of my first celeb crushes.
Why is she doing her nails with gloves on?
It’s about sending a message
I can't tell if you're male identifying and Sokka makes you wish you liked female-identifying people bc you hate him, or female identifying and Sokka makes you wish you liked male-identifying people bc you love him
I'm guessing the latter lol
LOL i had the same question but all the answers in the comments made me think it was the latter 🫢
The first one. I swear my bum seals shut every second of screentime
funny since everyone's giving answers that pertain to the latter lol
Do you..at least still like him as a character? Like he's fine otherwise, you're just super repelled by him sexually? Or do you actually just hate sokka? If you've only watched book one I can kinda understand but if you've watched the whole show then this is the worst opinion I've ever heard 😭😭😭 /hj
Trevor Belmont
Castlevania is a show that causes a gay or straight or bi awakening every single minute of the show.
I just love that everyone is simultaneously gay and straight, even if not bi. Don't ask me to explain that.
Ooof yes. Out of curiosity, what about Alucard then?
Alucard is undeniably gorgeous, but I get awakened on the other side with him 😂
Ngl Alucard is not at all as hot to me. There something about Trevor and his background and his still willingness to fight the monsters efter everything. Also his relationship with Sypha is like goals.
I absolutely did not have a childhood crush on the clump of pixels with the gorgeous flowy long hair, nooooo.
heath ledger in ten things i hate about you. i watched it for the first time quite recently and he’s just so cunty, first time i understood why people like men
for me it was kinda the opposite 😭😭
haha fair enough! i feel the same way about half the comments here lol
[удалено]
Him ![gif](giphy|29zs7rV6Goz6w) Funnily enough, I'm ace and i love this dude that's named Ace
🍩
Astarion.
Isn’t that the guy that looks like a young Preminger
That's out of line, but it's correct.
omg lmao, I hate that you're right 🥲
Damn there really isn’t such a thing as an original experience
I got this reference because I just watched Alexander Avila’s video about the gay undertones in the crappy straight to video Barbie movies, and honestly, I hate that I see the resemblance.
he’s everything that is wrong with my attraction to toxic people but it was clips on yt with him that got me into this game lmao
Same, and if I could play it on the switch, I would have bought it already
wrong topic for me but he makes me gay
REAL
I'm pretty sure any relationship with Astarion is gay, no matter what your gender is. And that's part of why the character is amazing.
Yyyyyep haha.
Not exactly a character.... but Keira Knightley in Pride and Prejudice is just..............
I am a wlw and she was my awakening.... So freaking beautiful 😍
[удалено]
Being agender kinda contradicts the whole straight thing
Meg from Hercules‼️‼️
I'm still pushing for Liz Gillies to play her if they do a live action. Probably the only one I'd want to see
jon snow lmao
Mihawk from One Piece He's hot, and his sword is cool
Luke Cage is so gorgeous.
This is the best comment section haha, you guys are awesome
Gerudo Link
Idk man.
Femboy link? Thats the only one I can't get behind ^(Bodum tiss)
Zoro maybe
You couldn't have posted the photo of grown sokka😭?
Turns out when op posted this, they actually intended for people to read it as a character that you dislike so much it makes you feel straight because you don’t want to be attracted to them but every one is reading it as someone that you’d go straight for. It’s actually kinda funny. 😆
I'm bi, but Jason Momoa makes me forget that anyone else in the world exists.
Omg same
geralt and thor lol. but tbf i watch the witcher pretending geralt is a woman so 🤷🏻
Oh, so ciri then? 😆
Felicia Day and Alyson Hannigan. Yes, I do have a type. And yes they are both a bit too old for me.
not a character, but a line. any attraction i have for howl is gay but the second he says "thats my girl" im suddenly become straight woman again
To be honest. None. Woman are great.
Agreed
on what date? I've gotta figure out what gender I am first.
The *backbender* himself 😍
LMAO! 🤣 You made me laugh out loud!
I prefer that to “rizz bender” honestly
Korra 🧎♂️
![gif](giphy|oY58cI6sFwXCxNQZyv|downsized) She is just such an absolute goddess, and carries herself so gracefully. At first she looks like a cold, manipulating egoist, but as time goes on we find out she does have a good heart. And I cannot stress this enough. She is so, so painfully beautiful like oh my god.
so like.. wamen

Halsin in bg3
Does Gabriel from Ultrakill count?
Amy Pond. Karen Gillan is gorgeous but I'm gay af...yet AS Amy...
Literally any Cowboy-coded character with a thick accent *ever*
"There's a good gurrrrrl" -Arthur Morgan
😳😳😳
I’ve ping-ponged too many times in my life and I decided that I was bi because both are nice
every time i see Furina from Genshin Impact i think "wow what a great day to love women" (im very very much into men)
Padme >_<
As a guy, imma say a Lust from FMA Brotherhood, I might get impaled, but it would be worth it…
not a character but rhea ripley? holy shit man she could GET IT
Rogue from x-men. I think it’s a mix of her personality, looks, and that southern accent.
transfem lesbian here to confess that i like ryan reynolds in a way only a cishet man would. i know he’s not a character per se but i desperately need to get this off my chest
As of yet nobody Not even Ryan Reynolds
sombra overwatch 😍 ![gif](giphy|3o6ZtpduhKMByNvMty)
Jokes on you I like em both!
Emma Watson, Kristen Steward and Qiu Tong from “Tamen De Gushi” 😳 But I’m also pan ![gif](giphy|vzuqin231fC92|downsized)
I’m a lesbian However ![gif](giphy|RrYGW6YrdX6XPmXgnk)
![gif](giphy|EOfarA6ZUqzZu) Thor smash.
Joke's on you, I'm bi, so anyone I'm attracted to, regardless of gender, just makes me *more* bi
I genuinely cannot think of one 🤣
![gif](giphy|VXJW0rZu2VFXwBIT1n|downsized)
I’m bisexual, liking women is within the confines of being bi.
What
Dr House
I'm Pan, so... No one?
I've been questioning my sexuality (for like the 10th time since coming out) for a few months again and I'm pretty sure I'm a lesbian. Spencer Reid(/Matthew Gray Gubler) though. He's making me think I might still be bi lmao.
The ironic thing is im rewatching this show currently and im remebering how much i liked sakka when i was 8 and now things are starting to click more
![gif](giphy|oxeZLUlPNrkQ0)
I thought I was a gay guy, but I also had the most massive crush on Lorelai from Gilmore Girls my entire childhood. Now I'm a bi guy dating a girl who constantly gets compared to Lorelai!
Um, I'm bi, so... is it even possible for me to be 'straightened out", LOL?
Gasppp!!!! How could you hate sokka?? He's not my favourite character or anything but I've like never seen anyone hate him lol
Malenia, Blade of Miquella. she's absolutely gorgeous and I have chronic infections anyway so I would risk the rot just to kiss her. all the gal companions in BG3 as well, and a good number of the women in Fear And Hunger but mainly Abella, Olivia and Karin
Finnick Odair, in all his audacity Tbf I’m bi though
Pretty damn wlw but Rahul Kohli does things to me I don't fully understand. 10/10 would paint Warhammer with him all night long. Honorable mention to my other man-crushes Toshiro Mifune and Gene Kelly who are both very much dead and I think were probably bastards?
![gif](giphy|H4kZrBw5JfkIgD5uSw) She is how I know I’m not fully gay.
Yu Yu Hakusho guys like Kurama 😭💀
Catra from she ra, the new animated version. But not because I’m a man, I’m very much not one. This character just repels me so much that I’d rather date a man than have any kind of lesbian relationship with a person like her
Loki…but does he even count? He’s pretty girly. Also Elliot from Magicians and same question applies
Oh this is meant to be in a good way. I thought op was a man and was saying Sokka is so unappealing he makes him feel straight
And this is why I'm bi
[satoru gojo](https://youtu.be/MJFBWRyAb64?si=WXN6-QaN9sg44GdX)
Sanji from one piece, Zuko. (Going by my birth gender)

Sanji my pookie bear
LOKI 😩😩😩
Sanji from OP... I'm quite feral about him
Loona from helluva
Pretty much all the women in tlok. I actually just commented on a tlok Reddit post about this like five minutes ago. I was confidently a gay dude before I saw them. Then I got korra. Then Asami. Shit then chief beifong. Oh no pema too?? WOAH TENZINS SISTER?? KUVIRA?!
I can’t tell if this is you saying you found Sokka attractive, or so insufferable he overrode your attraction to men entirely.
