No, forced diversity is when "diversity" is forced, it's self explanatory. As an example, a writer is writing a character for a game and is told said character has to be White, that would be forcing "diversity". I agree that people shouldn't be seen as just x, y and/or z, that's why I hate forced diversity. If someone doesn't want to/isn't comfortable writing someone of x, y or z they shouldn't have to, as in the end of the day that x, y and/or z is merely an intrinsic trait, people don't need it to be able to identify or enjoy a character and forcing a writer to write that more often than not just ends up with the character being stereotypical/bad because the writer didn't know how to/wasn't comfortable with writing that character. As for Ana being well written, I agree. The 3rd novel however was not. The romance popped up out of almost no where, the character was completely new to the lore to my knowledge and as such took away from Anas achievements to attempt to build some sort of character. I didn't not like the character nor the romance because I'm a homophobe, as (for 1) that would imply I'm scared of gay people (why would I be?) And (for 2) that would imply that the relationship being a gay one would be intrinsically bad, which is definitely not the case in the destiny universe. Look to wei ning as a perfect example here. That character was perfectly written, as was the romance.
