I can give my own insight here. Just about every time there’s a not straight couple in a game, we have a lot of people come out and say “keep politics out of games.”
I’ve tried to discuss this point with people, and how just having these things around isn’t political. Having straight and not straight couples should just be meh to people. Same with transgender people. To be told that what you are, is “political,” is a pretty uncomfortable thing to hear. Like it really just feels like stereotyping? To be not straight or transgender is immediately assumed to be some liberal LGBT secret agenda to take over the world.
Also, I’m using the term not straight, because in quite a lot of places actually using the term for what I am can get you banned 🤷

I’m sorry you get banned for being who you are that has to be rough. I’m from gen x so a bit older now but I remember growing up we didn’t care about any of that. In no way do I believe you as a person should be a pawn of politics and I don’t think your existence is of any political significance. Like me you’re just a person. But the movement is a political movement. That’s all I was getting at I suppose. Hey, if you want to have another fire team member to pal along with and you can enlighten me as to what it’s actually like to walk in your shoes I’m all for it. Just do the old friend request thing and when I’m on let’s get together.

Bummer I was guild hunting a bit ago too. My 12 year old son wanted to start a guild and so I’m in it. Don’t think I can bail on that one ha!!! We’re I think four strong!! I’m going to try this Bungie friend request thing though. Maybe it’ll work out and we’ll team up some time.
