Should there be a strong LGBTQ+ presence on "Rise of the TMNT"?

*Andrew NDB* · 02-01-2018, 02:35 PM

What do you folks think? Is it time for the latest TMNT show to embrace the growing LGBTQ community? A gay Raphael, lesbian April, maybe a Splinter transitioning to female? Maybe a twist could be that Oroku Saki is actually a post-op... Karai?

No I haven't.

Everyone is bisexual until proved otherwise, so there's already a strong LBGTQ+ presence

*CyberCubed* · 02-01-2018, 02:42 PM

April should be cis who identifies as a female but is also non-binary and people should refer to her as "ze" or "zer."

Wouldn't that make her not CIS, but "Genderqueer"? I thought I read that somewhere.

Oh Andrew, you devilish rogue

you love getting people worked up

I'm surprised you didn't include a poll in this thread

*newfan* · 02-01-2018, 03:07 PM

The last one like this ended up in the disintigrator....
..... and no Andrew, you're not turning my girl in to Shredder

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 02-01-2018, 03:10 PM

This entire forum is just going to be utter bullsh!t for the next month or so, isn't it?

Thanks, Rise...

That was about BayTurtles Movie #3, and it went sideways.

What do you mean? Karai dressed up in Shredder's armor to fool the Shredder Elite back in "City at War"... perhaps the writing was on the wall, even then?

I’m not sure we are ready for that. At least not all at once.

Quoted for truth.

Shredder should be gay, imagine the story line potential for this.

*wpugh2424* · 02-01-2018, 03:45 PM

I have no problem anyone's preference. One of my best friends is gay, but this does not need to be shown to young minds in my opinion

*plastroncafe* · 02-01-2018, 03:49 PM

I have this wonderful mental image of you and your best friend hanging out, and then a young mind should happen by, and you just tackle this friend so as to keep them out of sight.

Lost to the comment

*wpugh2424* · 02-01-2018, 03:54 PM

I don't hide my friend. We both went to medical school together and did residency together but I just don't want my children exposed to things regarding sexuality too young

*Candy Kappa* · 02-01-2018, 03:59 PM

I know what you mean, one of my best friends is a straight but I wouldn't want that hetero stuff shown to kids.

*wpugh2424* · 02-01-2018, 04:04 PM

It's all a matter of opinion which is what this thread is about
No offense to anyone. I love everyone but it's just a parenting choice is all
