Dick being straight and being a self insert character for male fan is part of his character.

As for Cap, I think he's just awkward with women for the most part, not gay. But he defenitely loves Bucky like a brother.
I'd see either Dick Grayson or Spider-man, or Johnny Storm being Bi though. Wouldn't be too shocking.
I can actually see there being some unresolved sexual tension between Johnny and Peter.

There are a lot of boys today who wish they had a father figure to repair cars with.

Also keep in mind Dick Grayson is essentially Bruce's adopted son. I mean he flat out takes him in after he loses his parents. I don't know what age Dick is when Bruce takes him in (I think he's 10, or 12 at the most?), but he looks to Bruce as a father figure.

I often find it odd how often people overlook that "Robin" isn't just Batman's partner, he's essentially his adopted son and family.

Titans Go really promotes gay bashing? Why does Cartoon Network allow this?

There's another clip where Robin and Cyborg kiss but Robin's spits and wipes his lips like he's disgusted. Someone can post it here. I can't believe CN allowed that and this is a show aimed at kids not an adult comedy or anything.

Dis gon b gud.

So if you're about to go for your lesbian kiss, then some dude suddenly came in and you kissed his lips instead, you'd be fine with it too? Even enjoying and loving it?

I like the way this thread has transitioned.
At the start: Should they or shouldn't they?
Now: Boy. 1950's times were weird.

Batgirl was introduced because people had issue with Batman having a "Ward."

Teen Tians Go is actually pretty funny at times. People hated it cos it wasn't the Teen Titans they wanted and never gave it a chance.

As would I, because I'm straight too. That doesn't make us or anybody else "gay bashers", Cubed.

Being kissed by someone you didn't consent to kissing is disgusting.
Making it about gay/straight/bi leaves one open to the argument that they're -phobic.

I just went back and reread some of the tweets in that article....I like how someone actually said that after they turned Cap gay, to erase everything leading up to that point in the movie universe. Uhh...it doesnt work like that.

Ditto. Teen Titans Go is garbage. So many of the writers are piss-poor, humorless, talentless fools.

Except for Amy Wolfram. She usually writes pretty great episodes.

Sadly, since comics - both Marvel and DC - re-erase continuty every two or three years these days, and DoFP just did the same thing, I wouldn't blame someone for thinking that.
