Do you say I can’t watch black peoples?[/quote]

Bit of a difference, don't you think? The athletes aren't characters in a story that may or may not be relatable to you.

The whole reason we are seeing more stories with gays, lesbians, etc. is because of a lack of representation in the past. But the converse of that is that a straight, married man might not find those characters to be relatable. That's not bigotry. It's entertainment and it doesn't interest him because he can't relate. That's all.

It isn't just a question of whether audiences can relate,  though that is certainly a part of it.  [b]Every casting decision,  every plot line, everything single thing is now being scrutinized for conformity with political correctness. [/b]

Sorry, but that just doesn't promote good writing,  nor the best acting.

Well, no. That's not true at all. What a strange take.

(I'm the pp who says it's understandable that a straight white man not relate to lesbian characters, but this notion that every Hollywood decision is contorted for political correctness is baseless).[/quote]
