I don't understand when people- especially other people in the community say an lgbt+ story is "too gay."
Cishet's can be as straight and cisnormative as they want and they don't tell each other "Hmm, maybe that is a little to straight."
So how can something be too gay? As long as folks have fleshed out characters, I don't care if they're going to gay bars every chapter or shooting rainbows.
Canon queer characters get fucking straight washed TO.THIS.DAY!!
I think everyone has the right to make their stories as gay as they want- if anything, they should make it gayer.
And this is coming from someone who writes characters sexualities with more "subtlety"
