Narishma would've been perfect, and would've made sense... lilltempest Send a noteboard - 14/01/2013 06:50:32 PM
Unusually, not a single mention of pillow friends in AMOL.

Just "Boom - here's a gay man. BOOM -here's another".

After years of it being slightly more subtle, pillow friends took me a while to work out (but then I was quite young), Sanderson just banged us round the head with it. Well done that man.


I gave up on Narishma some time ago but oh well


A scene where Merise does something decent, for a change, and releases him from the bond because he has finally come clean with her and told her he was in love with another Asha'man (maybe even the dude that was shown as being gay). It would've made Merise a more sympathetic character and would've had a freaking purpose instead of just bringing in two nobodies and pointing at them, "SEE, THEY'RE GAY!! Yay me, I filled in the blank!!". :rolleyes:

That you're offended at gay people for having the temerity to exist is hilarious. Ghavrel - 13/01/2013 12:15:48 PM 1202 Views
Nothing she said indicated that; she only objected to throwaway characters for the sake of gayness. Joel - 14/01/2013 06:01:36 PM 987 Views
Just like the Sea Folk having dark skin is tokenism. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/01/2013 07:33:15 AM 557 Views

That you jump to the conclusion that I'm offended by gay characters is both laugable and sad... lilltempest - 14/01/2013 06:06:30 PM 1026 Views

You're reaction does come across as knee-jerk. *NM* IndigoAjah - 15/01/2013 09:12:03 PM 459 Views

Culture plays a role in how people see homosexuals, not in there being homosexuals darius_sedai - 15/01/2013 10:50:14 PM 1005 Views
I didn't say anything about that. I said that culture plays a role in determining sexual expression. Ghavrel - 16/01/2013 02:17:45 AM 1014 Views
I think we will have to agree to disagree ... People are born the way they are darius_sedai - 16/01/2013 04:21:33 AM 951 Views
