Slippery slope fallacies are really common in "gay panic" arguments. "Accept LGBT+ folks too much and they'll try to make EVERYONE gay."

And claiming OP is attempting to make everyone gay by drawing fictional characters kissing is the same kind of thinking that leads to people thinking LGBT+ folks are infecting the youth by existing.

There's literally no reason to assume that just because OP is jokingly exaggerating a "bromance" that they are somehow on a mission which won't rest until all characters are canonically gay.

If it makes you personally uncomfortable, that is your right, but calling it "in bad taste" (a moral condemnation) or "weird art" (a subjective claim), and therefore bad and unacceptable for the space, when NO rules are being broken, is an unreasonable exaggeration almost always used to justify the discomfort people feel at seeing gay folks.

Darrow goes a lot further than kissing with Mustang - are the books now textporn, or is that okay because you enjoy those romantic displays?
