I've said it a few times already Jester Canuck, but I'll say it more explicitly:
I'm not opposed to LGBT people appearing in fiction. Or in games. Or whatever. I have zero problem with that.
I'm just opposed to specific instances that strike me as shoehorning, forcing, etc. Nobody pushed people to make that show... it was a project chosen by people who were passionate about it. The thing I think is stupid is complaining that a piece of fiction is insufficiently inclusive... creating fiction that is inclusive is fine.
Insofar as the PHB is just being inclusive, I don't mind, that's fine. Insofar as I think it's trying to push other people into being inclusive in their works of fiction (campaigns), I think that's manipulative and wrong.
