[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8292561, member: 7030563"] First off, no I can not recall ever marrying NPCs or PCs in a game, but even if I did that is hardly relevant. There absolutely have been a man and woman running a tavern and there have been multiple women and multiple men running the taverns too. Whether or not these couples were shagging when the lights went out has never come up in my games and whether or not they were trans or cis or non-binary has never come up either and saying it hasn't come up is not the same as saying they were hetero/cis. Further, just because a man marries a woman does not mean they are heterosexual, nor does it mean that they are cisgender. In the real world, there are many homosexual people in married to someone of the opposite sex and as a matter of fact I bet there are more homosexuals and bisexuals married to someone of the opposite sex than there are homosexuals and bisexuals married to same-sex partners. There are many transgenders that are married as well. They are already there and represented and if you had a story with a marriage in it there is not reason to think they weren't. The fact that a marriage happened does not imply that LGBTQIA+ are not represented. I don't think I am an outlier. Now if you play a porno version of D&D with explicit graphic sex or description of genitals, then yes you may not have a truly inclusive game if your descriptions and situation are not broad and inclusive, but I think people that play those kind of games are the ones that are outliers.
