    Because by having a title for straight people it takes a step towards no longer making that the default. Similarly, if they’ve got Ace it would be nice to also have Allo. Maybe they do and it wasn’t mentioned in the article 🤷

      Are you saying that the word “straight” implies default instead of a direction kinda like how feminism really implies “for women” instead of egalitarian?

        I’m saying by not having the label in the game, the creators are assuming it is the default which should not be the case.

        So they should include it and not be glib.

          So no matter whether it’s assumed or called “straight”, it’s bad to consider it a default?

          Broski, it’s pretty much default.

        That’s the point, isn’t it? Nothing is wrong with any of it so why not treat everyone with equality?
