D&D doesn't care about queer, as it doesn't care about homos and it doesn't care about straights. There is no love parade, no gay marriage and no civil rights for trans.
And you know why? Because it's a fantasy fiction world which doesn't care about real world politics and social concerns.
And I am tired of people bringing that kind of irrelevant stuff into my hobby.
Why is it that it's only ever 'bringing politics into the hobby' when it's queer stuff and never straight stuff?
Somehow people forget that the original series already had multiple queer party members in it. It's true that the player character had pretty few avenues to express that (some male drow slaves in the underdark and a succubus in Watcher's Keep are the only ones that come to mind off the top of my head)
It's not always been terribly visible or well-executed, but queerness isn't something new to the Forgotten Realms, either in video games or in a general sense.
