Thank you for creating this thread here. I completely agree. The interactions with romanced Gale at the brothel feel like a continuation of the game making digs at Gale’s expense.

Genuinely if Gale was a female character this would widely be considered off-putting and icky, but because he’s a guy it’s just “haha that’s funny!” It’s kind of like the whole relationship disparity between Mystra and Gale isn’t regarded the same way it would if the gender roles were reversed.
