Firstly, I feel like everyone is tired of the AA kiss discourse at this point.

Secondly, Larian has some amazing queer rep, and twisting into knots to argue that the AA kiss is somehow homophobic is truly impressive and a brand new angle.

Thirdly, all origin characters are pansexual, Astarion isn't somehow queerer just because he's theatrical. Some of the arguments in OP's post are just harmful stereotypes.
