i think rp has an on going problem with fetishization of gay men, under-representation of wlw of all stripes, mixed politics with bisexuals, and trans/nb characters are p much non existent.
i think writing sexualities that aren't your own can be exploratory and illuminating if they're done respectfully aided with a lot of research. i really think saying that it's all appropriation isn't fair. writing these other experiences helped me come to understand myself, and others.
