Hello, fellow promoters. I am just wondering if any of you promoters have dealt with this subject in your own feds or - do you think it should be addressed in the greater storylines of the GWF past and present? I mean, we have had everything under the sun addressed such as racial inequality, parent-child-sibling relationships, romance, corrupt politics, death, illegal substances, religion/spirituality. I wonder why this has not been addressed. This post is not to offend anyone as I support all communities. I am just curious.
What GWF stars do you think have fallen under the rainbow community? Thanks!

It would be interesting to see what would happen if someone came out. The closest thing I can remember is a character named Taechon? and maybe Nitro, seems he was a gay competitor on Stan Lee's want to be a superhero, but sexuality has never been addressed. It is an intriguing thought. How would his friends feel, how would it effect his career and how the fans viewed him.

Are there characters who would fit somewhere in the spectrum? Undoubtedly but the game should never really need to delve into sexual preferences or gender identity too deeply so I wouldn't venture much other than Tachyon's choice of partner would be interesting unless from T's race.

Maybe not GWF ? But in my Legends did make a suggest of list of gay wrestlers and create a faction ? . Also with my Legends fed WCW Western Championship Wrestling based on the Wild West days . Was thinking about creating a black slave rebel faction ? But wasn't sure if it would be PC/cool to do it

It's an interesting question. I suppose Killer Queen could probably fall under some sort of genderqueer/pansexual banner today but his sexuality was never really addressed.
I don't know if he really need a whole storyline surrounding it but I definitely don't think it would be a bad thing for the GWF to have an outed gay character, even in just a footnote "oh-by-the-way" sense.

It’s been a long, long time since I read the manuals, so please forgive me, but wasn’t this obliquely referenced in the CPC with those two shape shifting characters? I think the “female” one was named Nano, maybe?
Not sure—I don’t remember really well.

Nano and Macro.....genderless being who basically battled on one side or the other based on their size. Loved those two. Putting them in FTR or the like would be awesome.

Vanity, Killer Queen, Amazonia to a point, Taechon (was literally both, or neither, male and female), Godsend (also with both a male and female iteration) Alpha Female all would fit on the spectrum somewhere. Ultimately, unless it's part of the story (Adam Blast and Vanity fighting over Sweet Thing, for example) who cares what kind of person (or alien) they go to bed with? Male or female, who's taking Mutant or Creeper to bed? I personally don't care and would rather focus on the wrestling, not the soap operas.

Well I'd kinda like to know who would find Mutant and Creeper attractive, lol
