I need to read that book.
Meant to several years ago but somehow never got around to it. :|

In my comic, I'm going to make a homosexual serial killer the main character. I hope that doesn't offend any gay males who do not personally subscribe to the act of shanking.
Cartilage Head:
Imagine if you will that Tai was a heterosexual male rather than a homosexual woman. Their sexual interest is obviously the same (exclusively women). Now, imagine that heterosexual male Tai was forcefully trying to remove Faye's shirt after removing his own.

Good idea ... now imagine it was Steve who reacted to Dora removing her sweaty shirt by removing his own, and then playfully pretended to help Faye do the same.
What is the "media stereotype" of lesbians? I dunno, seems so multifaceted that I can't identify a single stereotype. Let's see, the most prominent lesbians in my media bubble are Melissa Etheridge, Rachel Maddow, Ellen DeGeneres and Stephanie Miller, so I guess the stereotype is talented, funny, good-looking, progressive and the smartest person in the room. OK, there are negative stereotypes out there too, but people are too various and the stereotypes are too numerous to expect every character to somehow avoid every possible stereotype.
Let Tai be Tai.
This is going to be interesting.

You mean like Sven (prior to having sex with Faye) and the way he acted with the ladies was very slutty one night stands? Sven's behaviour clearly enforced the negative stereotype that some women have that all men are ultimately only interested in sex and not at all interested in long term relationships etc. Since these sort of 'players' do exist in real life, I must protest at Sven's previous actions which implies that all hetrosexual men are in some way sex crazed and are portraying us more sexually controlled males in a bad, negative light....
