Heterosexual Bias

This article shows a very strong heterosexual bias. What about Taylor and Bree, Sarah and Bree, Jonas and Daniel, etc. There no's evidence that Bree and Taylor aren't lesbians, (or Jules for that matter). And I think it's more likely than not, that Sarah is bisexual. Personally I'd like to see some lesbian relationships, in this series. As a young lesbian, who hates all the bullshit butch, goth, and emo stereotypes; I'd like to see some young, pretty, and emotionally balanced role models in the media. -misty 12:21, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

This page, like all the wiki, should reflect what the series is not what we'd like it to be. While Daniel and Jonas could certainly be added, there's simply not been much homosexual tension between characters otherwise. I definitely agree with your point that there should be more non-stereotyped homosexual characters in the media. But as with all other issues, the LGPedia is simply not the place to advocate for changes in the series. But by all means, add any relationships where you can honestly document hints of sexual tension. --JayHenry 13:17, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
Yeah, there have clearly been tounge-in-cheek references to a Daniel and Jonas relationship. Jackson Davis joked about it a bit when he was on Mixed Media. But that's about it. You can't start making crap up like "tachyon and bree's dad" and "homeless watcher and random girl" without this all falling apart. Misty, you should watch brotherhood2.com's vlog from yesterday, john green talks about censorship of a young adult book for apparent references to a lesbian relationship. lamo censors. --Milowent 17:06, 3 May 2007 (CDT) ps. great page idea.
guys, i think we should add non-sexual relationships. i mean jonas' and daniel's relationship is a big part of the series, but all it says here is "they might be gay." there's more to relationships than whather or not they're sleeping with each other! and i realize the page was meant to track sexual relationships, but i think it could be much more interesting if it tracked the ups and downs of relationships in general.--Skeeta 00:26, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

Great work

I love this page already. This is something that people always talk about, and I'm glad we have a page on it now.--Jonpro 16:18, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

Yay, I'm so glad! There's so much content to go through, so it's not nearly done. But I'm glad that it will be helpful/useful!! --Zoey 16:27, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
Just to update, I have finished this page up to the current blog. The only relationship I am missing is Gemma and Brother's. If someone can fill that in for me, the article will be done! Yay! --Zoey 17:35, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
Added Gemma and Brother. Actually, there's a little bit of sexual tension between Tachyon and Brother, it's mentioned somewhere in the Tachyon email archive. If someone feels like combing through, you might find it!. OwenIsCool 19:10, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

Main Page?

I don't know if it's even "kosher" for me to suggest this, since I did most of the work on the page, but would anyone object to me adding a link here from the main page? Personally, I think it's relevant because it tracks a huge aspect of the storyline and would be something that new members could find useful. But maybe I'm biased? So I def. want to get opinions on this before I go ahead and do it though.. !--Zoey 21:02, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

We might be able to add this to the main page, or if not, perhaps make it a featured article at some point. We should make sure this page links to other relevant articles and videos throughout, and I'd also like to add pictures of the different "couples" (for lack of a better word). Just all in the name of keeping things tidy and also presentable. OwenIsCool 21:22, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
Well, I added links to every video I referenced in the progression of the relationships. I can work on getting pictures for the couples. Although there will definately be some we just won't be able to get pictures of.. like Gemma's relationships.. we never actually see them. If it's not a problem to only have pictures of certain couples, I can def. start going through and finding some :) --Zoey 21:28, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
