What people tend to not understand, is that people that are attracted by the same sex by default are rare, very rare. Like 0.5% of the population.
Most of its is fantasm or cultivated taste.
The rgeta amjority of bi and homsoexual today are their ebcause their taste was cultivated in some way.
Let's dwelve in history to proove my point. Homosexuality was never truly accepted as normal, in some of middle asian culture, you wil find that is was a way to an elite to distinguish themselves from the amssises. A bit like acetism or abstinance.
In Japan they wore red socks or Kutsushita.
In Roman society that had no cocnept of heterosexuality mind you (instead they had a concept of active and passive where it was incorrect for the active to be of lower social rank than the passive) for men only sleeping with men, they a name : "Greek male"
This is oriente us twoard the only civilisation in teh orld where it was considered normal : ancient Gerece.
This traddition srtated with teh sacred band of Thebs. It was to promote comradeship between soldiers.
The reason why homosexuality was not just allowed but ACTIVELY cultivated, was via a military incetive.
And you can see that in this culture Homosexuality was more proeminent than other because of early exposure to it via pedrastres tradditions. (Func fact this why the in France we don't call fags fags but Pédé ---> Péderastre at best pedophile at worse. And yess I said fags because Pédé have a pejorative connotation So the english word I used should have one too)
Artist are aware of that they are aware that an heterosexual who red a gay comic just because their is rare fetish he like in this comic, with such exposure can have his tastes changed and subverted.
And they play with that. A lot (do'nt ask me for example, I cna provide them but it really hurt my ego to admit that I read that.)
Well what about today?
In France a famous youtubers who is openly Homosexual, admit that his first love was with a girlfriend. He just renouanced on women. This also allow him to get away with Dirty machist and misogyn jokes time to time.
And there is a lof of homosexuality of compensation nowadays.
Yet despite all of it.. People don't get it.
