	I want to give my two cents here. I'm neither opposed or in favor of the category. I agree with most of Nesty's points and Alientraveller's. Placing these characters in a category does imply these characters to be "different", but I personally don't feel like it's more a 'label' than plenty of other categories. I also wouldn't equate listing a character's sexuality (most of these characters already have it mentioned in their respective articles, so not wanting to compile them into a category seems a bit of a double standard) to a discussion of politics and religion since in most cases it's just factual and not open to discussion. I would also make a case for Wikipedia doing the same thing in its category system, and giving readers easier access to this kind of information shows the writers' progressiveness in this field. However, it doesn't do much in the way of pointing out these characters are "different" which shouldn't be the case. If we're to keep this category though, it should definitely be changed to something more acceptable like "LGBT individuals". -- {{User:Master Sima Yi/sig}} 19:59, February 11, 2016 (UTC)		I want to give my two cents here.

	: I'm going to chime in here to say that LGBT individuals is a group of people no different than nationality and we do categorize people by nationality. Religion itself hasn't been a major theme in the games or the canon (despite the assassination of a Pope), but nationality has. With Leonardo's DLC for ACB, characters like Ned Wynert, and the cross-dressing swordsman in Unity, it has been a small theme that these characters do exists and it does actually impact their categorization. I don't feel that this is isolating or discriminating against these characters -- it is simply categorizing them by statements they themselves have made, especially in Leonardo's case.

			The name isn't a problem, it's far longer. LGBTQIAPK+ Or LGBTTTQQIAA+
			+ = all the bellow
			+ Pansexual
			+ Agender
			+ Gender Queer

	:Thirdly, labels. It's really easy to just label individuals as being gay, or bi-sexual, or lesbian, or what have you. But labels are really nice, simple, nifty things, which is why people like them so much. Problem is, sexuality is not a simple thing, and labels can be a pretty confining, damning, confronting, troubling presence for all kinds of people. Lots of people don't like being categorized and put in a neat little box that tells them what they are. And that is something that we should respect. Now, I get that we are talking about <i>fictional</i> characters here, and they don't really have feelings. Despite that, my point still stands.		:Thirdly, labels.

	:Fourthly, relevancy. Is it really relevant that someone feels attracted to someone of their own gender? Does it define them as a person? I think not. We also don't categorize people by the colour of their skin, their gender, their personal-style choices (e.g. gothic). I think this is one of those categories that we can easily do without, because sexuality does not define who we are, in the way that, for example, a profession or allegiance does.		:Fourthly, relevancy.
