What if Domino was gay?

Would you love her character any less? more? Who would you like to see her be gay with? hmmm gotta love bein bored, and no gay bashing you'll just humiliate yourself :] 
 
Now this would be  a great cliff-hanger to X-Men: Sex & Violece!     
 
Side Note: I personally dont care about any characters sexuality, If their BA then their BA, If the stink they stink. So yeah, thats all. I was just askin the general audience.

I hate the idea of changing a character's sexual preference. Gay characters show stay gay, straight characters should stay straight, etc.

maybe she is .. i know mystique is .
#7 Posted by The Mango (1477 posts) - 2 years, 10 months ago - Show Bio

So, if you had sex with mystique while she was transformed into a dude, would that be gay or not gay (assuming you're a dude yourself)?
 
What about having sex with Morph or Hulkling while they were shapeshifted into a female? Would that be gay?

@The Mango:
Well im already taken and dont plan on being with anybody else, but for the fun of it: I guess it depends on how open minded someone can be hahaha, Me? Well, id be  a little confused at the time, you gotta give a guy some warning before you do that kind of stuff! I suppose it like being with a tranny hooker, never know what your gonna get "surprise me" :P

I read Sex and Violence, and seeing as how they dry hump ther way outta fights I thought it would be a funny question to ask. I dont need to be obsessed to ask a question dude.

First of all, Mystique is not gay, she's bi-sexual. I could see Domino getting curious about being with women and might try it, I don't think it would be a bad thing at all. It's not changing her sexual preference, just experimenting or expanding it.

Then why didn't you ask "What if Wolverine was gay?"... because he would then love you. He will SNIKT you in places you never dreamed before!

Why did you pick Domino? Why would it at all matter if she was gay?

It wouldn't change anything at all. 
 
This is like asking what if Cyclops shot green lasers instead of red ones.

People actually like Domino enough to care?

@Vance Astro:
It wouldnt matter at all. I was reading X-Force: Sex & Violence and I thought it would be an interesting question to ask.
#29 Posted by alicemalice (74 posts) - 2 years, 9 months ago - Show Bio

She's one of those characters who I could see being bi. Pairings that would interest me would be Domino and Outlaw and with X-23

I don't think her sexuality makes any difference.
#32 Posted by KumoriKunoichi (586 posts) - 2 years, 5 months ago - Show Bio

She could be Bi, hell any character in creation could end up being bisexual. Rictor had Wolfsbane and then he had Shatterstar (but that was a long time coming). What about the possibility of Rahne and Dani having romantic feelings for each other? There was a case for that as well, and a good chunk of evidence. Karma becoming a lesbian was a shock to me but it didn't make me feel any different about her character: she's still strong as hell.   
Then you've got Northstar, who always knew he was gay. So he likes men, but that doesn't make him any less of a hero. Same with Anole. Although Anole is young, he's still got his preferences.  
Of course you have people like Daken, who really doesn't care. He just wants to use people for his own reasons whether they're men or women. 
So, in asking the question of Domino's sexuality, if she was gay, whatever. She's still a hell of a character, but I really don't see why. It would seem forced. 
I guess it's your opinion. :p

She'd just be gay.Nothing happens.

#34 Posted by SC (9990 posts) - 2 years, 4 months ago - Show Bio

I'd be secretly a lot happier. I am ultra protective of Domino that way, even if she doesn't need it. Truthfully though, she strikes me more as bisexual.  
 
From the thread though, and far too many people to quote, but generally, most characters don't actually come out and state their sexual preference in their debut appearance. Do they even have sexualities to be changed, unless otherwise stated or depicted on panel? We can't just assume characters are straight now can we? Otherwise I agree generally. 

#35 Posted by Risky (12144 posts) - 2 years, 4 months ago - Show Bio

I wouldn't care in the least. Domino is not about who she bangs but who she shoots. She certainly has a sex life but that does not affect her as a character at all. Leave that "defined by sex" issue to people like Emma, Northstar and Rictor.

#36 Posted by SC (9990 posts) - 2 years, 4 months ago - Show Bio

Hell yeah, how she shoots too, her style is bamf. Domino is quite vampy but usually to everyone in equal measure. 

#37 Posted by Squares (893 posts) - 2 years, 2 months ago - Show Bio

...she'd be Domino, but gay. I really fail to see how changing her sexual orientation would meaningfully affect how a character should be perceived.

Agree, it's the inevitable trend. Even Superman becomes bi, who can't.

Wolverine would be walking with a limp.
