Oh yeah. Relationships are always serious on that site, no matter fictional nor actual.
Bro I saw someone got banned from a WoF subreddit arguing over a side character’s gender, and the only way you knew this side character was gay/bi was in one sentence in book 6 and it’s kind of a one time thing. You don’t see any implications anywhere else about it and you don’t even see that character for the rest of the series.
Bro got banned because he said he didn’t think they were gay in response to a comment like he actually didn’t know, someone called him homophobic for it, he argued that saying he doesn’t really care about the lgbtq+ and he just didn’t know the character was gay and that ways it, mods came in and he was done.
The mods apparently got bad enough that some people split off from the main sub and created their own sub with less rules lmao.
