"I don't know, I'm only 20 myself, and I think I have a completely different perspective. I think I prefer having the real issues portrayed than making it non-issue. And it doesn't need to be about coming out, tortured or even male. I mean, if we just trace this back to Buffy, I believe Willow had a wonderful storyline about embracing her relationship, even if it wasn't perfect. I also find Davies' stuff outside of Doctor Who specially good. Cucumber and Banana, for example, are 100% not incidentally gay and don't feature a single coming out storyline. I guess this whole \"it shouldn't be a big deal\" mentality just makes me think about all the straight people who think affirmation of sexual identity is taking things too seriously or something.\nMaybe I'm wrong and Charlie will turn out to be a great character, but i'd still rather have someone like Nathan Maloney from Queer as Folk or Rickie Vasquez from My So-Called Life."
