In what way would it influence what they do? Iād like some examples please.
They could make D.Va trans. Meaning she was born a boy and later transitioned into a female.

You know I am technically part of the LGBTQ+ and I personally find it annoying as hell that some of you guys push LGBTQ+ on others. We are not special, we are like everyone else, yes it took a long time to be accepted but bottom line we are just people.
Stop acting like we are a superior race please. It is aggravating, let people do what they want and stop pushing and forcing crap on othersā¦ It is people like that who make others annoyed by us. Hell I am even annoyed by my fellow community members when they throw the pride flag up and be like āMAKE THIS HAPPEN!ā.
I also disagree with giving game characters and crap sexuality and all that. It is isnāt needed.

Pushing this kind of crap isnāt how we get more acceptance, it is only going to cause others to retreat and have a problem with us more. I canāt stand the other members who want to push for more LGBTQ+ stuff. Let people do what they want, if they choose to make something with LGBTQ+ then okay, awesome. But donāt beg for it, we donāt need it.
I usually donāt say anything about being part of the LGBTQ+, unless it is something like this really. Someone trying to force stuff on others in the name of LGBTQ+ rights. When really they are just being needy in my opinion and begging for more when we donāt need more. Just let people do what they want.

We do have African/Black origin females both in lore and in game.
If anything we need some Omnics

Also the Original Poster is literally putting a label on all of usā¦ Most people who actually give a damn, wonāt label themselves as LGBTQ+ and on top of that beg for more LGBTQ+ stuff. I can only assume this is one of those Fujoshi girls or something who have an LGBTQ+ romance fetishā¦

Yeah that crap I canāt stand. If they make them that from the start it is fine, but I donāt want them slapping a label on the already existing characters making them turn from undefined to LGBTQ+. I personally prefer characters be undefined with identity and sexuality.

How about we focus on the balance of the game instead of worrying about petty things like this. The game isnt real life itās a GAME, try to have fun.

I feel this. As a gay person I really dont like the labels at all, itās so unnecessary. I dont want to be represented as the letter G let alone anything at all 
Iām just me, not some letter people think is appropriate to categorise me.

Okay. Letās try a thought experiment. Tomorrow, Blizzard comes out and confirms that every single hero in the game is gay.
What changed?
Their attempts at promoting āinclusivityā have been a joke. Iām sorry, but having Tracer utter āI wonder how Emily is doing?ā On occasion in Kongās Row isnāt nearly enough.
But the twitter keyboard warriors get on the feeds and start praising blizzard to the high heavens for the most empty of platitudesā¦ all it is, is free marketing for Blizzard.
We were told 3 or 4 years ago at the birth of Overwatch weād have LGBTQ+ characters in game and nobody cared everybody cared when they came into existence because who knows why this community is trash to blizzard and itself so why not crap on those revealed part of the LGBTQ+ community as well itās pathetic nobody is ever pleased in this community I swear

If you want the truth of why people who push LGBTQ+ bother me so much, despite me being part of it. It is mainly because these types of members of the LGBTQ+ community seem to be on a hostile takeover bid, trying to force the world to be nothing but LGBTQ+. That just isnāt how you are suppose to be and it is also not how the world is suppose to be. Technically even straight and cis people are part of LGBTQ+.
Problem is it seems some LGBTQ+ community members just want to force the world to be nothing but that. The reality is the world is vast and unique as it is suppose to be. Trying to push LGBTQ+ on everyone is just annoying, as long as people donāt screw with us, I donāt think we should be pushing further.
The reality is that the LGBTQ+ community is actually quite toxic to eachother and outsiders. It isnāt right. They make a mess of something they care so much about. people hate LGBTQ+ people simply because many preach nothing but LGBTQ+ instead of just shutting up and living their life while allowing others to also live their life.
The ones that try forcing LGBTQ+ on others, are the ones that earn us hate from the public.

Constantly asking for more LGBT heroes is very annoying and reeks of entitlement.
Itās like those āEcho should be a supportā threads from 1-2 weeks ago.

Iām not saying these threads should pop up all over the place every single day but giving them a chance to live and hear out the thread master is a great way to sport friendly debate 
These threads attract some of the most vile people for asking just a simple question another reveal and thereās nothing wrong with asking for another reveal this thread was flagged the mods un flagged it that should say something 
Tracer is a Lesbian and Jack is Gay thereās nothing wrong with this but when they were revealed this community went up in arms and are always about to go to war with the company for it itās sad and pathetic and it shouldnāt happen but it does
And the LGBTQ+ community fights among themselves I havenāt seen this before but I also stay out of drama so I doubt Iāll ever see it
