Gay elves
Trying to bring such a natural feature with huge importance on peoples behavior and fates out of existence is like creating a world without gravity. Or at least a sleeve or two of E.L. Fudge. GAY ELVES! For those who are counting, that’s a year before the founding of Mattachine Society (one of the first gay rights groups). Fugghitaboutit. I am not some childish gay person who demands to have such themes in every piece of art, its just that in warhammer fiction this phenomenon really lowers the potential for depth and credibility.
Elves, those pointy-eared magical woodland creatures so often associated with Christmas, usually come across a little light in the pixie boots. Yes, would be my overall reply, but though your examples from pagan cultures would make sense in the context of elven culture, I do not see their sexual society being as close to those you cite, simply from the few examples we have to look at.
Most fans get furious when I suggest I imagine Elves as pagans with very different view on sexuality. Join an inclusive community for Role-Play, Events, Socializing, and Games. We’re not saying that all elves are queer, we’re. Although it is not yet clear how much LGBTQ+ representation the new gay elves will have, if any, early reviews indicate elf Elrond, played by Robert Aramayo, may be gay. A particular difficulty is that any special emphasis on homosexuality for Warhammer elves, as opposed to any other races, would feed into the juvenile view held by some that they wear dresses, are effeminate and, in a derogatory way, are gay.
Step into a world where acceptance and enchantment flourish. This brings me to my question. Welcome to a realm of Unity, Loyalty, and Respect. Fans get gay elves more angry when I suggest I imagine Malekith and perhaps all Elves as being quite bisexuall. It is especially obvious when it comes to any lore associated with Slaanesh and your description of athartists. Explore our vibrant Gay Elves Kingdom with Rentals and hangouts.

While much has been made of the idea that Sam and Frodo were gay (and there are many, many fanfics on this if you want to read them), there are no explicitly queer characters in the books. Am I wrong if I see GW as being similiar to Blizzard when it comes even to mere homoerotic references?
GAY ELVES! In addition to the elves who wrapped the pro-LGBTQ+ kids' books for Will, a same-sex couple also comes to the (animal) rescue by delivering a puppy and then a rabbit to different families. By Gav on November 12, I received some time ago a comment which stopped me in my tracks. As we reach the seventh decade of Lord of the Rings existing, queer fans are hoping the new series will finally go beyond the subtext and finally give viewers what they deserve.
Its not just that Malekith the Great reminds me so much of Alexander the Great and Gaius Julius Caesar both bisexuallit also seems natural to me that a mortal with such a long lifespan would surely experience some homoerotic affairs. Step into a world where acceptance and enchantment flourish. We know that the Phoenix King is required to sire the next Everqueen, but after this their relationship is purely formal Aenarion notwithstanding.

In case of extremelly hedonistic Druchii and sophisticated Asur this seems even more absurd. Creating the correct sort of context to explore these issues is tricky unless it is to be one of the main themes of a story, and cowardly though it may seem, it is not one I feel suitably skilled to present properly.
Gay rights were pretty much unheard of then – we were all still “homosexuals.” And the rest of the LGBTQ+ rainbow?

First I wish to say, that I loved your books, especially Morathi was potrayed even better than I hoped. Thank you for that.
In other aspects — slavery most prominently — elven society is substantially different. I always think of it in terms of species.

On one hand GW is not afraid to sell completely naked harpies, witches in g-strings and daemonettes with six naked breasts as well as referencing to incestuous relationship between Malekith and Morathi and cross-breeding between different species, but is reluctant to make even slightest reference to existence of homosexuality. The only real background we have regarding elf sexual politics comes via the Everqueen.
The Keebler Elves If “Ernie”—the fey bear elf who leads this motley crew of Martha Stewart wannabees—isn’t a sissy, we’ll eat our hat. Otherwise I really like your work and I just hope I shall know thanks to you what to expect from GW in the years to come regarding this matter.

But I gay elves hope I dont offend you if I say that there were lot of cliches, stereotypes and predictable events. To include one homosexual elf in a story might smack of tokenism, while to explore it it more depth would be difficult within the scope of a Warhammer novel — just as exploring any other facets of sexual society is difficult given the guidelines for content that exist with Black Library.
