From the Actor Who Played Superman - Dean Cain: Making Superman Bisexual Isn't 'Bold or Brave'
PJ Media ^ | 10/13/2021 | Matt Margolis

Dean Cain, the actor who portrayed Superman in the 1990s TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman alongside Teri Hatcher, dismissed the new iteration of Superman. He argued that DC Comics making Superman bisexual isn’t “bold or brave” like it’s being promoted as, but instead is just a case of “bandwagoning.”

“They said it’s a bold new direction, I say they’re bandwagoning,” Cain said. “You know, Robin just came out as bi […] honestly, who’s really shocked about that one? The new Captain America is gay. My daughter in [the TV series] ‘Supergirl,’ where I played the father, was gay. So I don’t think it’s bold or brave or some crazy new direction. If they had done this 20 years ago, perhaps that would be bold or brave.”

“Brave would be having him fight for the rights of gay people in Iran where they’ll throw you off a building for the offense of being gay,” Cain insisted. “They’re talking about having him fighting real-world problems like climate change. the deportation of refugees and he’ll dating a hacktivist — whatever a hacktivist is, I don’t know. Why don’t they have him fight the injustices that created the refugees whose deportation he’s protesting? That would be brave, I’d read that. Or fighting for the rights of women to attend school and have the ability to work and live and boys not to be raped by men under the new warm and fuzzy Taliban — that would be brave.”

Cain added that “there’s real evil in this world today, real corruption and government overreach” for superheroes to fight against. “It’d be great to tackle those issues. I’d like to see the character doing that.”

That big red “S” now stands for sodomite. The left wrecks everything.

What would’ve been “brave” is to keep Superman straight. They’re cowards. Conservatives simply won’t buy your BS and maybe write something like Cain did.

The libs would burn down your office, terrorize your wife , dox your kids, destroy your car. That’s why Superman is gay.

Faster than a Chick-Fil-A drive thru.

More powerful than a diversity & inclusion mandate.

Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane!

It's SUPERFAG!

The Sugar Hill Gang predicted this in 1979. From Rapper's Delight
"I said by the way baby what's your name,
she said I go by the name of Lois Lane and you can be my boyfriend you surely can when I cut my boyfriend Superman,
I said he's a fairy don't you suppose,flying through the air in panty hose..."

I quit watching Supergirl because of its woke virtue signaling . The writers stopped writing a TV show and instead an agenda.

Totally correct. They alienated a sector of their readers.

I’m so tired of the left changing characters into homosexuals and/or blacks. They are making everything unwatchable.

Homosexuals are full of deceit and lies. They are sneakily trying to shove their agenda down our throats, What they are trying here is to propagandize our young to be blindly accepting of their perversion without questioning it. There iw no other excuse for producing a queer superman. There is no need, no reason, and no explanation other than that. They are awfully twisted people. They are people doing something wrong and trying to change the perception of it to something right.

I see it now:

Wonder Woman a full blown lesbian, with female partner.

Prepare for EVERY old superhero to be made homo/bi/trans, and worse.
