Oh, so all Asians are gay in this universe?

Plenty of homophobic idiots on this thread to be sure.
Why can't people just live and let live?
Nobody is hurting anybody else at the end of the day in being gay or having a gay relationship.
Must be a pretty pathetic, barren and inadequate existence these losers have that they really think movies should or were boycotted because they dare to even elude to the existence of homosexuals in the future. Or they feel the need to put quote marks around groups that are a real part of society like the LGBT community like "reelreviews" has.
Sorry honey pie for existing like that. Must be a real downer for you! -

I see we've got a real dense one here.
In order for me buy into the idea that showing only an Asian gay couple in this film was "racist" as you put it, I would surely have to buy into the idea there was something negative about being gay in the first place, wouldn't I?
As I thought anybody who read my post would of been able to glean in the first 2 seconds though, this is not the case. Therefore cries of racism are plainly ridiculous.
You really should be in the primate section of a zoo. You'd feel right at home with all the other knuckle draggers and I could come and throw bananas at you. -

Nope. Spock would note that your "logic" is pretty poor. For example, nobody would think there is something negative about being a math teacher. However, if you were to have a film that depicted EVERY asian character as a math teacher, the film would be criticized for negatively stereotyping asians as math teachers. -

For the record I googled the word stereotype. All it says is it means to over simply, pigeon hole or use cliched ideas to represent a person or thing. Nothing about whether it is good or bad. I could say for example "all children are completely innocent." It would be a stereotype, but I doubt most people would think that that is a bad thing to think about children, even if it is an over rused or stereotypical idea.
The key words here are negative and positive, and prefacing either before the word that follows it.
Now we've established your lack of basic reading comprehension or understanding of the English language, is there anything else you'd like to say?.
