This used to be a show to watch with your kids.

I'm not talking about homosexuality, I'm talking about left wing agendas, changing character origins, adding emo romances. But I'll entertain your response anyway, can't really speak for the non dc shows as they all have proven to be garbage, byt if you want another strong example arrowvese, White Canary

I'm sorry, but how are lesbians not appropriate for kids?! If anything, Mon-El banging Ms. Tessmacher is more grown up material, and we're talking about a show where people die left and right in gruesome ways, but two girls kissing is too much?
Don't you think that perhaps kids who are gay (or might be so inclined) might benefit from watching a show dealing with accepting one's own sexuality? News flash, people can discover their sexuality pretty early on, and those who are ostracised for being gay have a VERY rough time, to the point of living in denial and suffering for years, if not for life. But no, let's prohibit Supergirl because how DARE they show a real issue?
I mean, look, any parent has the right to raise their children the way they believe best, but when one takes measures that imply homosexuality is WRONG and should not be watched, that is not a nice message, be it for their own sakes or those they know who might be.
And no, i don't mean to be preachy, but i have lots of gay friends who had a really difficult youth due to bullying or having close-minded parents who would torment them for being who they are, and that pretty much starts when we reject a mere tv show for it. -

I don't care about what kids watch, I was explaining it's the garbage CW Executives get off on. Take it up with the original poster not me, I don't care if kids watch Ash vs the Evil Dead or like material

Don't want to be preachy either but there is this book that many religions are based on
and it says that being gay is wrong.
I didn't write the book so don't shoot the messenger
Alot of the stories in this book also states that murder and violence
is usually less worst than sex in many ways..
I could go into details but either you already know
or you don't want to know.
But even if that book didn't exist,there are millions of people
with different ideas so there's no way that everybody will agree
that having gay characters in a series like this is a good idea. -

If you're referencing the Bible- it also states many many nonsensical "rules" that are broken on the daily now-a-days. Can't pick and choose what people will follow and what people won't follow!
Check out Leviticus- it's chock full of rules. Since I don't know your gender, I will just throw out a generic, blanket statement that I bet it's safe to assumed that either you (if a man) or someone you're dating or are married too (if you're a woman) or even a son or father have broken the rules about not cutting the side of the hair, or clip off the edges of the beard- both are not allowed. Do you wear clothing woven of two kinds of material- BAD! Do you or anyone you know or love have tattoos, because that's also a NO NO. disgrace and you preach to them about it, right? And lying- I bet you and the people you love never lie because that book says it's wrong. Eat crabs or other shellfish- EH, BAD. Do you shop or go to restaurants on Sundays because those people working are breaking the RULES. exactly stated in the same passing context as man shall not lie with another man as he does with a woman. I see no one preaching about THAT except for Chik Fil A. The Bible isn't FULL of anti-gay statements. It has just a few, same as all the rest of the nonsense I mentioned above. Don't touch a pig's skin, sorry football players- you're breaking the rules. So preach on. pick and choose your rules. Gay= bad. But everything else that the Bibles states is "wrong" is just fine and a-ok.

And there is also a book called history that is based on facts and true events that has recollections of how many homosexual men and women these so-called righteous people raped, murdered, bullied, jailed and casted out all in the name of God for being homosexual so it doesnt surprise me that they would see sex as being worse than violence since they arent really good people like they claimed to be that was just the lie they hide behind when they were raping women to cleanse the devil out of them for having feelings for people of the same sex and if anything they were just the same as ISIS. The only difference was one hid behind a bible while the other is depicted as villains when it was both trying to control the world.
The fact there are so many churches are acknowledging this as wrong now and supporting same sex marriages shows outdated views like that have no place in modern society.

It also explicitly states the practice of Christmas trees is bad, but no one ever pays attention to that verse (Though the Charlie brown Christmas special did at least stop the tacky metal ones).
No point trying to show mercy to the stupid, they wouldn't know what to do with it anyway -

Ah, ignorance.
Actually, no, the Bible
doesn't
say that being gay is wrong. Beyond that it came out of a culture that had no understanding of orientation, but of acts and gender roles, you're relying on translations that follow the Medieval Inquisition demonization of gay sex. In all the annals of recorded history, including the quite-far-ranging recorded rabbinical law, no such sentence as that put forward in the modern reading took place prior to the Medieval Inquisition.
You're addressing passages about male temple prostitution without understanding.
No decent fiction caters to ignorance of that sort. How could it?
All roads lead to truth if you're willing to travel honestly. -

The OP isn't complaining about your imagined agendas. S/he is talking about LGBT stereotypes such as the tough lesbian tomboy. About a lack of diversity, in other words. You, on the other hand, feel threatened by any diversity at all and would like to erase LGBT people from the media landscape. That is the only agenda at play here, so please do us all a favor and stop projecting.

The Mon-El bit I could play off as grown ups playing, but it's not something you'd expect on a show like this. I'm more worried about the show suggesting every tomboy woman is automatically gay. With Arrow being too dark for kids (and Laurel being dead anyway), I was really rooting for Supergirl to be something I could enjoy with my little girls. Flash is great, but sadly Jesse Quick is only a recurring character.
