I'm only asking cuz all the examples I can think of off the top of my head at least, regarding recent LGBT+ characters/representation (Steven Universe, She-Ra, Owl House, etc.), all coincidentally involve gay/bi women. I'm having a much harder time thinking of any gay/bi men.

I hope you know what I'm getting at and I'm not coming off as a "WHERE'S WHITE/STRAIGHT PRIDE MONTH?!" guy.

    Raymond Holt, a main character from Brooklyn 99, is gay while mostly being the polar opposite of typical sterotypes. Generally while being cop show it does quite a few things well.

    Also shoutout to Apex Legends for being a game that has a ton of representation with characters who are NB, gay, lesbian, bi and pan, and it being done differently for each one.

    Valkyrie, the newest character, has quite a few voicelines that show she's lesbian while Gibraltar, the gay character, only has it mentioned in his character bio that he has/used to have a boyfriend. You could see this as evidence of your original point but then, he's also not a character who defines himself by his sexuality unlike Valkyrie, so it's a bit more complicated.
