sometimes i remember that george lucas is the biggest fucking homophobe and that advocating for gay luke is really important because lucas has said over and over that gay people “don’t exist” in the sw comics and apparently threatened to sue gay fans who were publishing their writing in zines, and hyper-masculinized luke in the comics because he thought it would make mlm relate to him less and created a character and romantic arc out of pure hatred for men who love men and that mlm have seen themselves in luke for decades and deserve that representation full fucking stop.
Mark Hamill is the opposite of this, a gay teen asked if Luke is gay and he responded by saying, “of course he’s gay.” He literally did this to say if you as a gay man relate to Luke and feel a connection to him and think he’s gay, then Luke is gay.
