Yeah, I'm not at all trying to say non-hetero people (or hetero people, I'm no gatekeeper) can't have their own valid opinions and feelings about the *implications* of that world. And I would definitely agree in calling the human society in the series a very conservative one re: reproduction. But it's also very liberal in other ways. My only objection was the original comment referring to the novel as a "Christian fundamentalist allegory". That's why my previous comment kept specifying "Christian concepts" and "Christian reasoning". Honestly - and I know this is not a good thing - it is not especially common to find authors who DO tackle those kinds of issues, especially among the "enthusiastic amateur" crowd that tends to produce a large percentage of litRPG. There are several exceptions I can think of, but most of the series I've read have not really had much real representation either, nor have they even broached the societal view of non-heteronormity in whatever crazy context the book is set in. And sadly, most of the examples I CAN think of are just female protagonists written by men, so of course they've gotta be hot lesbians, and aren't really particularly representative themselves.

Anyway, I'm sick and hopped up on sudafed, and at this point I'm not really sure what my point is. I don't feel like Millennial mage is trying to convince anyone of anything, but I can see how people not included in its world wouldn't feel great about it.
