Someone pointed this out in a comment that name "gay" could be alluding to the word "Happy" as that was the pervious term for the word back in the 2000's, but I feel skeptical about that since in the in description it states this;
"Gay's outward "cool guy" persona sometimes covers up who he really is inside, leading to him hiding parts of himself from his friends."
This to me sounds like a "hiding the closet" sort of thing and they can't seem to pick one and are choosing to go both way's for the name, which is lazy since they really should really focus on ether one rather then mix the two.
Regardless to me at least this is a shit way of naming your character/antagonist for anything and feels like a sore thump next to the other two (soon three).
I can give you three other names from Goggle that would be better;
exuberant Gecko
elated Gecko
jovial Gecko
Maybe these aren't the best names in the world but you get the point, it just feels so forced and not at all natural like it should be. Because he's whole identity is that he's secretly gay with him being a cool guy to hide it there's unfortunately not a lot you can do with him that makes it interesting compared with everyone else and makes it feel like they wanted to score brownie points with people who are gay without the proper respect nor the care that should be given.
Here's a scenario that I'm going to make and there are two answers to pick one but only one is right. Imagine if you come across a person and they so happen to be bi or trans interacted by the flag they have on their discord or game-jolt and they say hi, what do you say?
A. You say hello, and how are you doing today?
or
B. you say hello trans/bisexual person, how are you today?
Two answers and there is only one right answer.
If you picked B:
Incorrect answer, people who go by those terms should be spoken to like a normal person and should be treated with not only respect but also equally like everyone else as pointing out that they're trans or bi is unnecessary. Also you probably clicked it because your a dickhead and wanted to see a reaction and your right lmao.
If you picked A:
That is the respectful choice, your talking to a person and not a flag there're under.
In case you didn't put 2 to 2 together of what I'm trying to get at, there's a completely different way of approaching something/someone and that's so important especially for human interaction. I just want to say rq that I myself am not gay nor do I wish to unintentionally speak for gay people and come across in a way that makes me look like I know what's best when they don't. If I come across that way in anyway I am sorry for that, this is just my perspective on the character that I could very well be looking to deep into but I just don't think this is good representation at all and there are other ways of making it feel like it's there for the sake of it and have it be so forced down the player's throat.
That's all I have to say, hope you have a good/day and I'll see you later.
