I am currently writing ideas and plot lines for a non-profit local web cartoon with some friends of mine. I have already fully written a couple of characters for said cartoon, some of these characters i have written are deemed homosexuals, i have written these traits for said characters for a long time now. However after taking a look at modern cartoons such as the Legend of Korra, Steven Universe, SVTFOE, and just recently the Loud House, it seems that all of these modern kids cartoons have already tackled on the subject of "subtle homosexuality".
While this cartoon i am contributing to is by no means a children's show, it worries me that we may receive negative feedback for taking on what is now an overredundant trope in cartoons nowadays, and i do not wish for the cartoon series to be a flop for just a simple character trait.
I was wondering how may i succeed in executing such an overdone trope without receiving any form of backlash for indulging in LGBT awareness? I apologize if this question of mine sounds dumb.
