ArenaNet’s nod toward equality in GW2.

My character with the loving couple she helped defend.
I want to give some props to ArenaNet today. I think they’ve done something very admirable by having a race (especially one as highly anticipated as the Sylvari) in Guild Wars 2 that practices both heterosexual and homosexual relationships. Thank you, ArenaNet, for presenting the first gay relationship I encountered in Guild Wars 2 as normal, natural, and perfectly accepted without question – just like it should be in our daily life outside of Tyria.
From the Guild Wars 2 Wiki, “Romance and sex is practiced among the sylvari, disregarding gender between those involved. To a sylvari, love is about inspiration, and it has nothing at all to do with the physical form.”
