Hi,
I currently listening to the Dune series on audible, and I got quite annoyed when the homophobic bullshit moved from tolerable in the context of history in the first book (rapist homosexual is a vile trope, but not an immediate no-go for me simply because these people exist), to insufferable in God Emperor of Dune.
I would love to read a good sci-fi or fantasy novel that includes positive LGBTQ-representation. My issue is, when I try to look for books, I only find romance centered novels, which is nothing I really fancy. While bi myself, I like some romance (and even erotic elements) as part of the story, but not as the main focus of it.
So, basically, I am looking for a good book that simply has positive representation, the idea I had this morning is for example either a side character like Captain Jack Harkness from Doctor Who, or plays in a world like where he is from. The MC can be lgbtq or not, I don't really care, I just would like to read a good non-romance focused novel that feels not like every homosexual person is a vile rapists and with weird philosophical explainantion why lgbtq-people are deranged -.-
