I don't watch YouTube video breakdowns of any program I watch. I mostly calm down and slowly break down and digest my entertainment so some things don't come as a surprise for me.
I've always viewed him in that spectrum and remember a couple scenes suggesting his sexuality, tho I wasn't sure what season. Seeing him being outed like that this season, I was like, checks out!!

It's the blatant lying that Frenchie was changed all of sudden. If not, I wouldn't even involve myself.
I search them links to drop as proof cos some disingenuous people will try to spin it with an agenda.

And I stand my ground... If one is a homophobe and is watching THE BOYS or GEN V they're an idiot or just sadistic. G@y shรฏt and weird sรฉxual feti$h is clearly front and centre in this show. Watching it till S4, you'd have call it quits by now since you hold such strong views. There's plenty alternatives. So no excuses.

Being in the TV and movies section of NL for a long time, I've seen how peeps here will slap WOKE on anything they remotely don't like like g@y scenes, dominant females, LGtv characters etc. It's easier to just shout WOKE and get a mob of supporters on here. Just for either of these things.

So I'm not sorry for not being civil with them likes. Cos same dumbos here were shouting same WOKE a year or two ago when SANDMAN show released even tho these characters had the comic background and storyline to back up what was Adapted.
First off, you're definitely right here! The Boys is the most hedonistic and disgusting show on tv and if anyone's offended by Frenchie being gay but not offended by the Deep's beastiality should be checked in the head. I've always said it here - I'm not homophobic - it's difficult to be one here. I'm just shocked about how the writers of the show wrote him in this season๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ not everyone is apt enough to figure it out for 3 seasons. I knew Frenchie was not normal but I never had the inclination he was bi like most people on the internet but I didn't think much of it but the writing of his subplot is not good enough that's my whole point - it didn't make any sense that his bi-ness should be a major plot point when it wasn't even a minor one in other seasons๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ you have to understand that

The Boys has had LGBT+ characters from the first season. So who exactly are they appealing to again with Frenchie being with a guy?

Haven't seen the last season of Ted Lasso yet, but is it the girl that used to date Roy that is now a lesbian?
Yeah, that girl.
Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by TheStrongest: 2:48pm On Jun 18
People's complaints about Frenchie are valid..
All these closet gays on Nairaland being all defensive for no just reason.

Nobody is attacking his sexuality directly, we're only not happy about the sudden introduction.

If he was gay from the first season, nobody would be complaining now...

We're not attacking y'all sexuality, so make una drink water and chill..

To those guys with special queer detecting ability, I greet you special ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„..

The green deserve anything rhaenyra will b doing to dem can u imagine all of dem ,aegon ,alicent and otto doesn't even care about aemmond killing luke like dey are ok with it knowing d consequences dat will befall dem..

I can't wait for episode 2 dragon vs dragon

Vhagar is strong oooh to d extent Daemon was asking rhanys to team up with him to kill vhagar.

I think vermithor can take on vhagar, but no rider..

No warrior worth his salt will downplay how disadvantaged they'd be going up against Vhagar. She's the biggest dragon in Westeros and has the most battle experience. Heck, Vhagar was there during Aegon I's Conquest of the Seven Kingdoms. So no be Child's play. But Daemon and Caraxes are very competent fighters as well.

Vermithor will eventually get a rider. Many of them will have sorrowful deaths. Just dey prepare.

Maybe some people couldn't perceive Frenchie was Bi somehow. It can happen.
I feel what got people really enranged the more I think about it is the very presence of Kimiko. Straight ppl are of the belief that Frenchie is straight cos of his relationship with Kimiko. And now somehow bringing a g@y love interest outta nowhere triggered ppl. Thing is ppl don't like a straight person turning g@y in a given story. grin grin

That's the reason the supe who multiplied himself just to eat his own @ss and w@nk off is being paid way lesser attention. It's just like 2 peeps that have mentioned the guy, the rest have been solely focused on Frenchie. All other annoying bizarre shรฏt done in the show is being overlooked.

Anyway, I kinda feel it was a little silly the way it was written with Frenchie falling for the person he's responsible for killing his family. It was poorly executed. Trying to make Frenchie face his past with that angle was poorly handled and felt forced.
Still doesn't excuse the amusing whinings on social media.

Guy that doesn't make him bi. Or you're just part of a few that noticed because it's all over Reddit with people calling it a flaw ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ. If that was the direction Kripke was going for, it should have been less subtle so it won't come out as a shock since he's a main character it's just like James Gunn makes Superman trans all of a sudden. It's not in the comics that Frenchi is bi.
The problem is not with him being bi, it's with the story, it just comes of as lazy storytelling - a guy loves another guy but having killed his parents- over-used kind of trope even used in the Boys. It's like they added it after the reviewing the script already
First and foremost, you expected a guy named Frenchie to be straight? Lol, like BFR

Also, your criticism is valid if you were actually right but you aren't as there have been bits and pieces that Abduleez1 have pointed out that led to that moment in his characterization, you not picking up on them isn't the writer's fault as they left multiple hints

Furthermore, using the comics as a metric to judge the show can't stand because damn, the comics was bad (at least to me). Did you know that soldier boy was literally homelander's sex slave in the comics? Yep, they aren't father and son but rather doing the devil's tango, if they added that layer to the show, it will be straight up incest and y'all will still complain

The Boys was already going downhill to me since S3. Even tho the action was pretty good and anticipated, that season was somewhat weak compared to the first 2 seasons.

We all know the reason the audience score is rotten. So let's not pretend the story is that bad.
