Happy couples are boring to watch, and LGBT in media at all is deemed scary and contentious.
What exactly is the takeaway with that reasoning. That it's acceptable to extrapolate as long as it's a popular depiction in media? For anyone that isn't a well-muscled, unusually pretty, straight, white, 30yr old high school student about whom a prophecy has been written, I don't think that's going to go well.
I was referring to the media portion because of how consistent it is and there are much better ways of making a relationship interesting, it's lazy at best. The point was how much it bleeds into real life. It's not hard to surround myself with friends who don't think/talk that way but in my previous job it was almost all married men I worked with and almost all of them were constantly complaining about their wives.
