That's interesting -- I never thought that. A gay icon was always just someone whose style I admired and who was unabashedly themselves. Something a young closeted person could aspire to and dream about. (That's who a lot of my icons were as a young closeted person.)

I'll accept straight people as icons but only if they work for it through some feat of artistic greatness or exhausting political action and they can also be anime

It would probably help if the gay icon would be someone no one would assume was gay and they had gay friends
