considering the majority of mcu is male characters this isn't a surprise

no, but it would be nice if people playing an mcu guy would be more open to either the mcu girls or willing to play crosscanon ships (in games) if that's the case instead of getting in and deciding that they're going to have a house and all the boys will live together and share beds and undies and hee hee shower time while nat is either 'den mom' or has to go fend for herself. if there's ever a darcy/jane in game, they treat them like pets.

i get it's a mostly male cast, but that shouldn't really matter. mostly male cast doesn't mean mostly male cast of all gay guys. not unless it's queer as folk.

there is mcu het tho, i've played it, i've seen it, any popular natasha ship is going to be het by default

of course, but nine times out of ten when you see a nat app in somewhere with a heavy mcu male cast or a game open and there's a flood of mcu boys and just nat, there's griping about cockhops and it's just predetermined that nat's going to want to jump all the mcu cock.

i'd rather see her just give them all the finger and go shack up with someone better.

bc again most popular nat ships are het ships with an mcu dude bc that's where most of her interaction comes from in canon

you're not obligated to hook her up with clint or steve or whoever

yeah, but the start of this thread was that nat's a cockhop swimming in a sea of dick. there are other reasons to want to play her besides trying to pogo-hop from one mcu to another. yes, she's generally played as het, but i'm having a hard time seeing why this is a problem. not everyone has to be played as pansexual.
