I’m already tired of the posts condemning Stan Lee for things he’s said–especially things he said as a geriatric 90+ year old straight white man. Like god fucking damn this is why I can’t stand Tumblr, Twitter, and hyper “walking on eggshells” culture. The moment someone dies it’s “you can’t be said about this CUZ THEY BAD.”  

I don’t even see how his comments were homophobic. Sure they weren’t open-minded, but nothing was hateful about it. He (along with Ditko) created Peter Parker, and Peter was conceived as a straight, white guy. This is what he said:  

“I think the world has a place for gay superheroes, certainly, but, again, I don’t see any reason to change the sexual proclivities of a character once they’ve been established. I have no problem with creating new, homosexual superheroes. It has nothing to do with being anti-gay, or anti-black, or anti-Latino, or anything like that. Latino characters should stay Latino. The Black Panther should certainly not be Swiss. I just see no reason to change that which has already been established when it’s so easy to add new characters. I say create new characters the way you want to. Hell, I’ll do it myself.”

Like… having a preference a character one created remains the same doesn’t make that person bigoted–especially when that character is their creation. I… I don’t get it. He even said he’d support a non-white, non-straight Spider-Man (as in the mantle/superhero identity), he just preferred Peter Parker to remain the way he created him. And, again, Lee is a product of his time. He made most of these comments when he was super old. He grew up in a totally different era (an era for which, at the time, Lee was considered very progressive). 

I’m tired.

Thank you for this. This is a really important thing to remember, now and always. Stan Lee was a good man.

Yes. Thank you.

Agree 100% But Tumblr is the land of my-headcanon-is-reality-so-fight-me. Can’t we just appreciate him for 5 minutes?

Ridiculous stupidity.  As if being a straight white man is somehow inherently bad.  Fucking idiots are everywhere.
