Spider-Man Is Many Things, But He Ain’t Gay!

It's fitting that this story should come out in the same week that we not only finally got marriage equality for all, but also a new Spider-Man. One of the more interesting things to come out of the Sony hack late last year is a document from Sony executives detailing the key qualities that make up Spider-Man, and a big one apparently is heterosexuality.

According to Queerty (link below), Sony execs have a list of "Mandatory Character Traits" which reads more like a list of shit he's not allowed to do rather than a list of, you know, character traits.

The most interesting thing in the world is that last parenthesized sentence: unless Marvel has portrayed that alter ego as a homosexual. Their refusal to consider Miles Morales or any of the other potential versions of this character—many of whom are non-white—more or less makes that a moot point. So long as Sony's involved, Spider-Man will never not be Peter Parker, and he'll never, ever accept a cock in him.

Also, Sony, you kinda already made a gay Spider-Man movie...
