   It was always about the homosexual subtext.  Think about it!   
      
   Delenn was *supposed* to be a trans-gendered alien.  But Production   
   Realities kiboshed that.   
      
   Ivanova is quite "manly", more so than the effem doctor.   
      
   The one really pretty girl, Talia, who pretended to be gay turned out to be   
   a lying, betraying bisexual (her bisexuality represented by the "sleeper"   
   personality so when she became straight, it was like she was another person.).   
      
   Normal, hetero marriage (as represented by Sheridan & Anna) is portrayed as   
   a vehicle for leverage and emotional blackmail.   
      
   Homosexual marriage is accepted & normal in the B5 Universe!   
      
   G'Kar & Londo: Don't tell me G'Kar didn't secretly want to be explored by   
   Londo's tentacles like a hentai heroine... ;-)   
      
   You tell me!
