Make Kate Bishop Gay, You Cowards

With Hailee Steinfeld involved, it's inevitable

Hear me out on this one, okay? I could pick any character out of a hat and argue that they should be made gay in the next instalment, but I do actually have a case here beyond ‘I like gays’. I don’t think Hawkeye episode six will confirm anything one way or another - although they won’t know if true love’s first kiss with Yelena will work until they try it - but moving forward, Bishop is going to be a major figure in the MCU, and making her queer would be a huge signal of intent.

Kate Bishop is part of a new wave for the MCU, with Endgame offering something of a reset for the box office behemoth. Before Hawkeye aired, I wrote in reaction to Black Widow that I felt Bishop would be the key to Phase 4 and beyond, especially with Florence Pugh’s Yelena involved. After seeing Kate and Yelena meet in episode five, I’m even more convinced.
