I'm in extreme writers block. It will help me get my creativity mov I asked my mother if she had any ideas This is what she came up with, along with some other things

The theory that Batman and Robin are gay first appeared when a comic book hating psychologist attempted to convince the government that they were having a negative impact on youngsters. He believed there was a risk that the Caped Crusader's adventures might cause children to become homosexuals, which was still seen as "wrong" in the s. None of that is true of course, and Bruce Wayne's relationship with Dick Grayson - and the other kids who have been Robin over the years - has always been strictly platonic. Unfortunately for the Dynamic Duo, there have been a lot of comics over the years that have contained some very weird and unexpectedly sexual moments between the two. Even before the Batman TV series starring Adam West and Burt Ward, Batman's adventures on the page began taking a campy approach to storytelling that now reads very differently.

Opinions expressed are solely those of the author s. Who would think such a thing? But, of course, no one has an agenda to promote, and no producers or screenwriters in Hollywood are trying to indoctrinate anyone. Perish the thought. No agenda at all!
