“I was just really honoured to be asked. We all wanted to retain the integrity of the character – I wanted to make sure we didn’t lose the bits that people loved, while doing something new.” He told the Guardian newspaper: “I also hope Loki coming out as bisexual was meaningful to people who spotted it. It was a small step, and there’s further to go. But it was definitely important to all of us.”
– Actor Tom Hiddleston, on the importance of his character Loki coming out as bisexual, which is addressed in the third episode of the series when, Sylvie, a female character, asks Loki: “How about you? You’re a prince. Must’ve been would-be princesses or perhaps another prince?” And Loki replies: “A bit of both. I suspect the same as you.”
Yes, a very very very small step.
So don’t pat yourself on the back too hard, ok?
There are people that are living (and sometimes dying) this lifestyle everyday, they are the heroic ones.
