It reminds me of one of my favorite presentations of how homosexuality is dealt with in a science fiction world. I don't want to give the source, as then it'd be a minor spoiler. The set-up is that two people are undercover on a dangerous mission to investigate something. They have cover identities. The set-up is the classic amusing one where even though they aren't actually involved at all, they are posing as newlyweds. This is a fairly classic comic set-up, but they are both male. It plays out pretty much the way you'd expect if they were a male-female couple. Humor ensues from the set-up with the funnier one making comments about oh I forget, I think things like picking out curtains and how his parents want grandkids and the straight man (umm, in the serious sense not in the orientation sense) being mildly annoyed at the cover, but having to go along with it.

The fact that they are both male is never especially relevant. Nobody reacts to that aspect at all. And that seems exactly the way it should be.

It was nice to see, especially as it came out well before same-sex marriage was legal anywhere in the US.
