Does each contry/regions have it's own advice or all share the same? Does people totally don't care considering Runeterra is a world permanently in war so they focus on more important things? Does people have norms and they don't like them being broken? Does people still debate about it?
I'd say that people don't care at least in Ionia, since Kai's family accepts naturally Valmar and Kayn have (or had) a crush on Zed.
Rebonack9 votesSexuality varies radically from one culture to another IRL, so I imagine it would be the same in Runeterra.
Sharjo10 votesWhat Rebonack said. We've got Demacia, who seems to have a strong patriarchy going on and are likely pretty traditional in mindset, while places like Piltover, Noxus and Ionia have all shown acceptance of homosexual relationships, implying further acceptance for sexualities beyond that. Basically it's all cultural.

I'd argue Noxus would be more against it than Demacia would, as it doesn't promote procreation. As far as I've seen, Noxus is all for procreation (to have more soldiers).
Sharjo8 votesNoxus is about conquering and strength, and really the character Tamara is probably the main point to stand as Noxus being ok with homosexuals since she's basically serving immediately under Darius, who treats her with about as much respect as a warmason of her rank deserves.

Yet, that's one individual from a whole nation. One individual does not speak for a whole nation in a universe like League's.
Sharjo6 votesIn a super high up military position though?
Not to mention there's the whole thing of her perspective in Progress Day not having the undercurrent of "Oh if only I could indulge this but they'd never approve in Noxus". She has the freedom to actually think like that and not worry about people putting her down, which speaks volumes by itself.
Star Guardían4 votesIt says right on the Universe page that Noxus is very accepting of the cultures that they conquer so long as they submit to Nixon’s rule.
TheGreatRasputin3 votesI didn't know Richard Nixon was in Runeterra now!
GreenLore4 votesKeep in mind that Noxus also accepts people from their conquered territories as long as they are loyal to them.
They don't care where you came from or who you are,they only care if you serve them or not,so I doubt that sexuality is really important to them.

Hmm, maybe when putting it that way. I would still think procreation is still highly supported or held in high regard within Noxus.
Outside of Illaoi, how many religious character are there in League?
Ahristocats1 voteswhile places like Piltover, Noxus and Ionia have all shown acceptance of homosexual relationships, implying further acceptance for sexualities beyond that.
and where exactly did you see that?
Sharjo9 votes"Progress Day", "Last Deep Breath", "Darius: Blood of Noxus" and all of the Varus stuff. All showcase homosexual people functioning in society to a degree.
Hovering Hentai2 votesI apologise if this seems rude but did you mean "Deep Breath" Janna's short story?
Sharjo3 votesNot rude at all and yes, that's what I meant. Thanks for the correction!
Epicurus1 votesWould it be reasonable to assume that Illaoi's culture would also be non-discriminatory in this regard? I think it fits with their philosophy of taking pleasure wherever they find it.
Sharjo3 votesYeah I can see it, though unlike the others I listed we're extrapolating there where as we've seen characters in Noxus, Piltover, Zaun and Ionia who're LGBT. It does make sense but there's less grounding for it based on what's been shown at the moment.

I understand Ionia (KaixValmar, KaynxZed, etc). Ionia seems to be a very... liberal society. They don't seem like the sort to make sexuality a political issue and instead follow their hearts and encourage others to follow their hearts, too.
But what examples of Piltover and Noxus are there of them accepting homesexuality? I'm genuinely curious!
Epicurus6 votesThat Riot comment about Kayn and Zed was a joke by the way. Thought you ought to know.
Hextech OwI4 votesI don't see any Rioter comment saying it's a joke...[sg-lulu]
#We gotta keep the meme alive
Tesla Effect3 votesWe dont know for sure, that aspect of the factions culture was not explained yet. In Ionia we do see that some people dont mind same sex couples, but thats about it, and thats only withing a family group and people that knew Valmar and Kai closely.
Jobriq2 votesAhri
XIII Vanitas2 votesIf I had to guess, the only two Runeterran regions where male homosexuality is frowned upon should be Shurima and Demacia, because patriarchal societies consider sexual passivity as a feminine trait.
Whyte Lyon1 votesI feel like after one reads enough lore or at least has a decent comprehension of it, they can make their own educated conclusions.
Edit: Apparently one person thinks others shouldn't be able to interpret the details from established world building and comprehend how each region may or may not function socially or culturally. Which happens to be what everyone above is doing.
Hextech OwI3 votesOne can also participate to a discussion without being harsh :/
Whyte Lyon1 votesHow was I harsh now?
Am I to gather that the initial sentence is being 'harsh'?
Or is it the edit, which is just a stupid over reaction to being downvoted at a much earlier time. Of which I wanted to point out the weird hypocrisy for having been given the earlier downvote for encouraging what all others above are doing.
Regardless, my main point now and forever is the initial statement, if that is somehow wrong then I dont want to be right.
Hextech OwI2 votesYour answer to my post was basically "go read the lore"...
Whyte Lyon1 votes[sg-zephyr] Ah so I assumed correct, there has been a wild misapprehension of my words.
I fail to see how telling someone they should read the lore could be received as offensive advise, as thats good advise if you ask me. But never mind that because in this case I wasn't actually telling you or anyone to "go read the lore" nor was it an attempt to be derisive.
And Im only going to assume first that you do genuinely read the lore, if not some of it.
So I'll rephrase the one thing I've said twice already, the point above was if anyone is familar with the different parts of the world then they will be able to understand and make there own fairly accurate conclusions on how the different regions likely operate socially and culturally.
Thank you, your misunderstanding has been exhausting.
