The Devil&#039;s Advocate WP wrote: While it is certainly true that you can do what you want in a fictional world, that world is still subjec to certain rules. In the RWBYverse, all indications are that reproduction occurs the old-fashioned way. You need the world to have a predominantly straight cis demographic make-up for them to have a large sustainable population. As such we can safely presume LGBT populations are roughly the same in Remnant as they are in the real world. Once you have an established fictional universe, you can't do certain things without undermining or changing the rules of that universe. People tend to get rightly annoyed when that happens, because the audience appreciates logical consistency in a story.

I was talking about shows in general when I wrote that. I know that there's no way that RWBY is like that, but in all honesty, you can make a show where there's a significantly larger portion of LGBT people, if you want to.
