If Saban were ever to entertain the idea of a gay male ranger, it'd be the most tone-deaf idea to make him a Pink Ranger.

As a gay dude (who wears pink on occasion, just like every man born after 1980, duh), I'd find the notion utterly, completely, unforgivably offensive. It would be the equivalent of making the first Yellow Ranger an Asian-American or the first Black Ranger an African-American (so, uh, is not something I'd put past Saban, honestly :lol ). It would be so dumb, moronic, and ill-advised you hope it wouldn't ever be possible.

A ranger's color is more than just a fashion choice -- it's a representation of an archetype. It's THE ONLY distinguishing element that (s)he presents to the world. Pink, fairly or not, is culturally an archetypal "girl" color (this is dumb, obviously, but in 2016 it's still an inescapable truth). And since the "screaming queen" is a pejorative gay stereotype, it'd would be best for Saban to avoid perpetuating said stereotype by making their hypothetical, first gay male ranger pink.

If there were like, 10 straight male pink rangers or 10 gay non-pink rangers, it would be another thing altogether. But since we've had neither a gay ranger nor a male pink ranger, a gay male pink ranger is one of the most offensive proposals ever conceived.

Glad to hear an actual gay person's opinion on having a gay male Pink Ranger.

So me saying I was gay earlier didn't register? Also, just so you know, Pink is my least favorite color, tied with Purple.

Hero Scientist: And for you, pink morpher!

Ranger: I hate pink!

Hero Scientist: Too bad! You are Ranger Pink!

If they do decide it will be very subtle, like Legend of Korra.

Well if Alata has an earring in his left ear and apparently according to Google a guy with an earring in only his left ear is telling other gay guys that he's gay, then Alata's probably the closest you'd ever come to a gay Ranger.

Even though he's technically not a Power Ranger, he's from a Japanese series and Japan might not have that custom and Alata isn't even human so why would he adopt a human custom like that?

I thought that happened with a Hero Sorceress?
