It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
CW for article: homophobic, transphobic, but you already knew that. https://archive.ph/YORQM
Again, have to point this out, like a goddamn psychotic compulsion:
Link being a twink who easily passes for a cute girl when he crossdresses is a plot point in BOTW, and in TOTK you can resolve a political dispute to get a cute mushroom hat that comes with not only a pink wig but also earrings and makeup
Also men and women from throughout the world are constantly hitting on him in both. Either its a world where bi/homosexuality is considered normal and uncontroversial or Link is just canonically the hottest man in Hyrule and the average guy is just willing to risk facing homophobia for a shot at banging him.
None of this even takes interpreting, this is all surface level lol

I think "Link is a gay icon" maybe leans hard into the theory that IRL gay people have adopted Link as an icon. I haven't seen much of that. LoZ imagery tends to spam the dorky gamer artistic space, rather than being particular to a given disposition.
At this point, Link is more a Rorschach test for the audience's sexuality. Given the fact that this young man has literally never fucked, despite being hit on by every Goron, Zora, and Sheikah in eye-shot, I'm prone to declaring him a pure Ace with tease tendencies.

Given the fact that Link's house in Hateno is now referred to as Zelda's house in TotK and there's still only one bed, they were definitely fucking.
Zelda is also a volcel
They're a volcel couple 
Ok that works too, ace couple non-sexually cuddling
