I do think the scale could eventually start to tip in the other direction years and possibly decades from now where being white and heterosexual becomes the minority.
I don’t think being heterosexual will ever become the minority.
If you look at it in terms of world population, whites already are in the minority. So it all depends on which group holds the most power in the culture that the media represents. It is so difficult to explain but basically the minorities now will become the majorities in the future whilst the majority now will become a future minority because everyone is so focussed on equality of the minorities now. For example, women are given more top tier jobs because of equality however eventually the scales will tip too far in that direction where it is harder to get a top tier job if you are a man instead of it being equal opportunity. Does that make sense?
It is a possibility for some groups in some situations. But generally speaking, I doubt that the balance of power will swing so far in the other direction. Or if it does, it’ll be many, many decades into the future. I’d say it’s more of a slippery slope argument than anything else. Feminism has been around for over a century now and women still get undervalued, under represented and have to deal with all kinds of harrassment. The same goes for the civil rights movement (5 decades ?) and gay rights movement (2 decades ?). So for now, I think we need to continue fighting for equality and better representation for minorities.
I think your right, but I do think it’s something to be aware of, as you say “a slippery slope”. Just to clarify I do support under-represented groups to be more represented, I’m not saying they shouldn’t be.

Keeper of FelixBelieve what you think it will be. But what you might think or wish might never come true like the many last times. There will always be big twists that turn opposite to what you wish or imagine.
Well I guessed Walshe was a flying monkey and that “Nathaniel” and “Jacob” were Jekyll and Hyde months before the actual reveals so my guesses and thoughts aren’t wrong “many” times as you so claim. I think you’re deceiving yourself if you think Emma is going to go back to her season 1 self. She’s part of CS now, and for that very reason is why she’s not going to be season 1 Emma again. In order for CS to work, Emma has to be like she is now otherwise it falls apart.

Keeper of FelixHenry should get a part time job at either Granny’s or the pharmacy working for Sneezy. He’d be in a good place to overhear useful information and it also keeps him out of the way.

Keeper of FelixIt doesn’t matter if they didn’t say strong sheriff. They said sheriff, which makes it sound like a hint and clue. Even though it might not happen, it’s possible.
A hint and clue to what? That Emma may actually do her job? No doubt she’ll enlist Hook as part of the sheriff team which means we’ll get the Emma we’ve had for the past 2.5 season and not the “strong” Emma of the first two seasons. The only benefit that may come from Hook joining the sheriff department is that Hook and Charming may share more scenes together, possibly just the two of them, as they go and investigate something.

Keeper of FelixGranny’s profits should rocket with the influx of new customers, both for the diner and the inn.
Like them mentioning Emma back as the strong sheriff woman.
They didn’t say that Emma would go back to the “strong sheriff woman” she was in season 1 and 2. They just said she’d go back to being the sheriff. It’s likely we’ll just see her sheriffing. Whilst it would be nice to see Emma go back to the strong personality she was in season 1 and 2, I think they’re too far down the road now to give her a sudden 180 turn in personality. They could set the wheels in motion this season at most but I doubt Emma will ever return to her season 1 self.

Keeper of FelixDreamWorks did Sinbad so Disney might want to put their own spin on it.
The land of untold stories has so much potential because they are then not bound by Disney. There is still some Disney movies they’ve yet to do like Aladdin, Hunchback of Notre Dame and Hocus Pocus but they can now do stories like Dracula etc.

Keeper of FelixSinbad is an actual thing though so unless they make Aladdin Sinbad and Sinbad is just an alias he uses, I don’t know. Hopefully we’ll get Jafar from Wonderland.

Keeper of FelixInteresting. Definitely thinking we’re leading up to Aladdin now.
Sinbad is probably going to be something to do with Hook.

Keeper of FelixI think it’s possible they may have Dopey “alive” on the show but he will constantly be off-screen eg he’s at the mines a lot but when there is a scene in the mines, Dopey would’ve conveniently taken some time off. If Dopey was with Happy, it will be Happy that tells the main group about something whilst Dopey is off busy doing something else.
