Not gonna lie, that shit annoyed the piss out of me, too. But the difference is, with The Outer Worlds, you have the OPTION of ignoring it, and avoiding it. I don't mind if it's just casually included in games so lesbians/gays can play a character they can more relate to. Doesn't bother me. There was even one other game that kind of went down that road where you could ONLY have homosexual relationships with x% of the NPCs that were already "gay", and that percentage represented the same number as were in the general populace. Forget the game, but I thought that was an interesting take. Most games just get around it by going, "Okay, sure, whatever, your character can bang anyone they want." Thought that was an interesting way to permit it.
I just simply left the lesbo in the ship. She wasn't part of my party because I didn't want the constant reminder of, "Oh hey, remember how I'm a lesbian?" in my ear while I'm trying to enjoy a video game.
Still wouldn't recommend it for children, regardless.
But "The Last Of Us" is overt, and there's no getting away from it. Your MAIN CHARACTER is a fucking tranny.
Glad I wasn't the only one that bothered. Maybe it gets better, but I got a little tired of traveling out there and doing the same bit of search quests.
I loved New Vegas (Hail Caesar!). But I got annoyed at the gay followers they put in there as well. Dragon Age Inquisition did the same thing.... even a trans character (I think. You can never be sure) and I could not finish it.
Actually, Dragon Age Inquisition pissed me off in the character generation phase, where being a human fighter or rogue got a lecture about how you were "privileged" in the opening text. I hate that word so damn much now.
Which is a pity. I loved Dragon Age Origins.
How does it make sense to have a tranny in the world of last of us anyway? I'm pretty sure it's gonna be damn hard to find estrogen or testosterone injections after the civilization collapse.
Technically there's TWO trannies in Last of Us. "Lev" is an overt tranny (kicked out of her/his group for being one.) Abby they tried to do "subtly" by SAYING it's a female, but making it look like a dude.
Let’s be honest, things would go Spartan in apocalyptic situations. Leadership would be hard won, there’s be no place for identity politics. You contribute or you die.

They always play these mind games for us.
But I think, realistically, nothing would wipe out LGBT nonsense more than an apocalypse?
"What? You don't like him? Sorry, but we need babies. You're a girl, he's a guy, get at it. Lie back and think of America."
"Oh, you're wearing a skirt you dug out of the wreckage of Macy's? Ha ha. Very funny. Get the weatherproof trousers on, you moron."
