Actress Ruby Rose has deleted her social media presence, after facing a backlash for being cast as "Batwoman" -- not from the right, angry that the self-described lesbian character will be played as written, but from the left, who declared Rose "not gay enough" to play the female superhero.
But LGBT and other leftist activists weren't happy; Rose is gender fluid, they complained, and Batwoman's alter ego, Kate Kane, is a self-declared lesbian, which means Rose isn't gay enough.
"A #RecastBatwoman hashtag started circulating, with people also wondering why the role couldn't have gone to a lesser-known LGBTQ+ actress in need of an acting break," women's magazine Glamour reported. "Critics also accused Rose of not being a lesbian since she also refers to herself as gender-fluid."
