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.
Rose, who typically dresses as female but identifies as “gender fluid,” was cast as the first openly gay superhero to headline a network television show last week, making entertainment — and comic book — history. Critics hailed the casting as “perfect,” and Rose described the role as a “childhood dream.”
