Any character, any fandom, A queer timetraveler from one era explores the queer culture of another era, and finds it to be not what they expected from high school social studies.
Any character, any fandom, A genderqueer or trans person tries to explain the concept of gender identity (and gender dysphoria) to a robot or other member of a genderless species.
Any fandom, any robot, Realizing you have a gender identity.
Any fandom, any character, Becoming politically active after coming out.
Any fandom, any character, an asexual feeling unwelcome in an LGBT community that refuses to consider them queer.
Any fandom, any character, five times things were explained to children, and one time they were explained to adults.
Any fandom, any asexual character, You called yourself gay, because that was the option that meant you weren't attracted to [oppositegender], and assumed that you'd eventually want to have sex with [samegender] if you tried hard enough. Then you found the third option.

Ace Attorney, FtM!Ron DeLite/Desiree Delite, Desiree supports Ron through transitioning.
Ace Attorney, FtM!Ron DeLite, "If you're supposed to be a man, why do you look so much like a girl?" Why Godot's words on 'being a man' meant so much to Ron.
Ace Attorney, original Yatagarasu, Is it the Yatagarasu's business to out an anti-gay activist, even if the target's affected them personally?

Batman, Batman/Catwoman, Their constant flirting makes people assume they're sexually attracted to each other. They're not...but that doesn't make things any less complicated.
Batman, Batman, Bruce Wayne is enthusiastically heterosexual, Batman is asexual, and none of the women he dates want to admit they're the one Bruce Wayne wouldn't sleep with.

Batman, trans!Riddler, "Answering the riddle of myself".
Batman, asexual!Mad Hatter, Wonderland is pure, chaste, innocent. It's one more reason he'd rather be there than in the sex-obsessed 'real world'.

Batman: Brave and the Bold, Music Meister, He's not ashamed, exactly. It's just that when you're a musical-obsessed supervillain with a fondness for purple and a Liberace outfit on your costume rack people make assumptions about your preferences, and Music Meister hates the idea of being a stereotype.

DCAU (Justice League Unlimited), Vigilante/Shining Knight, Being made to see that durn cowboy movie (Brokeback Mountain) done gave Vigilante *ideas*. But how does one go about courtin' a guy from a different *millennia*, let alone century - without getting his head kicked in by Winged Victory, or cut off by a sword. And if he's doin' the courtin', is he the man, or what? (Basically, generational differences on homosexuality/gender roles).

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, Dr. Horrible, Doc starts working on a sex-swapping ray with the thought of humiliating Captain Hammer. When someone in the local trans community hears about it and offers a group of free (and enthusiastic) test subjects, Doc starts reconsidering the ultimate goal...and whether it's a far more personal project than it first seemed to be.

Hogan's Heroes, Andrew Carter, He's not stupid as all that. He knows how sex works. He likes women too. He just doesn't get why the other fellas are so obsessed with getting in bed with them.

MCU, pretty much everyone, Six Avengers, three SHIELD agents, nine ways of being queer.

Pacific Rim, any characters, In order to partner in a Jaeger, all mental barriers must be dropped and all secrets will be bared. Therefore it's best to get all the awkward conversations out of the way before you go in.
Pacific Rim, any character, Jaeger Pilots are automatic celebrities, the last best hope of humanity against the kaiju menace. How does the world react to being saved by queer people?
Pacific Rim, any characters, That time your partner picked up on it before you did.
Pacific Rim, Newt Geislzer and Hermann Gottlieb, things discovered in the Drift. Pairing optional.
Pacific Rim, Sasha and Aleksis Kaidanovskys, "Yep, “Sasha” and “Aleksis” are both forms of “Alexander.” Look, they screw with people. It’s a bit of an inside joke of theirs. It’s a thing they do." - Travis Beacham Cherno Alpha's pilots like to keep people guessing on which of them has which name. As to which is the man and which is the woman...that's a little more complicated.

Psychonauts, any character, in the mental world emotional baggages are sobbing suitcases, emotional demons are actual monsters, and the closet is literally a closet.
Psychonauts, any character, the change in a mental world's terrain during a period of exploration and self-acceptance by its owner.

A Study in Emerald, Moran/Moriarty, “I have a feeling,’ he said, ‘I have a feeling that we were meant to be together. That we have fought the good fight, side by side, in the past or in the future, I do not know. I am a rational man, but I have learned the value of a good companion, and from the moment I clapped eyes on you, I knew I trusted you as well as I do myself. Yes, I want you with me.” The AU-Victorian subtext of such language, and the reasoning behind such coding. What is queer life like under the Old Ones?

Sleepy Hollow, any character, Ichabod Crane's latest culture clash involves modern culture's perceptions of LGBTQA people. He's not bigoted, just very, very confused. His friend has to guide him through his confusion, while privately panicking over exactly how to explain their own status.
Sleepy Hllow, Ichabod Crane, When someone makes an ill-informed comment about historical homophobia and gay culture, Crane once again steps in with yet another lecture on Why You Are Wrong About the 18th Century. It's not until later that Abbie asks him how he knows about the matter in so much detail.

Star Trek Enterprise, Dr. Phlox, Denobulan conception and categorization of sexuality are actually far more complicated than human ones. Fortunately, Phlox brought charts.

Welcome to Night Vale, Carlos, After Cecil gushes about their relationship to the entire town, Carlos waits for the other shoe to drop. It doesn't. (Though there is a brief rain of socks.)
Welcome to Night Vale, Megan Wallaby, After the girl often referred to as "an adult man's hand" gets her full body transplant gives her the power of speech (and significant speech therapy instructs her in how to use it), she's invited as a guest to Cecil's show. And she has a lot to say.
