What is your market?
Although times have changed and more people are accepting of both gay rights and the right to marry, certain people are still very closed minded. A Disney channel programme called 'Good luck Charlie' had mothers complaining and against a child in the show having two mothers however Disney went ahead with the original plot, showing that large production companies aren’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers just because someone else doesn’t have the same views that they do.
My target audience would be for people between 20's and 30's as they would have previous relationship experience, they would be open minded and want to see a love story away from the cookie cutter image of Hollywood.
