Until recently, we lived in that world. Does this person really believe homosexuals don't play heterosexuals? Now we are moving towards a world where your gender, race, and culture has to match the character you are voicing in animated shows.

Well, *ahem*, only in certain scenarios.

Obviously the best voice actor would voice Superman, Batman, Aquaman, etc., and it would not (and, for the record, I do not think it should) matter what the voice actor's background is.

Black Panther? A female/gay/trans/non-European character? You bet your arse you better line up PERFECTLY from an identity standpoint or prepare thy anus. No middle "merit based" option there.
