To everyone in the thread saying there shouldn't be more LGBT people "unless it moves the plot"…so does that mean we can also replace all straight romances with friendships unless the relationship being romantic moves the plot ? Because I think the only one that would be left then is Snow and Charming. Possibly Belle and Rumplestiltskin (and I'm not getting into that can of worms).

LGBT people exist (yes, really! Even when they're not in relationships! So Henry—or any other character, I'm just using the OP's example—could even come out without getting a love interest!), and the fact that you think there needs a "point" to the existence of LGBT character speaks more of your heteronormativity than anything else.
