Why did they not make Geralt of Rivia a gay black pre hrt/surgery trans man in the Witcher tv show?

I just feel like the show has too many heteronormative white characters and it needs a larger range of diversity. On top of my above suggestion they should also have made them disabled and obese.

Nobody would watch it. It seems they toe the line just short of utterly ridiculous so you can still enjoy the shows with a few little annoyances. "Oh look, there's that race/genderbent character again! I'll try to ignore it because it's so decent otherwise. Oh, there she is again, am I getting used to it? Not really, it's just slightly less irritating. Why did they make her so angry though?"

When you want to catch a fish you have to bait the line. See movies like woman king or bros for what happens when there is no bait.
