There was a book I read recently where the rag-tag crew of the spaceship was mostly women and some of them were gay. Mind you, it didn't make a speck of difference to the excellence of the story, but it might be the sort of thing the Sad Puppies are whimpering about. I can't remember the name of the book at the moment, but if I find it I will let you know.
As far as I can follow Torgersen's analogy, he seems to be upset that science fiction isn't the same story over and over. It's not like there's a shortage of his kind of story, but he's angry that other kinds of stories even *exist* in science fiction, because he might read one by accident.
