Friction is something it works very well between party members as it smoothes out through the course of adventures. But like you say, the cultural differences and also preconceptions about X or Y people and their customs work very well at creating that conflict between people that come from different origins or paths of life.Doesn't even need to be friction or any antagonism. Like you say, cultures are very different and that can be a starting point for the conflict of a good story.
Thing is, for that you need to be creative and have the skill to craft a good narrative that it's interesting. That is the problem here: these people can only write qbout gay shit and romance. And that's not a plot for fantasy, that's the subplot and the characterisation. At least try to make it some quest to find the magic to change yyour sex, but nah, you need effort for that.
And if a retard like me can get something mildly good in that area for a shitty little project, anyone can. But the people creating this (and sadly, a lot of mainstream media) are politics first and creativity second. Their ideas have to conform to their idiotic beliefs first and foremost and after chopping off everything problematic, things start to flow. If anything, one should be able to make characters that you appreciate but you don't agree with. Different ideas on morality, issues, religious beliefs... But the average SJW needs to make a feelgood "everyone is ok with everyone despite their obvious differences, be them physical or cultural". It's so fucking boring...
