I kimd of am, why are so many relationships in media strsight? We need more lgbt representation
This is dumb and I’m probably getting offended for no reason but here’s a small experience I dealt with recently
So like 30 minutes ago my grandmother wanted me to smile so she told me to think of a pretty girl and while I didn’t react at all my first thought was literally “why not pretty boys” Its silly I know.
I’m not out but I literally couldn’t be leaving anymore hints that I’m bi. Its funny how nobody noticed yet
I totally get the wish to see more representation in media. Fortunately there is more and more LGBTQ+ positive content. (Asking for suggestions might be an interesting topic! I’d go for Our Flag Means Death and The Sandman.)
Getting heteronormative behavior pressured into you by your surroundings at every step of life is another issue. And It’s so stuffy and codified and normed too. Do you have a girlfriend? When will you get married? When’s the baby? Uuurgh.
Yeah, it was extremely awkward especially when I was still with my now ex. They would jokingly ask if I’m texting a girl while I was texting my bf at the time

And for an older one I saw recently, the cheerleader was a good, if dated, option.
