​@@FeatheredWingz I can see why they think that, to be honest. Heartstopper doesn't have all that tragic drama and A LOT of people (like Trixie, for example) complained it's too unrealistic.

[@eliguiga]

22:43 Katya is so genuine when she talks about their romance being age appropriate here that you can sorta see some anger in her face, and I get the feeling it comes from the fact that much of what we see nowadays in teenage coming-of-age movies and series is overwhelmingly sexual and they end up missing the point. A lot of us didn’t get to experience this kind of romance when we were teenagers because being gay was so taboo and when we turned to entertainment they would only show steeyotypical caracters who only represented a small chunck of our community. A lot of us didn’t believe we could have this type of romance in our lives. I think that’s one of the main reasons this show was so successful. It shows pure, innocent romance between two young men without neglecting the hardships that queer people have to go through for not being heteronormative. Truly, this plot and storytelling were incredibly well done and I think we can all tell from the way these two were reacting to the show. ♥️

[@ChaoticGoodDeeds]

A quick note because you say you are a non-native English speaker: It says "blonde women in succession". "Women" (with an "e") refers to both Trixie and Katya (woman with an "a" is the singular), "in succession" means one after the other. So Trixie says "Now" and then Katya immediately says "Now" afterwards, the short way to note this is to write "in succession" in the subtitles. I saw another comment thinking this is referring to the TV show Succession, so I hope this helps clarify! :)

Kids just want some type of confirmation I won't be surprised even if they still take those quizes even now. Cause the default since the moment you are born is straight and once you realise you aren't feeling the same as the people around you then you gonna have to want some type of confirmation without fear of judgement and you have Google for that

Not "Am I bisexual" but "WHAT IS bisexuality" . And he is like 17 in the show (right?) and you KNOW what it is at that point, maybe not if you are it. I think that's her main complaint :D

[@waywardsister2152]

I'm gen z and I googled all of that at some point because we didn't learn shit about it in school and I wondered what all those terms meant. I finally realised I'm bi when I was 19 after mulling it over in my head on and off for roughly two years. And the number of times I googled "bisexuality" is wild. Nick was much more straight forward with that then I was. Especially since I wasn't actually attracted to anyone until I was 17. Being bi can be so confusing. I'm certain that I am not the only one who struggles with gatekeeping themselves. There are times I think I'm fooling myself and that I'm actually straight and then there are times when I think I'm fooling myself and that I'm actually a lesbian. So yeah the googleing is very authentic. Especially for a bi, pan, or omni person.

[@emmasdilemma1394]

the amount that I relate to this 😭😭

[@ninapilgrim]

Oooo yeah. And as a girl, reading about comphet was a trip too. Thinking I was actually a lesbian just lying to myself, while I'm actually really pan 😮‍💨 AND understanding that comphet is still very real for all wlw people anyways!

[@Sam27908]

This is so relatable!

[@waywardsister2152]

@@Diegotheparrot Omni- and pansexuality lie on the same spectrum as bisexuality. Bi means attraction to 2 or more genders (can be all of them but doesn't have to). Pan means attraction regardless of gender so gender plays no role in attraction at all. Omni means attraction to all genders but gender does play a role in that attraction (like a gender preference or the attraction may feel different depending on gender). I hope that helped.

It’s presented in a way that meant I could watch it with my 8 and 12 year old boys.

When my eldest saw Nick googling, he immediately said “that’s totally something I’d do too!”.

I think with nick googling “bisexuality” it was less of him not knowing what it was and more of him wanting to look into it to see if it could in fact apply to him. Because of stereotypes and bisexual erasure, it can take a while before you realize that bisexuality applies to you even if you already know what it is. that was my exact experience. I’ve known what bisexuality is since middle school but when I was 21 I found myself googling bisexuality because I wanted to do a deeper dive into it and yep, turns out I am 100% bisexual

[@AzzurroProductions]

Exactly!!! But I think since they only watched it "briefly" that part got lost! So I don't blame them. At 16/17 you KNOW what it is, but probably not if that's you. I don't think they watch all the episodes, but parts of it.

i do think these two must've just had the most insane high school experience because even as someone who grew up going to school in a building being held up by toothpicks with a budget of 2 cents and a paper clip, school was never as shitty or sketchy as it's depicted in most shows like euphoria. the private school rich kids thing is still hard to relate to, but at 15, the purity and innocence of these characters, and the lack of understanding of themselves, is really real.
