Shame on you for being like most of the USA media who on one side of their face try to denounce anyone for being gay, and on the other hand just completely devour all the teen sex they can consume. Basically as slutty as they can be especially gay teens, and lesbians...This is a show intended for a young audience that just happens to be good enough to be enjoyed by adults as well. And some PARENTS are watching this show with their kids to help them learn to be more accepting. This kind of comments, and attitude make me ashamed of much of the gay community who talk, and comment this way. (especially being gay myself, and I cringe how some of my community almost prove a point of the anti-lgbtqia+ haters who say we are all about sex and nothing else....)

Freud theorized that everyone is bisexual at birth. Through societal conditioning our sexuality (personality in general) is determined fully by age 8. The “gay gene” wasn’t a thing in Freud’s day. He also said a certain % in everyone remains bi throughout life. When you look at nature, apart from breeding season many animals hang in “same sex” groups (all male/all female.) Engaging in queer activity when not reproducing is completely natural. Humans think we’re so far “above” how other life forms in nature behave.

[@gooodmorning4526]

@@davidvento5481 gay gene???? I've never heard of that. But thats interesting, I always assumed people were generally on a spectrum of bisexuality (from liking the same sex to liking the opposite sex, as it can be 30/70, 90/10, etc), except ace and aro people don't fit into that, and there are other complicating factors.

Absolutely. This world of teenagers having constant sex and doing drugs is such an alien reality to me as my childhood was nothing like that.

This is like the anti-Euphoria. Somewhere in the middle of over sexed, over drugged craze of Euphoria and this nearly puritanical almost non-sexual sweetness of Heartstopper is the actual high school experience.

[@Whackadoo1]

Both shows are true to life for teenagers in different ways.

[@frosted_1118]

In my opinion both Heartstopper and Euphoria are unrealistic and don’t signify the true high school experience 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@raginglyaccomplishednapper5344]

Actually, when it comes to my old high school, both extremes were very true 🤸✨ It just depended on the friend group : About half of my friends went to raves and did hard drugs on the regular, going to class completely high and drunk af, orgies and shit happening in between minors (ended up in an orgy at 16 before I even had a threesome xcnnxjd) ; the other half of my friends were super vanilla, only had super basic knowledge about sex, never watched porn, and just needed much more time for anything to happen (even without being asexual, interested in sex just not ready to confront the irl thing yet)

[@RicardodaSilvaRdS]

I think the actual teenage scene is a mix of both series. There's the phase of sweet innocence and than the phase of sucking dick and cock. At least it was like that in the schools of the city I live in (I didn't partake in none of those phases because I'm depressed weird loner 😂)

As someone on the ace spectrum who still loves romance and kissing and all that, this show is really affirming to me and my high school experience! Also even for my friends who were not ace at all, we didn't really talk about sex/ none of them had sex or super long-term relationships when we were in high school. I know a lot of people definitely do, but I think there's like at least a third of people who don't either because they don't want to or just don't happen upon it! So honestly, this series felt super honest. I feel like Sex Ed also does a pretty accurate job with the more sexual side of high school, without completely overblowing it like you Euphoria and other shows.

Watching with envy ( as a 71 year old,) wishing there had been something like this during my adolescence. As you both correctly noted, this is for the kids, full of important, relatable issues, choices, solutions. The myriad of coincidences and the fact that that every friend is either LGBTQ+ or an ally, works in the realm of television. On "Sex Education," the whole cast is banging away on a regular basis and the kids on "Euphoria" are in a very different world than I ever knew. Next season they'll all be eighteen so Trixie might get to see more than she bargained for. And in any case, it's got Olivia Colman, so there's that...

I absolutely love the fact that they don’t do more than kissing in this season and talk about not being ready.

Teenagers don’t understand fully the complexities of relationships. So I appreciate heartstopper for their realness.

[@twobluestripes]

I’m convinced Tao’s wacky hair is because the actor Will Gao (who is far too young for me, let’s be clear) is superhumanly attractive. The character needs to be established a bit more cartoony, animated, goofy. He’s in the “kind of outcast” friend group, and even though he’s east asian and a film nerd, the actor is so beautiful (and tall) he needs a little grounding to read weirder on TV. He and Joe Locke (curly hair actor for Charlie) could and inlbelieve absolutely have do print modeling and could do runway too, I think most of the cast can and will, actually. Even after the haircut they make extra sure to communicate “dorky handsome” with the outfit and new hairstyle. But he’s moving into more of a leading man look in Paris episodes without losing the little visible quirks of his personality through acting.

[@applecarameled]

You’re 100% correct. Could you imagine a taller boy who looks like Will Gao being bullied by a boy who like Harry? That’s not believable at all haha, so the director needed to tone down his looks

[@journalleetv]

I know a lot of people complain that the lack of sex in heartstopper is "unrealistic", but as someone who did not have sex in high school, I feel grateful for the representation. Not EVERYONE is doing that at that age, so not every show needs to have its teen characters do it either.

tbh, one reason why I enjoy Heartstopper is because it's not trying to represent an accurate and relatable teenage experience.

[@Thegabub]

It is, though. Just because we didn't have these experiences, doesn't mean other people are not having them.

[@sunnyv7745]

I personally think this is what teenagers in the present go through so it is representing their lives but not so much those of us who are way older than them. Not all teenagers do drugs, sex or party even if they will have romantic relationships so this story does represent real life a bit more even if some parts can seem too safe etc. This series is like so many other wholesome gay comics about teens including the Asian ones. Asian countries have been creating wholesome gay series and movies (with young and old gay couples) for a while now and I'm surprised it took the West longer than I expected to portray gay main characters in TV series.

[@marianne5055]

I agree. I think it’s partly why I had a hard time getting through Euphoria. That just wasn’t my or my friends experiences. And even though this show isn’t 100% my experience either (like all the out kids) I find it a lot more relatable.
