You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Anyone who enjoys watching something so harmful and disgusting shouldn’t be allowed to consume LGBTQ+ media. Too many horrible tropes, like fujoshis, rape, incest, and the romanticization of it all. I’m sure there are more that I haven’t mentioned.

Gay relationships aren’t your little toy scenarios to play with. Of course we want representation in the media for other types of love, OF COURSE WE DO! But negative and just creepy and overused portrayals like this are not what we need. People need to stop romanticizing toxic behaviour— there’s a difference between dramatic and heavy topics shown within media and just plain romanticization of toxicity. There’s also a way for films and shows to clearly highlight very toxic things within relationships and friendships without putting them on a pedestal and labeling them as cute or desirable and OKAY.

I expected more from the History series. I guess the departing of the screen writer or whomever that woman that left to write We Best Love instead really damaged everyone else’s heads. This isn’t cute. It’s shameful.
