My main take away from But Im A Cheerleader right after watching it might be suprising (idk that for sure, since i just wathced it, but ya never know) but... its lowkey a sad and bittersweet story

Like, most of the kids at the camp either quit or are thrown out, which most likely means they have nowhere to go... unless they can find older supportive queers like Megan and Dolph did

The movie ends with the main character getting the girl and runnig away together... While the remaining kids at true directions complete thier "graduation"

The conversion therapy camp isnt destroyed, or overthrown, or discredited - it will probably continue for years or decades after Megan and Graham escape...

BUT

even still, as long as those lucky few kids manage to escape this awful system, it is still a victory, no matter how small in the grand scheme of things it is - even if not everyone could have been saved

one day you think: i want to die.

and then you think, very quietly: actually. actually.

i think i want a coffee.

a nap.

a sandwich.

a book.

and i want to die turns day by day into

i want to go home,

i want to walk in the woods,

i want to see my friend,

i want to sit in the sun,

i want a cleaner kitchen,

i want a better job,

i want to live somewhere else,

i want to live.

(poem from duckbunny, but with a lesbian twist. post inspired by bittersweetresilience.)
