God, when I was a teenager, I couldn't even fathom seeing so much canon gay content in mainstream media. I spent my entire youth feeling like I was different and wrong for being queer, projecting onto anyone even a little bit coded as queer. I am in my 20s now, and it still makes me tear up seeing the representation. I can't even put it into words how important it is to me, especially when straight people question why we need gay characters in media. Because 13 year old me thought there was something wrong me, and I'm only now, over 10 years later, seeing that there was NEVER anything wrong with me. I'm so happy teens these days have things like Shera, Heartstopper, Nimona, Good Omens, Our Flag Means Death, and many more. Even one of those shows would have made me feel a little less alone
#yes and i watched heartstopper and sobbed#especially the gay teacher who felt like he was too old#hit me HARD#and with Isaac being aro/ace while I'm questioning being aromantic!?#my little gay heart cant take it#i wouldnt go back to being a teen ever again but fuck i wish i had reprentation when I was young
