I think a lot about Fabiola from Never Have I Ever and how a lot of the time her butchness isn't very stylish. She just looks like a dork. They screwed up a lot with her and NHIE is by no means a perfect (or even necessarily amazing) show, but I appreciate that she gets to be a loser and that her masculinity doesn't have to be one that's conventionally attractive.
