Are their some people who are kinda...fed up?
I like Netflix. A lot. And their originals, but lately they're been making me extremely uncomfortable with all the gay things they put into their 2018 and up shows. This usually wouldn't be a problem IF I didn't only watch shows that young children would watch. Thinking about it that way makes it much more uncomfortable for me. As of recently, i was generally fine with it as i was there for the story. However, with the 5 season of one of my favorite shows, She-ra and the princesses of power, it gave me the feeling that Netflix no longer has the intention of pushing out straight relationships anymore. Firstly, there are officially 3 homosexual relationships in the show, along with a genderless character. There are 2 straight relationships, however there wasn't a lot of clarity whether the characters were actually in a relationship. They did say 'I love you', but that word was overly used over the course of the season, mainly between friends. Unlike the gay relationships, there wasn't any kissing or loving looks. 2 of my favorite characters were one of the straight relationships who weren't given any of the kisses and such the gay relationships did. Which is kinda disappointing as a straight person, because i was hoping for the kiss between them the most. Along with the 2nd straight couple, because there wasn't even any confirmation the female liked the male back. And honestly i still haven't found out whether they're in a relationship now. I've told a couple of people about this, but they're gay and they say Netflix is doing it to represent the gay community. But with the release of that season, i feel like Netflix needs to take a chill-pill back with all the gay representation. Im sure im not the only person that feels uncomfortable with all the gay things major companies are constantly pushing out onto the minds of children. However, i have no one to talk to since it seems like nowadays every person is simply okay with this. So i want to talk to people who actually understand me. And if you don't, thats okay.
the problem with that way of thinking is a lot of children don't learn what being gay is until much later in life. I didn't know it was possible for two people of the same sex to like eachother until I was 13 and within a couple years I was openly identifying as a lesbian because I was able to recognise my feelings as something beyond friendship.
