This is a great example of why representation is important. But tbe bones of this secret is about relating to characters and I've definitely heard people go on and on and ON about how they just can't relate and don't care about two white straight people in love. As if the love they feel is different from nonwhite LGBT love.

And that's a ridiculous argument. And calling it out as ridiculous is in no way saying "why do we need love stories with diverse people when Whitney Straightersons will do?!" before anyone tries to make that claim about this comment.

I'll be honest. I can't relate anymore. I used to, but it became the norm and so shove down my throat as You Should Be This (I did not have a happy life after coming out) that I stopped relating to that aspect, and no, I don't care anymore. Because I had that ideal shoved on me with people trying to forcibly hook me up with guys or even one guy who ignored that I was ENGAGED and tried to force me to date him by calling my mother up and telling her she should encourage me to date him.

Don't fucking assume.

there are many facets of being in a gay relationship that differ from a straight relationship, and I assume the same is true of non-white relationships in countries with white majority populations. saying "all love is the same!" makes for a great bumper sticker or protest sign, but when we're talking about enjoying media, there are plenty of reasons individuals might not relate to straight or otherwise "mainstream" relationships solely because of those elements.

You can never take my Disney animated features away from me, but there is something special about reading a novel with expertly portrayed LGBTQ people.
