Ugh. That always annoyed me. It's like, because she doesn't look girlier and pretty like Daphne, then she's a lesbian?

That's so insulting, really. Just because some woman is nerdy and a little less feminine than other women, doesn't mean that she's a lesbian for fuck's sake.

At some point society started to rebel against the harmful stereotypes of men and women in media because barely anyone actually looks like the "idealized" version of what they were showing. Now we've moved to a different version where the unrealistic stereotypes are "good" and if you don't conform to that exact stereotype then you must be trans or "LGBTQ+".

Yeah it's the same shit from the 90's all over again. You aren't the Hollywood ideal of sexy? Gay! You like stuff that isn't stereotypical of your sex? Gay!

Very regressive bullshit.
