I love Love, Simon. I mean really love. I read the novel, Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda and then watched the movie. And Nick Robinson is a real cutie too so...
Today, I got started on Love, Victor. I know, I know. The show's already over and I'm just starting it. I have to say, I relate way more to Victor than to Simon. People in school made fun of gay kids and not everyone in my family (especially my grandparents and father) are accepting of gay people. It made it difficult to come out, which is why I didn't for years. I never got to experience high school romances and young love. I wasn't allowed to. So I definitely relate more to Victor.
However, I think Victor still gets to come out as a teenager, based on things I've seen people post. It also helps that Victor is an amazing basketball player and cute as hell. Most of us don't get those things. Oh well, this post kinda went off the rails so I'll shut up about it now.
P.S. I like the show, based on the first episode anyway.
