Straight people can look at the majority of all the TV shows and movies ever made and see only straight people in them and then have the audacity to say that Heartstopper is not realistic because the majority of the characters are queer ???? You're just homophobic bestie we had and HAVE to deal with straight people in every kind of media being the only ones there for years now you can get a taste of that feeling

I love how much Heartstopper emphasises queer COMMUNITY and how important it is to see other people like you. Nick finding the courage to hold hands with Charlie after seeing an older gay couple. The rainbow ocean reaching out to Ben at the queer art exhibition. Coach Singh telling Nick about her wife and promising to protect him from homophobes on the rugby team. Nick watching Tara and Darcy kissing on the dance floor and realising he can be both happy and queer. Elle meeting other trans people at the art school and feeling at home.

Heartstopper constantly shows that surviving as a queer person is a group effort and it’s not only accurate, but comforting to queer youth. It’s a plot point that only a queer person could have the conscience to write.
