As someone in the community, I thought it was sweet and heartfelt. Seeing various forms of dating in their friends made it feel representative while still focusing on the one story they were telling.
It's not perfect, but few romcoms are.
And we should be able to have stories about us that are imperfect or aren't exactly how every person in the community lives. This is just a segment, as every movie is.
The LGBTQI people all up in arms and discrediting what they did here seem to mostly be upset that this is not how they live. It's not how I live, but it's how a lot of my friends live, it's how a lot in the community live, they're only telling one story between two people here, I think people are forgetting that.
Can't we just accept something for what it is and celebrate the good in it without finding something to be OUTRAGED about constantly? The culture we live in is exhausting.
The movie has me thinking over a week later. I enjoyed it and will watch it again.
