Now, this phenomenon hadn’t happened in quite some time. That Awkward Moment is one such rare specimen. But then there are some which check every tick box needed to make a cliched, hetero love story, and due to a myriad of reasons they end up taking a spot in that cold corner reserved for hetero romances. Some manage to slip past the cracks because they’ve enough cinematic flair to earn their position and not just hog the spotlight because they’re hetero romances e.g. I have always stayed away from heterosexual romances because there are too many of them and they peddle the notion that it’s “the normal”, thereby marginalising the LGBTQ+ community and their stories.
