    I choose to believe that even whilst drunk Darcy was subconsciously doing her signature gay meddling when she puked on Mr. Ajayi's bed and created the Only One Bed dilemma. She's playing 3D chess with all the queers on this show.

    Thank you for that bit about teens not always being ready for more than kissing. It’s one of the most annoying topics around season 2 recently, everyone talking about how it’s “unrealistic” for them to not be ready for that. It’s one of the things I hated most about the “drag queens react” video Netflix posted to CZcams. They just would not shut up about it.

      I suspect that people who have had an early sexual debut assume they are average. But the average age is 17 in the US, and at age 18 only 50% of teens has had sex. A 15 year old and 16 year old are entirely typical if they're not ready yet.

      I totally feel you! I wasn't really ready to do more than kissing when I eventually got a boyfriend, since I wanted to go slow and pace myself. I wanted to get to know them more before we did anything more serious, but every guy I dated seemed to want to blitz through every base, and when I wasn't putting out they quickly lost interest. It was very disheartening at the time, because I felt like there was something wrong with me for not being as obsessed about the sexual aspect of a relationship.

      i think a lot of people seem to forget that Alice is aroace so of course their experiences are gonna influence how they write the story. and if she wasn't, it would still be /fine/ to not focus on that aspect immediately since there are a decent amount of people that feel the same way

      I love how accurate to the book all the characters are. Including Joe’s Charlie because Charlie is both sarcastic, all three Spring siblings are, but is also described repeatedly as the kindest boy. Nick Nelson is the nicest but Charlie is the kindest. And both Tori and Nick recognize that about him.

    My favorite part of this episode is the editing during the part of the truth or dare scene when Nick says he knows who it was and looks to Charlie before grabbing his hand and telling everyone that it was him and that they're dating. It's obviously a really sweet moment between Nick and Charlie but what gets me emotional is that they cut to each of their friends who know and the looks on their faces are so warm and supportive because they realize what's happening and what a big deal it is for Nick and Charlie. It makes the scene that much more tender.

  • @tueffifee4490
    @tueffifee4490 Před 10 měsíci +29

    I didn’t take the scene round 08:00 min to as Nick being nervous about intimacy but rather him teasing Charlie. I think in the comics he actually says something along the lines of “it’s so fun teasing you” when Charlie jokes that he hates him.

    • @ben-andyhein7497
      @ben-andyhein7497 Před 10 měsíci +4

      And it is part of Joe and Kit's chemistry that the teasing happens in real life too. Joe "takes the Mick" out of Kit a lot when they do interviews. I think it's because Kit is a more experienced actor and he comes at it all very seriously. And Joe, well, Joe is a way happier person than Charlie. More confident, way less damaged. Nick's love language is physical touch. Even before they got together, Nick was always touching Charlie, even in rugby practice and in the locker room. He needs to be physically connected to the people he cares about. It's a way that it is made very clear that he doesn't care about David or his dad. Maybe he wanted to, but he didn't get that from them and he did from his mom and now Charlie. That's why the sparks flew when he touched Charlie when Charlie wasn't awake. Nick realized how much he WANTED to touch Charlie. And yet, he's still figuring it out, only 3 - 3.5 months into this, probably his first, significant relationship.

    Idk if Id say it's the acting of kissing that improved but more that it just follows how more and more comfortable Nick and Charlie are with each other. Obviously thr actors being more comfortable with each other helps but I think the evolution fits the story
    There's been (since season 1 actually) quite a few people calling the show antisex or cathering to conservative and honestly it's absolute pure bullshit. If it was, they wouldnt even mention it. But what it does is finally showing teens that you are allowed to take your time, that you can want it but not be ready at the same time. This season has done a great job at introducing the subject (more than once actually). "Teen medias" have done a lot of damage with its protrayal of teens' sexuality, with making 30yo looking pass as teens and having them have a very sexy and active sex life, acting like every 17 yo is sexually active which is absolutely false. And yet Heartstopper is the one being called unrealistic, because a 15 yo and 16 yo who have been dating for like 3 months arent ready. Yeah, nope
    It does a great job as usual showing communication and bounderies.
    And for the sexy time, for now, we have the teachers 😏

      THANK YOU! I've been so frustrated with people saying this show is unrealistic or puritanical because they're not having sex. Charlie JUST TURNED 15 like 2 months ago and this is the first real relationship either of them have had. (Kissing Ben doesn't count as a relationship imo.) It makes sense to me that they wouldn't be ready for more. When I was their age I wasn't ready. My experience is just as valid as someone's who did start having sex at that age.

      What bothers me about a lot of those critiques is they seem
      to be implicitly saying any teenage boy who isn’t immediately comfortable with sex is abnormal somehow. Or that Charlie, someone who has experienced sexual assault, being so careful about consent and checking in when Nick seems hesitant is far-fetched or silly. I don’t think that is a sex positive or helpful message to send young people.
      As anyone who reads the webcomic knows, Nick and Charlie will explore their sexual relationship in their own time, without shame or pressure.

    I have noticed with Nick at times he really loves kissing Charlie, but when it does get to become more intimate, and when it could lead to something more, he pulls back. Nick of course has gone through a massive journey. We sometimes forget, that in season two, we are still early on in their relationship. We see this with Nick at the end of this episode, when his eyes show fear when he thinks Charlie wants to go a bit further than kissing. He is still starting off on this path, no need to rush.

      We're literally in maybe late June, early July? Charlie and Nick meet on the 4th of January and kiss on the 20th of March. Nick's been "bisexual, actually" for 3 - 3.5 months! He knows he's in love with Charlie, but it is pretty clear that other than his kiss with Tara when they were 13, he's NOT even had a girlfriend. So he also had a bit of a later development.

She wants to portray a more family friendly approach. It does happen with Nick and Charlie, it's in the books, they do become more intimate together.

    I love what Mr. Farouk says about missing out on "beautiful gay experiences" because it's not just people who discover their sexuality/identity late that miss out on things. I think all LBGTQ+ people miss part of their youth in some way or another. We all have things we would like to have done as kids/teens but couldn't either out of fear or because someone wouldn't let us. Be it just kissing a boy/girl, playing with dolls, wearing certain clothes, dancing a certain way or even just speaking a certain way. We all had at least a bit of our youth stolen from us and that's why this show is so popular outside its intended target audience and makes us older queer folk so emotional.

Because a lot of people that critique the show say they think it's "unrealistic" that there's no s*x in the show and i never understood that criticism really. Charlie just turned 15 some months ago. also, why can't we have one show with queer kids that doesn't immediately dive into this topic? just to show the experience of lgbtq+ kids who waited a little for those experiences (or haven't had them yet).

    • @RoxaneJ14

      Completely agree, it can be very intimidating and isn't likely to go too well if they don't both truly want it, exactly what Charlie said "I'll only want to when you will want to as well"
      Also I dont remember who but I saw a youtuber remind that the author is asexual and that her stories are less centered around sex witch allows the storyline to explore some themes in a deeper way. Plus we have so much of that kind of content already, we don't necessarily need more, while we absolutely need to see deep relationships, nuance, emotionnal intimacy etc. and there is very little of that in mainstream queer entertainment

    The great thing you learn in this episode is that despite Ben being so much more horrible and Harry coming around to regretting who he is in the past, is that Charlie and Nick have done such a great job of protecting Ben's secret despite his not deserving it, that he's still invited to things and included. He's still known as a popular A student. But, Harry, his sins are public and so more people just see him as an entitled jerk and have no trouble holding him to account for who he was in the past.

  • @AntonioTC416
    @AntonioTC416 Před 10 měsíci +3

    I love the banter between you too.
    I wanted to comment about Ben. He’s one of those characters that some people are sympathetic to and feel sorry for him, others just hate him. I dated a “Ben”, so my opinion on him is very biased. I wanted to feel sorry for Ben because he is struggling with his identity. He hates himself and the environments he’s in (home, friends, family) might not be accepting. However, when he is faced with a choice, he chooses to feed that “dark” side. From the beginning of this season, he’s been a master of manipulation. Everything he has been saying to Nick is with the purpose to plant the seed of doubt and to make Nick feel, he is no better than him (Ben). Imogen was just another cover for him.
    In season one, Charlie and Ben interacted a few times and we knew how toxic he was and if we look carefully, there is more. We can see Charlie’s body language, the way he looks down, he makes himself small, his voice changes, every time Ben is nearby. He blames himself for everything even when it makes no sense that he would be of fault. Ben said to Charlie a few times, “no one would want you”. In the real world an abuser says that everyday and continuously to their victim, I speak from experience. And in this episode, he reinforces, “I don’t even know him”. What Charlie heard, “you are nothing”. In this season, I see Charlie’s body language is the same, when near to Ben or even when his name is mentioned.
    I think the mental abuse scars are deep. I see how Charlie desperately agrees with Nick on everything. “If you never what to do it, me too”. We are focused so much on protecting Nick and for him to come out on his own time and terms (which is the correct thing). But we are missing how that might be affecting Charlie. The guy who was made invisible, used, and mentally abused in his last “relationship”. Remember, Charlie keeps everything internally and he punishes himself later - eating disorder.

    • @elisabethbauman6190
      @elisabethbauman6190 Před 10 měsíci +1

      Absolutely! Ben did such incredible damage to Charlie, and Joe is talented at portraying its lingering effect. People are proud of the way Charlie stood up to Ben in Season 1, Ep 3, when Charlie “pushed Ben into a wall” at Harry’s party, and I am, too. What people miss, though, is Charlie acts like an assault victim in protection mode. He reflexively pushes Ben away in an instinctive gesture that betrays the depth of the trauma he carries from the abuse. Joe does a great job of nonverbally conveying that legacy of abuse all throughout the show, and I can clearly see how Ben’s proximity in Paris intensifies his mental health spiral. The comics didn’t explore nearly as many facets of the abuse victim experience, but I’m grateful the show did for those who need to see it. It’s heartbreaking to watch, but still important.

      I think they are going to give him a redemption arc in S3, but he's really gonna have to do the work and not just say "I'm sorry I was in pain" and hope that all is forgotten.
      I believe that people can change and that pain can make them do terrible things they don't really mean, but that is no excuse to treat someone like crap. And if you want to come back from that you have to face some harsh truths and take a good hard look at yourself and then do better.
      And even then, if you truly have changed (I know Ben hasn't, at least yet), you're still never entitled to someone's forgiveness
      Anyway, I'm glad you got out of that relationship and you are still allowed to hate that part of your past no matter if they're "not a bad person anymore"

      Which is ridiculous. Like, even at 18, only 50% of US teens has had a sexual experience. At 15 and 16 Charlie and Nick are entirely typical. There is this pervasive idea that all teens are always getting it on, but the average age for a sexual debut is 17 in the US. In the UK the ages are slightly lower, but not by much, from what I could tell there is a difference of a few months. Where I live, in the Netherlands the ages are slightly higher, about a year. So, while some teens are certainly sexually active, at age 15 and 16 most definitely aren't.

Yeah, probably, but that doesn't mean they're ready to have sex and it's really important to show this. Oftentimes teenagers (gay and straight) are pressured into it before they're emotionally ready, so the fact that Charlie and Nick are having this conversation is very important! Not everyone's experience will be the same.

      For relative comparison: in the lead up to the sex scene in Red, White and Royal Blue, it's obvious that both Alex and Henry have had sex, and even some kind of sex with each other [I'm guessing bj's because Alex is a mouthful]. And both have had at least somebody else and since Alex is Bi in the film [and not so much in the novel] and it is very new to him, he gets all sorta concerned that he doesn't know what to do when "making love" is on the docket in Paris. But A and H are in their mid-20's. Alex is in Grad School [in the US, at least 22+ most likely] and Henry is at least the same age or a bit older. Even royals don't start doing international appearances until they've gone to Uni and/or done military service and so the Melbourne Climate Conference [3 years in the past] means H is probably at least 25 or so. For reference, the actor is 28 and Alex is played by a 31 year old. Joe and Kit are both 18 and playing 15 and 16 year olds respectively.

    The way Charlie had Nick's back with them both correcting people that he is bi! And the support and respect the room gave him was so beautiful to see ❤
    Also the consent talk 👌 not something I ever had properly in relationships until the relationship I'm in now and seeing that healthy communication represented I just wish I'd have had this when I was growing up to help me start these conversations or recognise that the negativity or absence of them wasn't worth my time and energy!
