“As long as people don’t know about asexuality—hell, forget about the label, so long as they don’t know that saying no forever and for any reason and in any context is okay—sex education, sex therapy, and popular depictions of sex are incomplete and people don’t have the relevant information to fully consent. Sexual rights should not be assumed and self-determination must never end upon entering a relationship. You can give a no with zero caveats in each and every situation, full stop. You can say no if someone loves you and you love them back. You can say no for the rest of your life”

one of the most important things about heartstopper to me is that they have a huge focus on how enjoyable charlie and nick’s relationship is. so many queer stories focus on drama and tragedy and how hard it is to be in a queer relationship or how much a boy hates that he likes another boy. but here they make sure to show that nick and charlie enjoy each other a lot. they kiss a lot, they hug, they have fun hanging out together, and they always do it with huge smiles on their faces. not for one moment do they regret being together

I think one of the biggest fantasy appeals of Heartstopper is not just “having a cute teenage romance”, but more specifically having that romance with a guy who unconditionally supports your coming out journey, is there for you, and has a group of queer friends who are also there for you while you’re figuring your queerness out.

The drama from Nick’s POV isn’t so much “Charlie wants us to be out” as it is “I want to be out, but I don’t know how to start.”

between showing nick how to play the drums, helping him do homework, initiating both the first kiss AND the kiss in the rain, i feel like charlie isn’t given enough credit for being very confident and smooth without even realizing

i mean he got a popular rugby jock falling head over heels for him. if that’s not gay icon behavior then i don’t know what is

I just really want to talk about this moment.

Like many others, I've watched Heartstopper like 12 times since it's come out. I've found myself going back to this scene over and OVER again, not only for Kit and Joe's great acting, but for this look that Nick gives Charlie right after Charlie says, "I shouldn't have kissed you."

Charlie is apologizing because he thinks he forced himself on Nick, and Nick is about to break, thinking Charlie didn't actually want to kiss him. It's so GOOD. You can see the despair on Nick's face in that moment where he thinks Charlie doesn't want him.

The way Nick and Charlie look at each other is so cute🥺💖

[counting-stars-gayly]

The look on Nick’s face, during the drum scene, when he realizes that he’s been staring at Charlie’s lips and wants to kiss him is THE most adorable thing. Everyone look at it right now.

winona ryder's character in stranger things has never been wrong even once and every time the fucking gravity turns off or whatever she says "hey thats weird right" and everyone in a 10 mile radius is like "woah category five woman moment incoming"
