it's really interesting being a catholic who's okay entertaining fictional ideas because you wind up with some really interesting reads of certain things. for instance i got spammed a million ads for a gay webtoon and after i looked up the plot i found out that the main character is actually a girl who at birth was forced to live as a man for the sake of the kingdom. their entire life is a sacrifice to the greater good of the kingdom, down to the very reality that they are. the author's like "this character is nonbinary actually" and im over here like "this character is a gaslighting victim". Anyways. homosexuality is illegal in their kingdom but it's not homosexuality because the assigned prince at birth is actually just a straight girl who got raised as a boy. the read of this is slowly becoming "you cannot deny your own reality, as much as you might wish you could. something will always stay the same. you cannot ruin yourself into something new. no one else can either. you can be trained, but not destroyed." so yea
