“The L Word: Generation Q” Review: Something Old, Something New, as Much Queer Sex as You Remember

I loved Generation Q. I don’t know why I’m so nervous to say that out loud? I suppose because it’s The L Word. And that means there’s so much on the line for so many of us, but damnit — I really did love it.

“Frozen 2” Review: Elsa Gets Mommy Issues Instead of a Girlfriend

If Disney wasn’t ready to explicitly represent a fifth of its young audience, they could’ve at least given Elsa a gal pal. I don’t need to see Elsa make out with the mysterious voice calling her to the next chapter of queer life, but lord did it have to be her mother?
