I’m a cis man named Tom! Who knew!
Can you tell me something more about him? I only watched S1…
Alice is dating him in the second season.
Dani – who does or does not want to be held.
Yepppp
(Also? The Jenny erasure!!)
I got Angie.. Which is kinda related but, I’m not a teenager lolz..
I got Angie/Baby Pickle!
I’m Pippa. This feels respectable and good
I’m also a cis man named Tom!
I am…surprisingly ok with this!
Also I feel like I nailed all but one of the roommate options so feeling v good about self.
OVERALL A HIGHLY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE WAS HAD HERE
I TOO AM A CIS MAN NAMED TOM
I’m Sarah Finley part human part loveable pup. Nice nice
Toms all the way…I think. Yeah, let’s go with it. YAY Toms!
I am Tess! Solid result, though you probably won’t catch me in a dress these days. Probably. That Met gala silk brocade suit though.. 😍
Yessss I have been waiting for this quiz, and I’m so glad it’s written by the only person I trust!!
😊
I got Carrie! Which is accurate I think.
Will you be the Carrie to my Finley?
Sophie. And I do want to be true to myself. I was judging some of her choices last season, but I haven’t seen how she followed up.
I got Micah. I’m feelin’ good about it.
Me too!
A cis man named Tom?! Alright, I mean…I do like gum.
You’re Angie, the youngest and most emotionally mature person in the room!
Yeah, that could fit.
Yay, I got my number one pup Finley. I didn’t pick any of the obvious partying, hook up or substance options (I abuse myself in other ways) but still got my sweet lost soul… must be my strong affinity for soccer and Sophie (s1) lol
I got Gigi, I’m very happy about this!
your quizzes are so much fun that I do all of them, even when I have no idea of the subject matter. I absolutely adored doing it but now I have to watch GenQ to find out more about a cis man named Tom!
I was hoping to be Jordi but Pippa is a welcome pleasant surprise!
Proud to be a Micah. Mentally mulling over which friend I can have a soulmate experience speedrun with over the next two weeks.
I got Micah and suspect it is only due to a shared profession because Micah is simply too sweet to be me. I would also never be as bonkers as he is by professing my love to a woman who had rejected me violently *checks watch*… the literal last time we saw each other.
I’m Maribel. Does that mean the Micah’s out there are my natural love interests?
wait isn’t the cisman named Tom from the OG? He was Jodi’s ASL interpreter who knocked up a transman named Max? Does Jodi come back in S2? Are there two cismen named Tom, one per generation?
There are two. Tom is the only cisman name known to lesbian TV writers.
I’m Tess! No dress, but I’ll take it. :)
Why is Tasha not an option ? Sigh.
Thank youuuuu for making the movies question non-compulsory <3
I never do quizzes but god Riese I trust you so gave it a whirl. (The MET: Camp options were inspired.) Honored to have selected Sophie “I just want to be true to [my]self.”
I really am, Sophie. I’m….yeah, pretty much that.
I got Tess and barely know how to process the honor!!!
I got Gigi. Spot on!!!
I got Dani!!! ♥️♥️♥️
JORDI is a child…
I haven’t watched the new seasons and I got Finley.
For reasons unclear this feels like an insult?
I’ve got Gigi… and I’m happy about it… I think. The L-Word is emotionally confusing, y’all.
I’m Tess!!
I got Tess. 🥰 Though I think I’m more in love with her than want to be her I wouldn’t have wanted any other result.
OH my answer is TESS, and I feel so great . I love this answer and Tess is one of the best caractor I have ever liked before
