Yesterday Showtime released a video of The Real L Word girls’ coming out stories. This is possibly the entire cast at their most loveable / relatable / “real.”

This video came out last week, and it’s about “misconceptions” people have about lesbians. Scarlett and Vivianne are both in it, so it seems really fancy:

Sigh. A pretty good looking cast you might say…
They didn’t show all the coming out stories. :| Bummer.
I liked hearing the different ages they all came out, it’s always interesting to hear about when people figured it out.
Oh my god you guys. The part where Kelsey says “I like the way I am” and then smiles? I MELTED. TOO CUTE, CAN’T HELP IT.
Also, who doesn’t love coming out stories? I never get tired of hearing them!
ME TOO SHE’S SO FRIGGIN’ ADORABLE.
TEAM KELSEY 4EVA

I want Kelsey and Alyssa to get their own show
if you google image kelsey chavarria theres pictures of her with blonde hair/playing soccer (and basketball)… i would have never taken her as the sporty type..then i lold
allie….is there a reason ifc wasn’t in the coming out vid???
You guys…somebody made this: http://fyeahkelseychavarria.tumblr.com/
They all seem so cute in this. Kinda makes me sad that the show itself portrays most of the characters in such an unflattering light.
*”characters”
Alyssa and Scarlett! Also, Alyssa’s adorable laugh! Damn this show could have been so much better had it *wanted* to.
So true…
Such a wasted opportunity. Dammit IFC!
Scarlett is so pretty I can’t even.
I don’t care about the contrived, spliced and diced drama featured on the actual show. THESE are the kinds of stories I’m interested in hearing about.
Also, I’m not even gay, but I would totally do Scarlett in a heartbeat. Just sayin’.
I vote Scarlett gets her own show were one camera follows her around and we just get to watch her interact with people. I’d be hooked.
They should’ve just filmed this and called it quits.
This made me LOL. :)
Seriously. They should have made these segments an hour long and canned the…whatever TRLW is.
I have a crush on Alyssa.
distracting music
weird choice
this totally would make for a more interesting show
Scarlett had more camera time in these videos than in the entire second season. That, my friends, is a travesty.
Like.
That was adorable!!! Coming out stories are my favorite!!!!!!!!
the video does not play at all? =(
