Is there a queer equivalent of the Bechdel Test yet, wherein we see how long a trans character can go without their entire narrative arc pivoting about their (horrific/abusive) coming out?
I vote we call it the Krem test. Krem is great. We need way, way more Krems.

It& #39;s like... yeah that was a dark period of my life. Which is why I don& #39;t talk about it much. Kinda brings the vibe down, you know?
"Oh my vagina? Well! Let me tell you how they split my dick like a banana" is a story you only get to tell loudly in a group of party friends ONCE.

Anywho this is a relatively normal evolution of media. Back in the 90& #39;s, when TV/movies finally decided Gays Are Allowed Now, we had a ton of media focused on gay folks in distress. Now we could be in films, but ONLY if our gayness was the crux of a lifetime of pain. Improvement?
Then you go a few more decades past that, and we& #39;re finally to Kipo, where a teen romance arc just gets interrupted with "oh! I& #39;m sorry, I never told you, I& #39;m gay!" and then they hug and shrug and that doesn& #39;t become His Entire Deep, Emotional Backstory. He& #39;s just gay. It& #39;s cool!
This thread is now a depository for Kipo gifs.
Kipo is so much better than I expected. It& #39;s one of my favorite cartoons/whatevers on Netflix right now.
