Which is funny, because part of the reason people disliked Stranger Things was that they were implying the damsel in distress character was gay. By the time everyone else had girlfriends in season 3, he was completely neutered. They pushed hard for inclusion in every other category, including a lesbian, but the gay was relegated back to an NPC. It always seems to be the way, though. The moment lesbians get involved, especially white ones, gay men are disappeared.

For a show that paid homage to the 80s the reformed jock and nerdy girl romance made sense but now they had to subvert expectations and make her gay. I get what you are saying. He did seem disappeared but it’s clear that the show is following the modern day trend of pushing the women to the front. I don’t have Netflix anymore so I won’t be watching.

Never had it. So I will be watching, just not on Netflix.

I don't think it was subverting expectations, I think it was a joke on the jock. "Yeah, you're in the right position now, but you were a dickhead for a long time. So, fuck you still."
