It’s been a while since I used this clip, but it really fits the WTFHIT factor:
During a flashback scene, it shows a younger Brodie telling a younger, still-boy-Ruthie, that he sees her for who she really is when she finally comes out. At the time, they were both gay boys.
When Ruthie transitions into a woman, she's with a woman who doesn't appear to be interested in transitioning from female to male. Which further complicates everything, as though this new generation is more interested in making up shit than being realistic about human relationships. (a gay boy who transitions after all, doesn't switch interests in gender. Ruthie should still be sexually attracted to guys as a woman) It's disconcerting, because it appears as though the community is attempting to take a turn into fantasy. I'm certain they probably want to label me as a Boomer who just doesn't get it.
