it seems even queer people leave out women. Lesbian or non-binary representation is either minimized or in this case not mentioned at all. My wife got grief her whole life for being "butch". The world needs to wake up to the fact that LGBTQIA representation is not just gay men. Most LGBTQIA tv and movie representation is male.

We are here and we are queer, too.
