moonchild30:“The strangest thing I’ve noticed is that there are a lot of straight women who are fans of our relationship. I was sitting at a bar and two women approached me saying they were huge fans of the show. I said, “Can I ask you a question? I’ve noticed that a lot of straight women are really into Connor and Oliver’s relationship. Can you illuminate me as to why?” They said that a lot of times, when women are portrayed in a relationship with a man, there’s a disparity in intelligence, they aren’t written as smartly and there’s an inequality there. It seems, that with these two guys, there’s an equality in their relationship and that’s something they want to have a mirror for. They’re tired of the damsel in distress stereotype and aren’t interested in watching that anymore.“ - Conrad Ricamora -- source link
