Maddie ziegler is gay
Who Should Tell Queer Stories
A few weeks ago, my (straight [derogatory]) friend said something I thought was genuinely eye-opening.
I had asked them if they had watched “The Fallout” on HBO Max. Upon them responding “no,” I jokingly asked if it was because of the peck between Jenna Ortega and Maddie Ziegler’s characters. They said, “I don’t relate to gay content, so I don’t actively try it out.”
There are two things I found engaging about their statement.
First, I find myself relating to straight characters all the time. I love Fleabag from Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s “Fleabag,” but I love her because of how relatable she is as a character. Her struggles with self-worth and guilt are problems that we all face, and her sexuality is abundantly clear within her character’s frequent one-night stands. Even then, it could not mean less to me.
Second, I for one, do seek out queer content. But how is it that when I do find it, the relationship is plagued with tragedy and often ends in death? Why, when allowed to note almost any plot for a queer character, is happiness deemed unattainable?

This review contains mild spoilers for Fitting In.
Molly McGlynn’s Fitting In opens with a quote from Simone De Beauvoir and a quote from Diablo Cody — Jennifer’s Body to be strict. “Hell is a teenage girl,” the screen reads, and then the motion picture goes on to show us its truth.
