I know the whole intent was to make this about discovering yourself while balancing the weight of the church and church expectations…. But for me, it felt a little heavy handed. The “it’s okay to be gay” at the end wasn’t really well balanced, so for me I wouldn’t EVER suggest this for a young adult. I’d honestly cater this to those that are gay that came from religious homes and are FULLY comfortable about who they are…. I feel like it takes a certain level of understanding and therapy based knowledge to actually make this one palatable.
