Annie and Bebe are cute together, I adore how Annie immediately stands up for Bebe and listens to her when she has thoughts and feelings. I didn't really like the cheerleading squad (except one, but they were a new squad member), I know they were still learning how to navigate their friendship with Bebe because of her identity, but the way they went about it struck a nerve. They isolated her from events or spoke for her to do things because she's the tran girl. It was rude and I didn't like it. And don't get me started on Jonah, a real creep. Annie and Bebe are the ones who made this bearable.
Graphic: Transphobia
Moderate: Toxic friendship and Sexual harassment
