Tommy Wynchester is a genderfluid person who dons disguises to help her family of misfits (the
Wynchesters) help people. Philippa is a 23 year old Bluestocking who has never experienced any sort of sexual attraction to anyone... until she meets the dashing Baron Vanderbean (surprise it's Tommy!)
I loved the hijinks in this and the relatively bananapants plot. I loved the exploration of gender identity and attraction and the absolutely lovely found family.
Ridley gave us some great intimate scenes with excellent consent. (Audio is narrated by Moira Quirk - highly recommended!!)
Graphic: Homophobia and Sexism
Moderate: Sexual content
