“Those seven years, they do matter. The person you are at 17 and the person you are even at 16: totally different; and from 17 to 24 there’s a substantial difference. And I like that difference. You do need a relationship in which one has all the experience with life, and the other is just beginning to discover what life is.” – André Aciman, author of Call Me By Your Name (x)
Instead of watching call me by your name, which was explicitly written to romanticize a sexual relationship between a 17 year old and a 24 year old, how about you support these gay teen dramas instead.
