SAME.
Fun fact though. When I was at university (studying to become a bachelor of arts in media), we obviously had to take several script writing courses. During one course we had to read a guide book on the structure/narrative of a “typical Hollywood script” – and the heterosexual kiss/relationship was listed as one essential part of such a script. So nope, I don’t think we can get rid of that awful trope, probably ever. (Anyways I ended up writing a script with gay characters LOL)
At this point it’s just so boring/forced/awkward I don’t know how they can make a decent movie if they always insist on including content like that. (Some films force it so hard that you’re just sort of left there like, “wait, where did that come from, these two characters barely even talked to each other??”)
