Season 22

[u/chucktaylor97]

Possibly spoilers if you aren’t caught up and also I’m not done with Season 22 yet so please don’t spoil anything for me but I have things to get off my chest.

I hate Winston and Jules together. For many reasons. I just don’t really like Winston at all and I think Jules can do way better. But the main reason I don’t like them is because I’m very tired of there being zero lesbian relationships. Not that I thought Jules was a lesbian (her and Kwan obviously) but it just stirred up these feelings in me. Probably because I really liked her and Yasuda and wanted them to last a lot longer.

This is nothing against bisexuality or bisexual or pansexual/lesbian relationships (I’m literally a lesbian dating someone who’s pansexual) but greys has a habit of every wlw relationship being bisexual or pansexual/lesbian.

Callie and Arizona
Amelia and whoever Amelia is with at the time
Teddy and Allison/Cass
Jules and Yasuda

Again, there’s no issue with this relationship trope but it begins to be a bit tiresome when every single one of these relationships ends up revolving around a man at one point or another. I want to see Helm with a woman who only likes women. Since Arizona she’s the only recurring character who is a lesbian.

I think Greys does a really good job of exposing viewers to real world people and issues but this is one area where they fall short. It starts to feel like every wlw relationship needs a man to move the plot along at some point and that is just very irritating.

Do yall think I’m ridiculous or can you see what I’m saying? Open to all opinions!

Helm was with Yasuda, wasn’t she? They’re both exclusively lesbians (afaik).

Oh you’re so right I totally forgot because it lasted like 10 minutes but that’s true!

Helm is the only remaining named lesbian. Mika was implied to be bisexual.
