A New Brian/Justin Fan!
Zomg, I can't believe this but I converted one of my friends, a friend that couldn't even stand the thought of two guys together, into a Brian and Justin fan. I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. I'm still a bit surprised she took to it so well. Also kind of proud she actually gave the show a shot. Especially since the only reason why we were watching it was because we were bored and there was nothing else to watch. I expected for her to ask me to put something else on after episode one where Justin walked into the loft and started thinking and visualizing all the times he and Brian had done it in the place, but she didn't. In fact we got through the whole thing.
When we finished she even asked if we could watch the next season and the other seasons as well. I must say that Justin's prettiness in Season 3 was one of the reasons why she loved it so much. She couldn't stop looking at him and kept on commenting on how pretty he looked. I happily concurred. Needless to say she also loved the chemistry between Gale and Randy, which of course was another drawing factor.
I'm really amused by all this and like I said proud that she even gave it a shot. I started reading fluffy fanfics about two guys with crushes on each other where all they ever did was kiss before I even started to look at other stuff. Like yaoi manga and anime. It was only after that did I finally watch Queer as Folk and was able to fully appreciate the show without feeling sqeamish about all the sex and nudity. So yeah, to go from being weirded out by the very thought of two guys kissing to watching Queer as Folk is a very big step for her. And now I have someone to talk to about one of my favorite shows. Hee.
