“In the first season, he was dealing with a lot of uncomfortable, internalized homophobia and coming into his own as a sexual person. He was hooking up with his straight roommate. He’s trying to stand up to these sort of blocks that he’s put on himself and he can’t quite get through. And I think showing that much sternum in a plunging blue suit jacket is kind of indicative of his growth as a sexual person.”

  1. The episode where he’s trying to be an instagay had me howling. I also feel like we all struggle with internalized homophobia at some point in our gay journey.
