I didn’t know that the love languages thing was homophobic, just picked it up from people talking about it—and ironically most of the couples I’ve applied it to were gay or lesbian, so. I hope that ticks him right off, but also I’m not sure I should use it in the future. /Reads about it Yeeeeaah, okay. And sexist too. And he’s Christian...ah, he’s one of those types of Christian therapists. Got it. And it’s not that the idea is homophobic, per se, just the guy, but even so. As used in pop culture, it’s a useful framework to think about how to write pairings. As written, it sucks. I’ve been getting better, though, so I might not need to use it for brainstorming, so that’s good.
