You can see Robin is struggling so hard. She knows she's going to break Steve's heart, but she has to tell him the truth because she really loves him and knows he deserves honesty. And Steve handles the situation sooo brilliantly. This scene is so touching, sad and relieving at the same time. Masterpiece.
Keev Hardy i’ve been in the same situation robin was. having to break your best friends heart is hard. she portrayed the emotions perfectly.
@@skippingconsistently3851 Same, and yeah it just fucking hurts.
@@skippingconsistently3851 I know right ugh 😣 I love Robin so much and Steve their the best friends ever tbh ❤
Right. Masterpiece
Yes! I can imagine exactly what she’s thinking at every point
Years later and I will stand by the fact that Steve is the most well-written character in this show. His character progression is unrivaled
i went from hating him to adoring him by the end of s.3 - pretty incredible writing, i think!
yes but the character gets no wins ... from the ladiesmagnet degraded to a joke in costume... i would have wished hed get a girl.. or at least more respect from his surroundings. This scene was like one more punch in the stomach of this already unlucky chracter. Hes the most punished character in this series by far,, his downfall undeserved.
@@bigboulder I don't think this was any kind of gut punch for Steve. His crush is unrequited, sure, but he obtains a best friend which is in many ways what he needed as a character. It also directly shows character growth compared to how he was dealing with rejection in the first season. I would expect him to fully transition into a father/big brother figure in the fourth season. I suspect there might be a romantic subplot for him as well
@@bigboulder you don't need a romantic relationship to be happy.
@@jeebe393 a matter of opinion..but i would guess that most people would prefer to have a partner in life..and for steves character..thats definately his goal.
his “oh” was so soft 🥺
I KNOWWW 😭 a pivotal character development moment

Steve immediately roasting her taste in women after she came out just has major chaotic best friend energy. Iconic duo
Fr I love them sm
I love how instead of being digusted or upset he was rejected, he just went, "Really? You can do better than her." At least to me it shoes how much they mean to each other
@@minisarge2619 its a netflix show. off course hed be acceptive
@@l.v1473 Most people aren’t jerks and won’t ghost someone just because of their sexuality 😐
@@315._k7 today yeah, but this show isn’t set in modern day. This season is set in 1985, and it would be totally normal and accepted to ghost her and never talk to her again cause she’s gay. Do I think it’s right? No, of course not, but that’s the truth.
Robin: “I like girls.”
Steve: “Really?! Me too! We should keep hanging out!”
Derek Fisher well its now you douche
@Derek Fisher It's also not natural to wear glasses, dye hair, use the restroom anywhere but the ground, eat processed foods, get divorced, or even wear braces. But I guess we just pick and choose huh?
Lol
@Derek Fisher are you saying girls can't love girls? Your an @$$hole
Fun facts studies says being homosexual is pretty common in nature so it's pretty natural
I can practically taste Robin's relief when Steve starts teasing her for her taste in women. that was SO MUCH trust she gave him.
T K No, this show may take place in the 80s but it has a really modern hindsight applied to that time period.
@ yea
imagine coming out and your best friend instantly judges your taste in women
THE1NONLY1 I think by taste in women he didn’t mean the fact that she was gay, just making fun of Tammy
@@Pewds9 it's better than him freaking out, telling your parents, making fun of you, telling your school, beating you up, etc.
The way Steve reacts to her confession by making her laugh and being totally cool about it is the best thing ever. Character development y’all
Just imagine how season 1 Steve would've reacted to her coming out.
It just goes to show how much fighting monsters and becoming the official babysitter to a group of preteens can really alter your whole personality for the better!💖😊
Bro I’ll literally never be over his character development 😭
@@stinkyassclown4602 What's funnier is that Steve's development was an accident, since both he and Dustin's plotlines were going nowhere, they just made them cross paths with each other.
Ahal1 lol I started to watch the whole show again after the last episode and omg, it’s crazy how well this show represents character development. I love how at they’re selfish teens who then go through traumatic experiences that in, different ways, teach them that they need to be better people. It’s such and awesome show 🤣
I love how instead of Steve being like "WHAT, YOU'RE GAY?!?" he's just like "Oh Robin, we have to talk about your taste in women. Cuz you can do so much better."

But...
But Tammy Thompson’s a girl...
Yes, very good Steve. You’re doing great.
@@Ray-hk1zm Tbh, he did the greatest
@@mat_max A true icon.
This took place in 1985 so back then being gay or lesbian wasn't that easy to say
Acually alot of women say it like that when they're not interested or interested anymore
Her face when she knew she was going to have to break his heart and possibly lose him as a friend omg my heart
I know. Its almost like in that moment she wanted to be attracted to him so that she wouldn't lose him. Because she does love him...just not romantically. That actress is amazing. Her face conveys all those emotions.
She looked like she was having the worst period cramps of her life
John Hooper uhh i think not
dont worry
still friends
I’m so sad I read that the directors/writers wanted them to end up together but apparently they didn’t want that to happen..
The part where Steve is describing his crush and Robin immediately knew he was talking about her and the way she got frustrated and sad knowing that she'll break his heart is such an emotional scene 🥺
I thinks she's also afraid for herself that he'll end their friendship and tell other people what she said. I was around in the 80s and let me tell you that coming out as a Lesbian in a small Midwestern city would have been a tough journey.
its so amazing because you can tell she loves him and is taken aback by how sweetly he talks about her, but knowing she will never love him romantically
I love how they framed this scene, especially the first half. They're directly facing each other but the toilet partition provides a divide that lets them both express their emotions perfectly: Steve's rising sincerity and Robin's crestfallen despair. It was so bold and unexpected to *NOT* have them end up together (what a swerve) but geez do I love how it developed both of their character's even more.
Stop making this about Steve istg
@@lottegeldof4987 It's about both of them and Steve is the character we've know longer so his development as a person in this moment is just as surprising as Robin's bravery for opening up and making herself vulnerable during such an unsupportive decade. STOP TELLING PEOPLE HOW TO FEEL. Freaking gatekeepers, I swear...
Steve Harrington: mom, friend, ally.
We Stan.
YES. ✨👏🌈
I wish I had a friend like Steve
There’s no way he’s not bi

Steve had the best character development of all time. From douchebag popular jock who only cared about himself to being a single mum who accepts people for who they are.

@packgrog In the words of Jay, “Hetero Life-Mate.”
Robin: *Coming out as a lesbian*
Steve: Cool
Robin: Theres no problems?
Steve: Yeah, your taste.
I love Steves character. Homophobia was so bad in the '80s and Steve just shrugs it off and has no problem.
especially when you remember how Steve was in S1, his character development of going from homophobic prom king pretty boy dating the most perfect girl in school to bisexual mum of six with a crush on the metalhead outcast and whose best friend is a lesbian is one of the best in TV history

i HATE gnak. Homophobia was SUCH a big problem in the 8000 BCEs... homophobia is such an ABNORMAL, and backward practice... which means everyone pre-20th century was evil, stupid, and backward. YEP, that's right. US who have only lived for a century can declare that everyone before us (ho*mohpboic**xs) are evil backward and stupid.

@@cloudwinchester0903 he is not bisexual, I think...
@@serikim6700he was, he said bad things about Will and Jonathan
I love how when Steve realises Robin is gay, he just carries on talking with her instead of being upset she doesn't like him back. Instead of teasing her being gay, he teases her choice in women. And this is the same guy who made a homophobic slur in S1
he did? woah, definition of character developed
Best character development in the show
Would being upset be so bad though? It's perfectly natural and understandable to be upset if someone you're into doesn't like you back.
Agent Z46 yes, yes it would, you can’t expect them to naturally grow feelings for you and then getting mad at them is probably the douchiest (wow what a word) thing to do

1:32 Maya Hawke’s performance is so good. You can tell she appreciates the fact that Steve likes her, but it hurts her too because she realizes she has to tell him she’s gay.
Bro a girl is a gay? I-i dont understand
@@mugi8833 Gay is also used as an umbrella term for anyone liking the same gender as themselves. So, yes, it applies to girls as well. I hope this could clear up the confusion :)

music?
Agreed. 💯
Hue Manatee there's music..?
nikoru yes. It’s very subtle
The aliens need to see it.
Beautifully written and acted scene.
Maya Hawke is sensational, and Joe Keery, with a mix of tenderness and humour, perfectly portrays just how far Steve's character has come since the first season.
I wholeheartedly agree
Brent Crude lmao the likes are now 666😂
@HammerBann but... he didn't know she was gay then? that was before this scene.
@HammerBann If you do not understand that obsession is not a singular synonym for attraction then you have no business critiquing anyone else's writing.
The writers successfully misdirected you and you're blaming them for bad writing. That's it. End of story.
Yeah, he went to
"I'll have your daughter back by 9: 00."
to
"You better have my kids bacl by 9: 00."
Honestly, the way that Maya portrayed those difficult, difficult emotions was phenomenal and just so real. I love her
She looks just like her momma ❤️
Because her Mother is the wonderful Uma Thurman
You can even see the pain in her eyes. That's what I call AMAZING acting 👏🏻
Daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman... Acting is in her genes
Wrong.
as a lesbian, i relate to Robin so much in this scene. i could just feel the pain in her chest, knowing that she can’t possibly feel the same way and wishing they could’ve just stayed best friends. i wish i had a friend like steve, because most of the times this happened to me, they didn’t take it nearly as well. especially since steve was born in the 60’s, it’s amazing how kind and accepting he is in comparison to people i know who were born in the 2000’s
You're valid af, stay strong, you'll find a good friend soon!
I mean it is a show but i think in general someone from the 60s would take it way worse compared to someone from the 2000s
people can so beautiful and lovable until they think theres something wrong w you and they start acting insane to the point you don't know them anymore
@@rhysstanley7387 I think it depends on the person
Like, Steve seems like the kind of person who would really accept her and love her anyway, or at least, Steve from season 3-4 and maybe 2 (I don't think the Steve from season 1 would be this open and great)
It's a really rare thing probably between people of that eras, but he seems the exception
Like now there are people who are like this, so more open and who don't find anything wrong with it and people who find it a taboo or something terrible
(I hope there aren't grammar mistakes here, I'm not a native speaker so sorry in advance in case I made any)
@City Beautiful Adventures yeah that thing wasn't that great of him... Even though it was probably his way to say "stay safe"
A very bad way to say "stay safe" but still a way
Luckily they didn't kill him before... The new Steve is one of the best characters ever and I'm really happy they made him grow up like that
I love her performance in this, especially the end. Yeah, she's kidding around, but underneath she's so relieved that nothing has changed between her and her friend.
H&R Web don’t self advertise it’s against UA-cam’s terms of service
Her laughter to his jokes felt to me, on top of him being funny, like a catharsis for her, like she was so relieved she was accepted and they could still be besties, and possibly even relief beyond just Steve, as he may well be the first person in her life who knows. So the moment is doubly cathartic because for the first time in her life, she's unburdened from this very personal secret that probably made her feel afraid and lonely and self conscious.
This scene is everything, and to me, the best scene of the season, and a definite contender for best of the entire series. I'm so excited for Maya Hawke. The girl's gonna be huge - famous parents or not. Terrific performance.
@@jonathanguito1168 I've never even thought of the possibilty that he might be the first person she came out to, interesting thought, that this moment affects not just their friendship but her life from that moment forward.
She expresses so much with a few looks and laughs. I'm also excited to see her in more things from now on.
Bash, I’m sorry, but that’s just not how it works.
I think/hope they were joking - honestly Steve IS pretty enough to turn me straight (joking joking he is pretty though).
the absolute hurt you can see in robin's eyes when she realizes that steve likes her is so heartbreaking. you can tell that their friendship means so much to her and she's terrified that by rejecting him she'll ruin it. that's what makes this show and the characters so relatable and loved, because i think we all go through that at some point.
Also probably the fear that her new best friend wouldn't accept hat she's gay... :(
I mean so
Hat shes gay?
capricorny Amazing how you somehow focused all of the attention of Robyn and didn't care at all about how Steve felt.
capricorny are you lesbian?
I think people are forgetting just how bad homophobia was in the '80s, so imagine how terrifying this must be for Robin and how kind Steve is for understanding.
I mean they were ostracized fired and kicked out of homes and hospitals
And his opinion just so happened to align with 2020 views. That’s convenient.
@@jltplease Actually, not *everyone* was a total dick in the 80s like you are now
@@p0lyxena of course. That's why the word f((a))g was allowed in pg-13 movies for the 80s and 90s..
@@jltplease And...? Movies obviously don't reflect the views of all human beings. It's entirely possible and not "2020 views" that there were accepting people in the 80s
They’re so cute together, I’m convinced they are soulmates just not romantic, rather platonic soulmates
Media when male and female are hinting to romantic interest: haha no they're platonic, in fact the woman is gay and the guy is a soy drinking beta male so he continues his friendship with her
Media when male and male have a platonic friendship: they are GAY and will express it in a GAY shy timid way. And then we will introduce homophobic characters that end up becoming GAY and joining a monkeypox orgy with the two GAY men
Tldr; Hollywood sexualizes male platonic friendships and platonizes male-female relations.
Twin Flames is the proper term.
the way robin just desperately looks to steve with water in her eyes after he says “but she’s a girl” is heartbreaking, but the soft “oh” he says after he realizes is so kind and understanding. him being supportive of her just is another clarification that steve harrington is an angel among men
Madeline Voelkel but robin said she had crush on him. is she gay or not
@@sundarakarma9174 she was saying that to cover up the fact that she was a lesbian
@@sundarakarma9174 3:19
Sophia Borderon thank you
@@sundarakarma9174 it's cool
Steve’s reaction seems pretty spot on for the time this takes place. You can kinda tell that he either has never met a gay person or perhaps he at one point bullied one back when he was a douche. His reaction is a mix of surprise, confusion but also acceptance
Juan Jaramillo pretty sure he called Johnathon a “queer” in s1 so yh this is good character development
Not only that, but he makes fun of who she crushes on and not her,
It's like, he's still the Steve we love, he's just come further in a good way without changing completely
it also shows that when someone makes the argument of "Well, he was just a product of his time" to explain away homophobia or other bad stuff, it's just utter bullshit. Steve, who started out as a vapid '80s douchebag, nonetheless has a good heart, which is something that transcends the societal hang-ups of any era.
yeah!
@@lauristonbrewster9097 I can't be more disagree with you, you have described Steve perfectly! And I wanna give all my respect to Duffer brothers for all the work they put in stranger things! It's really a good thing for people who watch the show! :)
steve is probably one the most likable characters ever and it’s totally by accident since the writers initially planned to kill him off in the first season (so glad they didn’t)
Well, they make up for not killing him by beating the crap out of him every season.
@@chapacoka lol true
Poor Steve gets his ass handed to him literally every season. Like even when he wins a fight and we are so proud of him, something bigger comes along and just. Fucks. Him. Up. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@princesspoop6531 At the very least he seems to be getting better. He actually won a fight in season 3 against a trained solider.
i was neutral towards him at first and now he's probably my favorite character in the show. that's how you know the writing is good
To me the best part isn’t even that she came out and he’s cool with it.
It’s that he poured his heart out to her, basically confessing his love, and then she revealed that not only does she not feel that way about him; she never will - never CAN, even - and he not only accepts it; he immediately starts joking with her like he didn’t just get his heart stomped on (again).
Steve is the GOAT. People say Mike is the heart of the show but it's been Steve for a long time now.
@@EvilMagnitudeI think you’ll find that ONE PERSON thinks Mike is the heart and that’s because he has a crush on him lol
I hope that in season 4 we just get a bunch of Robin and Steve hanging out scenes like we did in season 3 because there friendship is amazing
I feel like if S4 is hypocritically 10 episodes, we're gonna see a bunch of scenes of them hanging out, watching movies, and obviously trying to score at the video store
@@mcnuggets2011 i can totally see them checking out girls at the video store all day long lol
i want steve giving unsolicited dating advice to robin and robin one-upping him on everything
I want to see competitions of who can pick up the most girls
@@anotherlee_ Honestly I want to see Robin being a total disaster gay and Steve aggressively being her wingman lmao
I love how they didn’t make her being gay her whole personality, and just part of it. They wrote it so well. I also love how they didn’t use the stereotype of the boy-girl friendship turning into romance
I agree, robin is extremely well written but man i just want my boi steve to be happy and find love!
Stranger Things is really good at breaking stereotypes and that's one of the reasons I like it. Like back in season 1 I thought Hopper was going to be one of those adults who doesn't listen to the kids at all and thinks they are just making up all the stuff so that the kids have no choice but to solve the mystery by themselves. Instead Hopper became one of the main characters who also tries his hardest to solve the mystery and that was definitely a good thing.
Stereotype? Relationships can only start one of two ways: boy and girl meet and immediately start dating or they become friends and then start dating. I think you mean rom-com trope.
the writers actually did plan to make robin and steve a couple, but the actors didn't feel it so they workshopped this scene and the producers ended up liking it so much that none of it was cut
Honestly as I was watching this the first time, I thought that this was going to be a love confession scene and I was just like... :/ this feels so cheesey and cliché?? But okay ig, they wouldn't be an awful pair. Soooo happy they did this instead, also was lowkey hilarious watching my parents get all uncomfortable bc of unexpected gay.
They are the textbook definition of platonic soulmates. I love them
platonic with a capital P!
yeah i had one of those with a gay man years ago. he and i still talk on occasion but it unfortunately did not end as well. things just became too awkward afterwards.
@@miaaaaa1001 the capital P stands for hard PAUSE
They are my favorite part of the show now. They have such great chemistry and are the perfect best friends.
@@bocolatebhipbookie I’m interested in this story. Could you explain more?

the look on robin's face as she realizes he's talking about her is tragically relatable :(
the guilt of a guy liking you when you’re a lesbian is unreal, but steve dealt with it so well and i’m glad they chose to redeem him :))
I felt bad for the both of them, but they handled it well. Robin knowing she was the attention of Steve’s affection then having to let him know how she truly felt and Steve not having the best of luck with girls the entire season and when he finally thinks he found the one then it’s revealed that she likes girls and he has no chance, but in the heat of the moment they joke as friends. It’s a truly emotional scene in my eyes for the both of them.
RIGHT?!?!??? I’ve never seen that so realistically portrayed on screen. Infact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it PERIOD! But I’ve been through it so many times. So many guys who are about to ask me out and I just have that “oh fuck” moment like “I’m about to crush this poor boy’s soul”
@@shaybrown7355 Yeah, I completely agree. There is sometimes where we just have to accept things and people for how they are, no matter how hard we fall for them. I’m excited to see how they continue Steve and Robin’s storyline, I just hope that both of them are able to get their happy endings for season 4. Who truly knows, maybe Robin and Steve can help each other get girlfriends? I’d love to see that honestly, or Steve coming to grapple with his feelings for Robin, but still being there for her as a best friend even though he feels more attached to her than just as a friend.
aww:(
I love how the music swells when Robin starts to realize that everything is ok and that she has been accepted
This was one of my favourite scenes, Steve's reaction made it
Mine too, the look on his face as he tries to process the information, and when he states "But Tammy Thompson's a girl", sees Robin's "Well, duh" expression, before he finally grasps what she's implying, really adds a moment of well needed hilarity to an otherwise serious situation!😅
@H&R Web no thx
yes you can tell she was scared of his reaction, but then she was really happy he accepted her for who she is.
Steve is the best character and he deserves happiness
I didn’t like this scene. I really wanted they ended up together. :(
I like them better as friends and that lgbt representation is being included in a positive way. But that’s my opinion.
Robin's emotions are joyfully explored in this scene, but it's worth saying that this is also a turning point for Steve. I think he really shows his maturity in this moment. Instead of being distraught by Robin's rejection, he digests it and lets it wash right over him. Their friendship outweighs any fleeting romantic disappointment. He embraces it for what it is, accepting and adapting like an emotionally intelligent adult. It's like he's really, finally left high school behind.
Being chased by psychic monsters and secret agents surely gives you perspective on what's important in life.
Preach! And what makes it even better is that the reason why he forced himself to get over the rejection so fast is because he could see in how much distress she was - scared that only he will stop being friends with her, but also that he could go into some sort of homophobic freakout and start insulting her, maybe even attack her, or that he could tell everyone and turn her into a total social outcast for the whole Hawkins. Sad as it is, this is a small american town in the 80's after all.
Violet Raven and they were super superrrr homophobic at the time the show was set so it would actually be normal for him to go on a whole rant.
That's one of the reasons Robin is an important character; she helped prove how much Steve has truly grown.
Elena S M CANONICO I think the same thing might happen to Will, it was hinted he was gay earlier in the season by Mike saying “It’s not my fault you don’t like girls.” But I’m not sure about thsi
@@barz111 It is possible.

thanks bro for the Amazing beautiful vid
at this point, i think they’re _best friends._
honestly tho
1:42 That look breaks my heart. It’s not the look of “Oh man, I need to reject this guy” it’s the look of “Oh no, I need to tell this guy something that might make him never like or respect me again.”
Both, and more. Kudos to Maya Hawke for some excellent acting here.
the most unrealistic thing in this whole series is how clean those bathrooms are.
Lol 😂
They’re not going to let the actors sit on a dirty floor
Mall bathrooms are usually pretty clean.
@@samuelwoods7832 but a fake dirty floor yes
@@samuelwoods7832 lmaoooo don't watch trainspotting then
I feel like people give a lot of credit to Steve for not being homophobic and obviously he deserves that credit, but he also deserves credit because he literally fell in love with Robin and could have been mad or sad for a longer time, or like telling her "okay I need some time to get over you" but he took the hit so well and never got angry at her for not being attracted to him or something
idk I felt like somebody should mention it
I wish Robin dies
I remember in season one, the time where he was at first to be thought of the worst character, he insulted Jonathan by saying he mistook him for a queer. Now he completely accepts his best friend as gay. Goddamn this is another reason to love Steve’s character development
You're not wrong though I think it's the best type of letdown. It's one thing for a crush to say they just aren't into men but it hits harder when they are into men but not into YOU. That being said it's still a beautiful scene and Itotally agree with your premise.
He was like that with Nancy too in a way, when he fully realized and accepted that she doesn't love him anymore. That little scene in s2 after Nancy and Jonathan slept together during their trip and when they met up with Steve again, he knew that things had changed. And instead of making Nancy feel bad about her kinda cheating on him (they hadn't officially broken up) he reassures her that "it's okay". And he looks and sounds like he absolutely means it. I respect that a lot about him, that he takes rejection in such an accepting way, even though it must hurt him, but he still cares about this person (Nancy and Robin) so much and does everything to make them not feel bad about it. I just really love Steve.
Yeah not just not being homophobic but also not having that toxic attitude after being rejected a lot of women are scared of. But I get it he wasn't interested in her until they were friends, he didn't go in to that relationship with that agenda of becoming her boyfriend and getting "friend zoned."
The fact that Robin knows Steve's talking about her when he starts describing his 'crush' and starts crying because she could never love Steve the way he did and doesnt want to break his heart
And the way she's relieved when Steve starts making fun of her choice in women

Indeed, I'm glad that they didn't have Steve and Robin hook up, as you might expect in stories like this. Instead, they are still able to maintain a strong friendship after their adventures. Yay for subverting expectations!😀 #scooptroopforlife

I’ll be honest, I haven’t watched a single episode of this show, but I find myself coming back to this video and watching it whenever I need to cry. As a lesbian, this is probably the most genuine coming out scene I have ever seen, it’s so goddamn beautiful
fr!! its so beautiful in its simplicity!! the subject matter is so huge but their friendship outshines any need for secrets and its so sweet!
It may well be the best scene in the entire series. I just adore this scene. I may not be queer personally, but several of my friend are, so I can empathize. I've also just struggled with any feeling of acceptance, so I can identify on that level as well. May we ALL wind up with friends as accepting as Steve in this scene.

Ayooooo! 👏🏻😂 They’re friendship is so sweet though! And Steve’s character development throughout this show is great. I can’t wait for season 4. 😌
Steve: *tries to confess his love*
Robin: well yes, but actually no
The way Robin cares about having to reject Steve romantically, the way Steve reacts when he is rejected but quickly realises Robin is vulnerable and and puts her at ease with a joke about her crush...this whole scene is prime. Two people becoming genuine best friends once they fully understood one another. Also, Steve's heart wasn't broken, it was not love, love is deeper and takes longer than a summer in an ice cream place. Steve really liked her and was romantically rejected. It can still hurt but if you've emotional intelligence you can process that pretty quickly. Steve processed that he wasn't rejected as a person, as a friend, just as a romantic partner. It's that emotional intelligence that allowed Steve to instantly realise the person he cares about is isolated and vulnerable by her admission to him and quickly put her at ease. She was also scared of losing him as a friend. The way the chords of the music slowly builds again the second he jokes about Tammy mirrors Robin's emotional state as it too slowly builds up again once she realises Steve accepted her for who she is. It's such a powerful scene.

That's how you reveal a gay character, by waiting till the show is released. Not going on the internet saying, "say hello to the first bona-fide openly gay character of the show!". Stranger Things did it right.
And not only that, but her being gay is actually meaningful and adds depth to the character and the story.
Great writing, if you ask me.
@Matheus E
You sure? I didn’t sense any real implications of her being a lesbian at all. Not like she should’ve worn a sign on her chest exclaiming her sexuality, but I honestly feel like the character would’ve remained relatively the same if she was straight. It’s not a bad thing that they added an admittedly “gay” character to the roster, but I feel that they should’ve done it in a way that would actually impact/explain the decisions she makes over the course of the show, not just so that she could turn down Steve.
Hopefully in the fourth season they’ll actually build upon her sexuality and properly implement it into her character, but I just feel like the way the “big reveal” happened could’ve been better.
@@swissidol8403 The way i see it, it changed her and the relationship she had with Steve.
For example, it shows the struggle she had with her sexuality possibly affecting her friendship with Steve, because he could judge her or being so heartbroken.
Sure, she didnt need to be gay for the Steve rejection thing to work, but i think it was a clever way to do it. I mean, Nancy already dumped Steve cause he wasnt her type, if the same happened to Robin, it would be kinda boring.
I also think it was meaningful to her, because it adds to her personality. The whole season i thought she liked to tease and mock Steve in a way of drawing his attention to her, kinda like "notice me" way. So it works like a semi plot twist, if you will.
And yeah, it wasnt explored a lot, but it didnt needed to be. Shes a secondary character on a pretty large roster, and sexuality is far from the main focus of the plot.
Matheus E remember that a certain character being gay doesn’t _have_ to be meaningful or add depth. They can just be. It’s called existing. Yet so many ppl rage when it happens
@@sia6045 Actually, it does have. Anything you do with a character, must have a purpose to them or the story. If it does not have, you're just wasting the audience time with filler information.

Person who is hating, don’t use them cause it only shows that you just hate for my opinion.😆😆🤣🤣
Honestly thooo
A lot of people think Steve’s reaction is bad because he starts ‘criticising’ her choice in women. As someone who is queer, if I came out and I got this reaction, I would feel so much relief. Steve isn’t criticising her. He knows she’s terrified, and he wants to reassure her that it’s okay, and he starts making fun of Tammy to show her that she deserves way better.
I just really love this scene because I hope my friends will have the same reaction when I come out, and I just feel comforted by this.
I’m not gay but I see your username is in a Eastern European language. Godspeed because I know it may be extra scary for you.
I mean it’s not just that it’s the fact he confessed and got rejected at the same time he found out so it’s understandable
I think it’s less that he want to show her that “she deserves better” and more that friends often make fun of each other, but trust each other enough to know they’re joking, so Steve starts poking a little fun at her taste in women in a friendly sort of way to let her know that the friendship is still there and that she doesn’t need to worry.
@@johncouch587 Eastern Europe is not Middle East.
@@nesaroth a lot of it has a much more conservative society than Western Europe. While you wouldn’t be killed or anything, I’d imagine being ostracized is a legitimate fear.

This is why I love Steve. His ''oh'' is not one of homophobia. It's an ''oh'' of ''I didn't know this at all, now I do, and I accept you.''' and then they just laugh about Robin's taste in women. We all need a best friend like Steve.
It was like an "Oh" of realization
Well I mean it’s also an “oh” of disappointment for himself, I mean he genuinely had a crush on Robin, dare I say he was starting to fall in love with her and that’s him realizing that was never an option on the table for him. Even in season 4 Steve says he would date Robin if she wasn’t gay.
But he realizes also that the way he feels about her shouldn’t have to ruin their friendship. He wants to be with her in some way and if it’s platonic then that’s okay too.
the accretion part happens later, but when you hear you don’t think about acception wtf? it’s normal, not superior, not less to him

This series is set in 1985. A time when being openly gay was extremely dangerous. And also a time when TV and movies started challenging the idea that being gay was somehow wrong.
Robin represents that. A wonderful, quirky, lovely girl that is struggling in her loneliness about being gay, about wanting someone to love...about being accepted.
And there is Steve, one of the biggest jerks from her school, turning out to be a damned good friend. And she is TERRIFIED that he will reject her friendship, that he may even attack her over being gay (which happened and still happens today)...she loves him AS A FRIEND...and she is scared.
And Steve simply accepts it. It takes a few seconds to understand it. She may be the first gay person he ever met. And he just...accepts it. When so many would not have, Steve make a Muppet joke and accepts her.
That is why in the end, Robin gets Steve a job. She will now defend that doofus until the day he dies. Steve protects the Party, but Robin protects Steve. Because he earned it.
