I have an extremely clear memory of my first experience with this feeling! We got digital cable when I was in 7th grade, I stayed up late all summer pawing through movie channels watching all sorts of shit. Stumbled onto Fucking Åmål and found myself completely overwhelmed by the entirely mundane and un-sexualized romantic depiction of two girls my age. Took me years to figure out exactly why it hit the way it did, shortly after I transitioned lol.
