clarifying notes: on-screen text at 05:47 should read 'homoerotic' not 'homerotic', somehow I didn't notice this typo in all my many revisals of this video; on-screen translation of what Gang Seol says in Korean at 07:26 is what the official subtitles for the show said and what the gist of the line was, I'm not a Korean speaker so I can't vouch for its word-for-word accuracy.

*Asterisked characters are not explicitly described or heavily implied to be lesbians, but they are canon sapphics (or in Edie's case, possibly just implied/joked about, unclear if she's actually queer) who are neither confirmed nor implied to be bi, pan, or any other sexuality, and most of whom are popularly viewed as lesbians (or, as in Edie's case, the humour directly relates to lesbnianism regardless) so I thought it was okay to include them! Do lmk if you know any contrary info about their identities.
Out of the other characters, many (e.g. Elena, Abby, Tara) are explicitly described as lesbians on screen; some (e.g. Carmilla, Kit) are openly sapphic on screen and were confirmed as lesbians outside of the show by people involved); a few(e.g. Lou, Luce) describe themselves as gay, but this is shown/implied to mean lesbian, rather than an umbrella term; others (e.g. Bill, Juliette) are clearly shown to be sapphics who are not attracted to men, which widely and especially in pop culture is intended to portray a character as lesbian, so they fall under 'heavily implied'. And a few others are unconfirmed but widely headcanoned, as described above!
There are also several confirmed/implied bi+ characters (e.g. Waverly from Wynonna Earp, Luz from The Owl House, Amy from D.E.B.S.) featured in these scenes alongside lesbian characters, but the humour of the clip is always focused on or related to the lesbian character, and I am not describing these characters as lesbians or invalidating their identities! I would love to be organised enough to also make a bi humour video for bi week this year tho, lmk if you have any recommendations for characters to include!
I own nothing except the editing. Shows and characters are listed above and belong to their respective owners. The music is the official instrumental version of 'Just My Type' by Saint Motel.
