YMMV / Handsome Devil

• Alternate Character Interpretation: While Conor's sexuality is more than obvious, it's not so much on Ned's part. Some of his word choices tread the line between acknowledging him and Conor to have similarities when it comes to their social standing in the school (outcasts of different reasons) or plain out saying they're on the same team a.k.a hinting that he's also gay. He never denies the bullies accusing him of being gay without any explanation as to why he doesn't correct them but it probably is more of him thinking it's useless to do that. There's also a matter of Ned hanging a poster of two men kissing, something that the principle, Conor, and his mother see when they come to the dorm room for the first time, which Weasel later tears down when he and the other rugby team members visit his dorm room.
• Heartwarming Moments: Conor's team standing up to their homophobic coach and deciding one by one that they do want him in their team even after he comes out. Even more so when Wally, the first and most vocal player to back him up, gets to play in his actual position on the wing and scores the winning try in the match.
