Values Dissonance
Added DiffLines:
* ValuesDissonance: Megan says she doesn’t drink, but Graham goes to buy her one anyway. At the time, a popular way to get someone to loosen up. In later decades, ignoring or dismissing someone’s refusal of alcohol is more often seen as rude or toxic behaviour.

** The film is about how traumatizing and soul-crushing homophobia is, with the young gay and lesbian characters being forced to "become" straight and punished if they're "caught" being their true selves. Creator/CleaDuvall plays Graham here, and she gets a happy ending, but at the time, Duvall herself was in her early 20s and still ''deep'' in the closet, per her own words. Duvall wouldn't come out as a lesbian until 2016, when she was almost 40.

* HarsherInHindsight: When Nancy Bloomfield meets Megan, she tells her and her parents that they were lucky they "caught her" before she went to college, seeing liberal arts colleges as bad examples that would have only made her gayer. This is an opinion a lot of conservatives hold, seeing Universities and Colleges as liberal brainwashing apparatuses, an opinion that has only grown more and more prevalent in TheNewTens and TheNewTwenties.
