“Collaborator” is honestly too kind a word for Coco Chanel, aka Abwehr Agent F-7124 Codename “Westminster”, who was literally an undercover operative of the Nazi Party. The fact that she is still lauded as some girlboss heroine in 2020 is deranged.

Contrary to what the writers for prestige television on HBO tell you, being able to predict a twist or big reveal doesn't mean the writer messed up, it means they wanted that reveal to have build up and be justified in the logic of the story they are telling.

Should you EXPECT QUESTIONS if you are a cishet-presenting person writing about queer stuff? Of course. I always advise clients of that. But 'just come out' is a very 101-ass answer, esp. coming from ppl whose own disclosure of their queer ID isn't gonna change their lives much.
