/opinion

I think it's a slight cliche in LGBTQ novels when the main character ends up kissing someone of the opposite sex/orientation, and then they question themselves but then they're like, no, actually, I'm still in love with (insert name here) or if I'm not then I am still attracted solely to boys/girls or whatever.
Just a thought.
