In episode 10, we finally reach the end of our heterosexuality suite, climaxing with the contemporary moment. We whet our critical palette with the bland offerings of Red White & Royal Blue, talk child-rearing under patriarchy, and theorize that the 'situationship' signifies parallel deterioration of heterosexual and hagplatonic relations alike. We finish with a discussion of what the hell a futurism even is.
