Frankly, as a gay man who was a teenager in the eighties, a LOT of the hand-wringing around Call Me By Your Name comes across as the same old homophobic shit. It wasn’t legal for queer teenagers to have gay sex with anyone at all, in most places in the US in the eighties.

In many places it wasn’t legal for anyone to have gay sex at all, and where it was, disparity in age-of-consent laws was used as a tool of state abuse especially against queer teens. I’m totally not interested in fandom that reproduces that abuse.
