Annoying things in lesbian media?

I’m writing an action-y movie with an f/f romance at the center, and I started thinking about all the lesbian movies I’ve watched, books I’ve read. I really like to hear takes from this community, and there has to be at least 3 or 4 women here that are attracted to women, surely.

I’m especially interested in how we feel about media where both women were already gay and dated women, media where only one of them did, and the other is also gay but never been with a woman, or the many where one is either closeted and dates men, or never even considered she could be gay and hasn’t dated anyone!

In the post Portrait post Favourite post Bottoms post Love Lies Bleeding era of Heat-Mid Guyvalry, what’s the vibe?

Great sci-fi books about/with aliens?

I’ve been working on some things with aliens and in having to think about and create my own for the first time, I’m realizing I have no idea where to start and it’s kind of overwhelming. I’ve read some Le Guin, I like Star Trek, I’ve played Mass Effect. But what is the great big or small, respected or forgotten alien stuff I should read? Fiction and Non-Fiction

I know I’m particularly eying the 70s. That decade seems to always get closest to my aesthetic interest across genre.
