When it comes to same-sex pairings, I'm far more used to subtle subtext -- the kind that's more subjective. I watched Gossip Girl for quite a while just because of the Serena/Blair shipping, for instance. Heh. Though they DID hook up in the books, so, hey. I also still kinda ship Ann/Leslie on Parks & Rec, though I know I'm supposed to be all over Leslie/Ben.

Probably has to do with family culture. We're good Irish Catholics but there were no overt displays of drunk or high

This is true. My dad's side of the family is less WASPy than my mom's side, which is funny because I think my dad would fit right in with the WASPy crowd when it comes to repressed emotions. Honestly though, it's not like it was what I'd call a Stressful Event, in the sense of anything super horrible happening or whatever. It was just a combination of things for me.
