Absolutely! This is such a good point. Like the group sex was meant to show how they can evade consequences? It didn’t feel like it was actually queer in it’s ethos, just trying to be “edgy”
I think I know why it didn’t ring true for me is because the primary reason for their queerness in the narrative is to display their power. To show they are so rich they can be queer without consequences, their group sex more as a signal to their debauchery than to anything else
Didn’t quite finish typing before sending this haha but ah well, the narrative also uses their display of threesomes and group sex as a signal to their debauchery I think, implicit to their power.* so it’s entertaining but maybe leaves the queer elements feeling slightly hollow
