Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that wants to talk to you about your avoidant attachment style.

This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with Sarah Rotella and Adrianna DiLonardo of The Gay Women Channel (@gaywomenchannel) to talk about why the 1999 Julia Roberts romcom Runaway Bride Should’ve Been Gay

Picture it, you’re a small-town dyke who has had failed beard relationship after failed beard relationship, ultimately leaving all your beards at the altar. Now a big-city journalist has rolled into town and is weirdly intent on poking into all your past relationships and outing you. What’s a closeted dyke to do? Well, if you’re Maggie Carpenter (Julia Roberts), apparently the answer is to get down on one knee and propose to a gym teacher that you’ve known for all of 2 days. 

Even though this movie is intent on throwing Maggie at a carousel of men, she is so freaking gay the entire time. The very first moment that we see Maggie she is on a horse galloping full speed away from a man. She spends the entire movie alternating her outfits between all-flannel all the time and a wedding dress while hanging out in her tool shed-looking apartment. It’s honestly nonsensical that she has been passing as a straight woman for all this time. 

We know one thing for sure, Runaway Bride Should’ve Been Gay.

Pre-order Sarah and Adrianna’s new holiday lesbian romcom, Last ExMas, releasing on VOD December 3rd.
