Mx. Luna Corbden<p>S18 of Grey’s Anatomy has a new nonbinary character! I am so in love with them. They’re a smart sexy researcher. AND, here’s the kicker: The show just started them on a flirtation arc. Not just a sexless token enby, but one capable of attracting romantic attention from a long-standing cishet character! This might be the first time I’ve seen this on a show. I was saying to the TV, “Please be flirting! YES! And she’s open to it!”</p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/TV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TV</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/GreysAnatomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GreysAnatomy</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/nonbinaryPositivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nonbinaryPositivity</span></a></p>
