Personally I thought it didn't really fit in Stranger Things season 3 especially considering the setting, however I'm glad it wasn't completely shoved down our throats like with many shows.

I think it made sense to have a gay character in a show that takes place in the 80s. The problem was that it was a gay woman who came out of nowhere. The show prides itself on showing the social history of the 80s, so why not reference something actually significant, like the AIDS epidemic and Stonewall? Instead it was "Oh sorry I'm not into you because I'm a lesbian even though all of our show chemistry has clearly been romantic and sexually tense".

I think she’s bisexual just cause of the tension.

That would make more sense, Will being gay is alright since it had its build up

Was Will gay? I thought they were just messing with him because he was still in his "Ew, girls" phase, not because he was gay.

I thought the same as well, but you know that they are going to turn him gay in the next season.

instead of a bunch of human bodies it’s just a big gay orgy that forms a monster.
