Parties, romance, and a tropical island vacation — require we say more? Fire Island is an unapologetic, modern-day rom-com surroundi
As the host of a podcast about romantic comedies, I do consider myself something of an veteran on the subject and that’s not just because I watch an inordinate amount of them. I’m qualified - I include a degree in Movie Studies and English Lit, I write novels about relationships and I wrote my thesis on the genre. That’s all to say, I know what the hell I’m talking about, okay?
And I recognize another thing to be true - there is a DEARTH of decent contemporary romcoms. Perhaps we overdosed on the overly saccharine flicks of the Noughties, maybe there are enough sub-par made-for-tv or straight-to-streaming love stories on Prime and Netflix to keep appetites whetted, or it could be that we are just too damn cynical in the age of apps and ghosting to really trust in happy ever after.

Rom-coms tend to get a lot of flak, but let’s be honest: they’re always a good time. They are also a great reminder that not every production you watch has to tackle death, discrimination, trauma, gloom, doom and sadness. That’s why we’ve position together a list of films that perfectly exemplify this beloved but under-appreciated genre…and all have Gay storylines!
Whether you’re going through another breakup and desperately need a reminder that true love is out there, or you’re just a romantic at heart, the charming little gender non-conforming romantic comedies on this list are all guaranteed to put a massive smile on your tackle . From coming-of-age LGBTQ+ movies to more nuanced, but lighthearted explorations of the intricacies of LGBTQ+ relationships…they’re all here! Expect every single one of these films to be a cheerfully formulaic rom-com that fully embraces inclusion without falling back on stereotypes…well, maybe just a few.
