omg, i LOVE this read, thank you so much! i always feel like i've analyzed Gilmore girls to death and then someone always comes along with a terrific take that makes me reevaluate everything. this is phenomenal and i totally agree with you

Lorelai's behavior with Dean in season 1 and even afterward in season 3 is sooooo problematic. She wanted to be besties with him which was so gross. There are so many issues with them idek what to say lol

There are a lot of comments here calling Jess rapey but like... i don't think so? "what Rory wants" is so important and even the scene in Kyle's bedroom the dialogue doesn't really read as people who don't sort know where they stand. Jess was definitely acting out of line bc his school breakdown but earlier episodes were pretty strongly implying things
haha when I first watched this show I was a teenager and I was like "Lorelai is great! Rory is whatever!" but as an adult Lorelai's parenting horrifies me.

I don't want to make excuses for Jess in that scene because I think it was just unacceptable. But I do think Rory's interest and her desire for him (overall, not in this scene) is way more authentic than we ever saw with Dean or most of her other love interests. ASP has some weird takes on sexuality generally, but Rory is so...watched and monitored by the adults in her life, she doesn't get room to feel out what she likes. Like the whole idea that her first time is supposed to be perfect is really fucked up to project on her, Lorelai of all people should know that.
