Themes (Thumbs Up)
- Alex's narcissistic feminine side with a touch of OCDness without him being LGBT.
- Dwayne attempting to take on the role of father figure and/or acting like an uncle to the kids, but acting like a son to Lydia, and a brother to Penelope.
- Dwayne's obliviousness to cultural issues despite being unofficially adopted into a very Cuban family.
- Elena figuring out she likes girls.
- Elena figuring out more about the role regarding masculine and feminine roles, but moving into a masculine personality which has no problem with adding a feminine flare, like what her granny did with her quince outfit.
- Lydia having awesome abuela moments.
- Penelope representing how a woman can be strong, masculine, but still have feminine traits, and not be LGBT.
- Penelope's struggle with PTSD.
- Crossovers with any fandom I know where Elena deals with crushing a canon character from another series whether they reciprocate or not.
- Crossovers with Voltron: Legendary Defender where Lance is the grandson of Lydia, nephew of Penelope and the cousin of Elena and Alex
- OCs...
Pairings (Thumbs Up)
- Ben/Penelope – I liked this one because she found a guy who understood what it was like to have an LGBT family member, but to whom she would be fine with Elena being around. He's also a family man.
- Elena/OC
- Leslie/Lydia – I find them adorable, including the denial on Lydia's part.
Themes (Thumbs Down)
- Alex also being LGBT. I know there are people out there who claim that one out of five people are LGBT, but in reality only around 3 to 4% is. Alex's character is the type of character who people are to quick to label as LGBT. If he comes out in later seasons, my position may change on this one, but I prefer turning the stereotype on its head for this one.
Pairings (Thumbs Down)
- Dwayne paired up with guys. He's always seen with girls, and for playboy reasons. That, and he's not very bright.
- Dwayne paired up with Penelope. While this may change in later seasons, I actually like the idea of them having a brother relationship instead of a romantic one, as people think a girl can't be a friend with a guy.
- Elena paired with a male character. She's made her sexuality very clear.
- Lydia paired up with anyone but her husband and Dr. Leslie Berkowitz.
- Penelope paired with a female character. We've already got LGBT characters.
