Queer/lesbian woman here who has struggled with a lot of the same issues as you have!

IME Virginia does a good job of acknowledging whenever her writing is focused on situations that occur mostly in hetero couples & being inclusive generally when appropriate. Personally I tend to have that not-quite-belonging feeling when people are talking about heteronormative relationships and cultural pressure w/o acknowledging me/queerness, but I don’t when it’s explicitly recognized that it’s not universal, if that makes sense.
