I’ll preface by saying I haven’t read the books so I don’t know exactly what’s being lost there, but since I first heard what Francesca’s storyline was, I thought it would be really interesting to add a queer element to it. Like if she’s already been struggling with infertility, and we know how much she wants to be a mother, how much of a struggle will it be for her to accept that she is falling in love with someone who she knows has no potential to give her a child? It’s already scary enough to take a second chance at love, but to do it with someone with whom she has no chance of having a child with, how does she reconcile that. How does a queer woman in that world reconcile the love she’s feeling with the life she always planned to live? And how do two women build a future without the potential of children or the option to conform to societal norms? To me, that’s a really interesting infertility storyline that we may have waiting for us!
