User blog comment:Fedguy/Supergirl Fans: Opinions about Alex/@comment-26618197-20170408111908

I still like her, she's more of a sister to Winn. But I will admit her being gay came out of left field for me, it's fine but surprising. Also, her relationship with Maggie has felt a bit rushed. Rule of romance in life and story telling is that you don't want to rush it, in life because you run the risk of getting hurt...or worse. In story telling because the audience needs to feel invested in it. Sure they didn't go right into it but Alex was willing to go into it after a few episodes. Also their story feels like it's pushing other arcs out of the way. And it kinda feels like the writers did this to say, "Hey, we're progressive! Look, look progression!"
