Yes! That! There is *some* of that in the original Shakespeare, Romeo is much softer than most modern masculinities will accept. But it's less of a big deal on the original because different times. This version definitely elaborates on it though!

I was also thinking of Tybalt as well, about half of his issues are bullshit with the masculinity that's pressed on him (the other half is disability and how it's treated, and then there's at least one more half - he has a lot of issues).

And then there's Mercutio and how he passes off all his guy crushes (like on Romeo) as jokes and theatre - and that might also count?
