At the moment, the word "gay" wasn't really excepted. Most people would gasp when they even heard the word. Troye Sivan, a hard working 17 year old finds himself falling for another man, also known as Connor Franta. "Why? It's wrong to be gay!" Is all that goes through Troye's head. I mean, It is 1853. Gay is a SIN. This is all new to Troye, yes he may have had feeling for boys before but this boy gave him the chills. Connor on the other hand, knew he was gay. We was totally out to his family and close friends but obviously not to the public, we would have been burned to death. That's just how they did it in that town. That's how they did it in 1853
