* SlutShaming: Harper is cited over a dress code violation as her shorts are deemed too revealing. She feels this is blaming her for how her body's shaped with an implied judgment about her supposed promiscuity based on that. Tilly's dad wholeheartedly agrees and denounces this as double standards too as boys aren't treated that way for similar clothes. When other kids at school learn Harper is now having sex with Tilly, Liam says she's a slut as a result. The rumor mill soon makes it grow into Harper being with three guys, but it's only been Tilly (they were also both their first). Harper confronts Liam and tells chews him out about this. It doesn't stop him though, as Liam soon spreads another rumor about Harper having grabbed a boy's dick. Tilly starts to buy into this too, outraging Harper. She decries how her having sex with him makes her a slut, while Tilly gets inducted into the “cool boys club” for it. They break up as a result.

* SoapboxSadie: Harper is outspoken in supporting reproductive rights or opposing sexist {{double standard}}s toward women. This is treated positively, and Tilly's dad agrees, praising that Harper advocates such views while urging Tilly along with Adam (Harper's brother) to speak out as well. She later delivers a speech in class on how feminism needs to be more inclusive to women of color, with her shutting down one teacher's objection as another praises her for what she'd said.
* TheirFirstTime: Harper and Tilly decide to have sex together, the first time for both. They both make sure the other is ready, fully consenting and get protection beforehand. She also tells another girl in no uncertain terms a boy who had stuck his hand down her pants was wrong, shouldn't have assumed that she'd wanted it and should have been expelled by the school (he transferred at least). Later she decries double standards in regards to her being labeled a slut for having sex, while Tilly (her boyfriend) has been praised as a result.
