Canon suburban white girl theater kid experience in the 90s and early 00s was watching two kids at summer musical theater camp play "gay chicken" and take way too long to realize that these two boys were actually gay. Also you probably had a crush on at least one of them.

So if we can automatically register people for selective service with no ID issues, why can't we do the same with voting?
