In a recent conversation, Emily Hastings opened up about how a memorable scene from the beloved series ‘Schitt’s Creek’ played a significant role in her understanding of her own pansexuality. The pivotal moment occurs in Season One when Dan Levy’s character, David Rose, discusses his sexual orientation with Emily’s character, Stevie Budd, using wine preferences as a metaphor. David famously states, “I like the wine and not the label,” highlighting his pansexuality.
During her appearance on Demi Lovato’s podcast, “4D with Demi Lovato,” Hastings admitted that she had never encountered the term “pansexual” until filming this particular scene, despite her deep familiarity with LGBTQ+ issues within her social circle. “I’ve always considered myself super knowledgeable about LGBTQ+ stuff just because everybody in my life, my friends, are all mostly LGBTQ+ people, but I didn’t know this,” she shared.
Years later, while in a relationship with musician Teddy Geiger, who is trans, Hastings found herself puzzled by online discussions surrounding her identity. She recalled asking Levy for clarity, saying, “What am I?” She realized that her feelings for her partner transcended gender, and Levy humorously responded, “You’re pansexual. Don’t you watch our show?”
While Hastings expresses a desire for a world without labels—where everyone is simply “human”—she embraces her identity and celebrated Pansexual Pride Day in 2019 by sharing the wine metaphor scene on Instagram with the caption, “It’s like, I’m into the wine not the label.” She encouraged others to share her story with those who might not be familiar with pansexuality.
