It is impossible for me to not compare this to Girls Can Kiss Now, which was one of my favorite books from last year and a much better iteration of this book. Girls Can Kiss Now made me laugh out loud multiple times. The 2000's Made Me Gay got an occasional snort. It has a lot less media commentary than I expected; it reads much more like a general memoir. I'm young for the references, but she explains them (though very monotonously in a way that I'm sure people of her generation reading would dislike). She also doesn't really have an overall point or message to this collection (though it could possibly be "look how easy you youngin's have it these days", in which, yuck). Overall, I think if this book intrigues you, just read Girls Can Kiss Now instead.

(The author also gets multiple facts wrong: Hayley Kiyoko did not start her career out, Taylor Swift was born in Wyomissing and also did not come out as straight in Vogue.)
