Also not trying to pick at something excessively but to me that honestly makes it worse? "In one universe you can pick this wonderful, positive, idyllic and fulfilling relationship with someone of the same sex, and damn the world to hell; in this other universe you can pick a horrible, crushing, abusive relationship with someone of the other sex, but the world will be okay."
The lesbian relationship may be so much more wonderfully perfect - but if Patricia's choices and actions are causal, it's still the reason the world goes to hell, and that just makes that moreso. =\
Without the sexuality issues, that's already kind of . . . horrific to me as someone who has a problem with obsessive rumination on the idea that everything I do to make myself happy is evil, poisonous and making the world a worse place. Add in "oh by the way, it's an f/f relationship path that damns the world" and I'm not really comfortable with that subtext at all.
