Trinkets puts heavy focus on identity, featuring a trio of diverse female leads with several storylines centered around their various backgrounds and orientations. At times, personality and character flaws seem overshadowed by a desire to make each girl a symbol rather than a relatable teen. This comes at the expense of more classic character development, making the narrative feel agenda-driven to some viewers.

Traditional family dynamics are frequently depicted as problematic, with authority figures often absent, clueless, or antagonistic. Gender roles are thoroughly inverted, strong-willed girls drive the action, while most of the young men are painted as flawed or immature. There's a subtle undercurrent suggesting traditional norms are outdated or unhelpful.

Trinkets operates in a world where 'modern' values are never sincerely questioned. Dissenting or traditional perspectives are either marginalized or reduced to comedic foils. There is little-to-no representation of genuine worldview conflict; the show seems fully committed to its specific progressive lens.
