What’s poppin’ LGBTs! Happy “we should totally stab Caesar day!” to all who celebrate, but most importantly happy 12 year anniversary to Kurt and Blaine 😌.

Back due to popular demand (jk?): more thesis talk! As promised, I discussed with my thesis supervisor whether or not I can share my thesis and the answer is yes! I, of course, didn’t mention to her that I am currently sharing my thesis through snippets on my fanfiction Tumblr blog, but alas, wat niet weet wat niet deert. But once I have the finished version (hopefully end June, for pride month, how appropriate!) I can send it to people if I want to. It will still be in Dutch but again ask me in 4 months what to do for my international audience (so weird to say about a thesis).

But yeah to celebrate the news 🥳, have some more of the thesis, aka my WIP for the next couple of months. On Sunday we talked about possible reasons why there are more queer men than women in media (I also added a third reason: Bury Your Gays). I described how heteroflexibility complicates what constitutes as queer representation, since women who have relations with other women aren’t always portrayed as queer, but there’s also a flip side to this:

In Russo's (2014) article on queer female fandom, a distinction is also made between subtext and maintext. The subtext consists of homoerotic elements and the discourse surrounding it. Maintext is the explicit queer representation. The boundary between subtext and main text is not always clear (Russo, 2014). Queer female fandom consists largely of queer women and these queer interpretations stem from a combination of personal and political wishes (Russo, 2014, 2017). This makes the questions surrounding the representation of queer women more complex. Heteroflexibility ensures that not all women who enter into relationships with other women are queer (Annati & Ramsey, 2022; DeCeuninck & Dhoest, 2016; Diamond, 2005; Jackson & Gilbertson, 2009), but on the other hand, queer subtext ensures that that “straight” women are perceived as queer and sometimes fans are more enthusiastic about those characters than explicit representation (Ng & Russo, 2017). Often these "straight" women are also seen as queer representation (McNicholas Smith, 2020a). This shows that queer representation is more complex than previously thought. 

(Dutch under the cut, together with the tags, for the few Dutchies who might prefer to read it in Dutch, since academics can be a bitch.)

Yes, this is technically about Faberry. Literally every paper on this phenomenon I’ve read mentions Faberry and a ship from Xena: Warrior Princess. It’s an interesting thing, because is a character like Quinn Fabray queer? (Fun fact, she also falls underneath the whole heteroflexibility mess after I Do.) I mean, I once had to write a paper on representation in Glee and it hurt me to call her straight (@blurglesmurfklaine remember the “Quinn is straight. Fans disagreed.” line?), but on the other hand it is questionable when straight characters sometimes get more love and recognition than actual on-screen canon representation. I also love pissing off straight people by claiming that Zuko is gay, but Korra is right there, amirite? I didn’t want to add too much text here in this post, but I did give a historical reasoning behind this phenomenon. This is just another interesting thing in a list of interesting things.

ABC Tag

A - age: 21

B - biggest fear: i’m too tired to dwell on the really deep emotional things, so I’m going to say like diseased spongy skin

C - current time: 21:53

D - drink you last had: tea! Yorkshire English Breakfast, black, no sugar.

E - every day starts with: see d.)


F - favourite song: !!!!!!!!! wow um ???? SO MANY. Landslide, Fleetwood Mac. Absolutely any Beatles song, but particularly A Day In the Life. You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go by Bob Dylan (anything from Blood on the Tracks, also Mr Tambourine Man and Like A Rolling Stone). Both Sides Now, Joni Mitchell. Tops or You Can’t Always Get What You Want by the Stones, A Whiter Shade of Pale, Kathy’s Song by S&G ....more recently, probably Goodbye England (Covered In Snow) or Worship Me by Laura Marling. In trad, it’s a toss-up between Lakes of Ponchartrain by Christie Moore and Wrong Foot Forward by Flook. Classical, probably either Liszt’s Liebestraume, Valse Melancolique by Darzins, Debussy’s First Arabesque, Piano Concerto No.2 in C Minor by Rachmaninov, or basically everything Chopin wrote.  

Recently, I’m a bit obsessed with The Notorious BIG ft. Ja Rule- Old Thing Back, but that was our tune for the long sunny roads in Iceland

G - ghosts, are they real?: there are days when I doubt the existence of everything, but these are unhinged days where logic doesn’t apply. In reality, while I don’t think humans are capable of comprehending every part of the universe, I think the evidence is on the side of the no-ghost camp. Spirits, however, I believe in...even if only in the mind of the observer. For more details hmu, I could discuss such esoterica til the cows come home

S - song last sang: aw Christ i have to admit it was J Biebs and Despacito

T - time you woke up: 4.15am, to get a flight from Reykjavik

U - underwear colour: black as my heart

V - vacation destination: AH! Florence, Venice, Rome; Vienna and Prague; St Petersburg. On the other hand, Hawaii and back to San Fran. Also, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, Marrakech, Agra, so manyyyyy

W - worst habit: gnawing at my nails, also probably procrastination and generally allowing my horrendous natural personality to overwhelm me

X - x rays you’ve had: teeth, ankle

Y - your favourite foods: I don’t really eat junk, but sweet-wise I love blueberry muffins, ice cream with a floral flavour, fruitcakes, scones... I just literally adore everything my mum has ever cooked or baked (I worship her skills). Almonds, bananas, avocados....fresh fish......lovely tomato-based sauces. Parsnips. Ham bone soup. Muesli and Greek yoghurt. Anything that could even loosely be considered Mediterranean. 

Z - Zodiac sign: Virgo

(Kicking it off early, because today is Speak Your Language Day and I highly encourage you guys to do today’s post in your native language. If your native language is English, then the mod of Speak Your Language Day encourages you to use your second language or a language you’re learning!)

Goedemorgen, mijn kerels. (Ik probeer de Nederlandse versie van “my dudes” te vinden. Het is dit, of “mijn maten”, en dan vind ik “mijn kerels” leuker). De alliteratie werkt ook in het Nederlands, want het is Zes Zinnen Zondag.

En ik heb eindelijk weer eens zes zinnen! Ik ben nog steeds druk bezig met mijn scriptie, maar omdat ik in een rare fase zit, heb ik niet zoveel kunnen (voor)werken als gehoopt. Dus ik heb veel video games gespeeld en nu heb ik eindelijk pas weer even een moment genomen om te schrijven. Oeps? Ik moet nu wel schrijven, want de minuut dat Tears of the Kingdom uitkomt, ben ik waarschijnlijk een paar weken semi-offline 😅.

De zinnen zijn natuurlijk wel in het Engels, want ik schrijf deze fic in het Engels:

Kurt isn’t angry, but he does want answers, because right now, Blaine is leaving him in the dark and Kurt doesn’t even know how he’s supposed to feel about it.

Is he supposed to be angry?

Is he supposed to be sad?

Or maybe, is he supposed to be sympathetic?

Kurt remembers the look on Blaine’s face when he realised what was happening and a part of him recognises the shock and despair. A part of Kurt remembers it.

Ik heb nog steeds moeite met Kurts POV. Zijn hoofdstukken dragen zeker bij aan het hele verhaal, maar ik merk dat ik Blaine’s deel interessanter vind om te vertellen. Dat gezegd hebbende, ik heb ideeën en plannen voor Kurts hoofdstukken en ik denk dat het een interessante kant op gaat. Kijk maar naar deze.... wat de fuck is snippet in het Nederlands? Hoe dan ook, kijk maar naar de snippet en *kuch* de internalised homophobia tag is groter dan dat mensen misschien verwachten.

En dan nu, het weer: @quizasvivamos​ @blurglesmurfklaine​ @coffeegleek​ @esperantoauthor​ @otherworldsivelivedin​ @caramelcoffeeaddict​ @sillyunicorn​ @bazzybelle​ @dragoneggos​ @raenestee​ @tectonicduck​ @nightimedreamersworld​ @urban-sith​ @thnxforknowingme​ @captain-aralias​ @you-remind-me-of-the-babe​ @takitalks​ @justgleekout​ @cerriddwenluna​ @tea-brigade​ @ivelovedhimthroughworse​ @moodandmist​ @whogaveyoupermission​ @bookish-bogwitch​ @confused-bi-queer​ @aroace-genderfluid-sheep​ @ionlydrinkhotwater​ @1908jmd​ @special-bc-ur-part-of-it​ @larkral​ @chen-chen-chen-again-chen​​ @cutestkilla​​ @nausikaaa​​/@wellbelesbian​​ @artsyunderstudy​​ @martsonmars​​ @facewithoutheart​​ @shrekgogurt​ @boyinjeans​ @rockitmans​ @bitbybitwrites​
