headcanoning villains as lgbt is super problematic and you shouldn't do it

Bruh.

You already sent me this like...a week ago?????? I think??? I responded to it here

Get like a hobby or something, I am begging you, rather than try to virtue signal at me. Twice. With the same exact message. 

As a queer person, I genuinely do not care what the fuck you think I should or shouldn’t do with LGBT+ headcanons for any character. I like thinking that Primo is queer. This might sound weird to you, but Primo is a comfort character of mine. Yes, he’s a bad man, he does bad things. He’s part of the fucking Calabrian mafia, but by God I love him to bits. (And despite what so many on tumblr think, that doesn’t mean anything about me as a person. Shockingly, you can like bad people and not be bad or even agree with the things they do). He lives in my head rent free.

Primo also literally has so much queer-coding in the series and I made a post about a bunch of it here. Even my fiancee who re-watched the series with me agrees with the headcanon and was also pointing things out as well whilst watching and agreed that Primo is very much queer-coded. We both say that Primo bugging Leonardo like he does is him flirting with the other man ffs. There is also absolutely zero heterosexual explanation for sharing his coke with Paul like he does in episode.4.

And don’t come at me with ‘but Primo called Gail hot!’ I mean, yeah, of course he did. He possesses working eyeballs and Hilary Swank is a beautiful woman. Queer men can appreciate female beauty. And literally outside that one like throw-away line which, for context, is when he’s high off his ass and making plans for how he wants the ransom money from her delivered, he shows zero interest in any other woman. The scene takes place in a strip club. Tons of scantly clad women around him and this man doesn’t give a single flying fuck. He was sitting with a prostitute in this scene as well and nothing at all about their interaction carries the least bit of sexual anything to it. And when do we see the prostitute character next? When she’s helping Primo to kill his misogynistic, abusive, piece of shit uncle lmao. Again, not a sexual interaction between them.

That one line in episode.9 is nothing compared to all the queer-coding of Primo Nizzuto. He’s gay af. This man has never seen a vagina in his life except the one he came out of.

I can and will headcanon characters anyway I want. If I want to headcanon Primo as gay, bi, trans, genderqueer, WHATEVER, I can. Him being a “villain” (and frankly even that’s debatable if he’s the real villain of the series. I say no though I do say he’s still a bad man cause he is) changes nothing for that. I like me some queer villains too. Cisgender straight villains only is the most boring shit in the world.

Now leave me to write Primo however I damn please. Keep pushing me and I will be forced to piss you off more and just make LGBT+ headcanons of ALL of Luca Marinelli’s characters (except Fabrizio de André because y’know, he was a real fucking person).
