#canonly queer and a lesbian to me

I hate so much how it seems like people get that it’s bad to call canonly bi and pan characters straight, but then will turn around and say it’s ok to “headcanon” canonly bi and pan characters as gay men or lesbians. The problem of calling mspec characters straight isn’t just erasing queerness, it’s the erasure of multi gender attraction. Saying a gay or lesbian character should have been bi or pan is bad, and the reverse is also true bcs either way, it’s serving as the erasure of a specific form of queer identity

Every week 911 just shows Buck and Eddie doing the gayest shit possible then we’re told they’re not canonly queer??

Honestly I'm kinda pissed with how the bridgerton fandom is being alittle right now

Like why tf not can violet have 3 queer kids in her 8 children series in the TV verse?? Yes it's not like the books but also the books are heavy with minor violence against women as funny scenes, particularly misogyny men AND just plain out some stupid and emotionally abusive plots! The books are not perfect and neither is the tv series.

But at least personally, the TV series is MUCH better then the books in my opinion from what I've heard from like 3 different book reviews on YouTube already. Yet people are upset that 3 of her kids are queer now in the TV canon.

Benedict is bi/pan, francesca is either bi or a lesbian and honestly thinking long and hard recently about it more, I'm pretty sure Eloise is ace actually. Acesexallity if anything not so much aromantic. ALL 3 ARE QUEER CANON NOW AND THE FANDOM WILL NOT TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME!!!

I get it, one of the best men IN the bridgerton books was changed into a women instead and it changes the whole infidelity plot from the book now. But honestly why not have that plot still but with a sapphic love story instead??? IT COULD STILL WORK???

And let Ben have his hoe era right now, he's AFRAID of COMMITMENT in ANYTHING thanks to season 2 and 3 showing us. These people who are book only lovers in the fandom need to chill the fuck out and let me enjoy one of my favorite characters in the TV canon being bi/pan canonly now.

Now would more polin and less subplots in season 3 be nice?? ABSOLUTELY YES, WE HAVE DELETED SCENES OF POLIN THAT DIDNT MAKE IT INTO THE SHOW LIKE?!?! I get A LOT of the fans frustrates from this as well and I'm on the frustrated side of the fandom on this one. More polin was absolutely needed in this season and thanks to the shitty 8 eps mark Netflix only allowed, we couldn't have that in the end. I still say I love this season a HELLA lot more then 1 at least but yeah. Definitely way too many focused subplots then main plot this season and Netflix better not let the same thing happened to BENEDICTS SEASON!!!!

GIVE US MORE EPS FOR THE NEXT FEW SEASONS NETFLIX!!!! DO IT YOU COWARDS!!!!

I love sonya. But only the sonya in my head divorced from canon.

To me Sonya blade is tomboy and so bisexual/sapphic coded it ain't funny.

She can be truly any flavor of queer or romantic or lack thereof. But she's hella queer coded and i will die on that hill.

I feel maybe she's homoromantic and that's why her and guys just don't mix as well. Honestly i was surprised she wasn't lesbian canonly. I always thought she liked women. And jax was the only guy that was an exception? I dunno young me wasn't that knowledgeable about queer stuff as i was discovering myself as well.

But let's talk about sonya.

I dunno i feel that so many people write sonya through a male lense? I mean it's gonna happen. However i would love to have more girl gamer and women fanbase write her or have more input. Most definitely.

But anyways sonya to me? Totally a lesbian. Maybe bi/homoromantic? Either way i feel like she loves women more. And going by many depictions of mk media,games,etc. It kinda leans towards that anyways. Again jax i feel could be the only exception,because sexuality,gender,etc is wibbily wobby anyways.

So i feel sonya is wlw definitely.

More hcs soon.

Arguments:

Walter Skinner

Fruity hands and fruity walk

Couldn’t confide to his wife how he felt/what he was going through but told Mulder.

Arrested that one guy with his pelvis in “Pusher”

Seems to be on first name basis with a lot of women at work (at least calls them by their first name, except Dana, but she’s too much of a dom for him to pull that and he knows it). When a man has that many female friends it’s a little 💅

I’ve only seen queers rock the long sleeve sweaters (tucked) and khaki pants, especially in warm weather.

That ass would be wasted otherwise 😤 double cheeked up on a workday afternoon

It’s literally in his middle name :D it’s a joke i swear

Dana Scully

That look she gave the tech girl after she asked if she would have to type with her tongue.

Very femme but also HELLA butch. Definitely a dom. Ladies get you a girl who can do it all 🫠💖

When she tucks her hair behind both of her ears it’s an iconic queer woman look and I half expect her to start slicking her hair back for a more masculine approach.

She grew up Catholic I mean we all know how that goes lmao

The bi/pan/lesbian awakening of girlies everywhere.

I need her to be queer so there’s at least a ghost of a chance of her stepping on me 🫠

Fox Mulder

His entire relationship with Alex Krycek. Seriously guys wtf was that.

With all the porn he owns/watches you can’t tell me he hasn’t at least dabbled in gay porn. Watching it. Not making it. I mean 👀 perhaps.

Rewatch the episode “Grotesque” he used to fuck around with his teacher maybe even date and it was a shitty relationship I’m not joking. “I wouldn’t dirty my knees for him.” I’m sorry what

Dressed up as Spock as a kid, an iconic queer character

He flirts with men in canon. Some say it’s Fox being sarcastic. I say it’s queer man sass.

The whole vibe of him and that senator 🥴 boy likes older men, don’t he?

Alex Krycek was not given as an option because then there would be no contest. He would win with 100% of the votes.

Why comparing the ending of GO2, OFMD and SPN with each other is a) disrespectful toward OFMD and GO and b) takes not into account the big steps we made in LGBTQ representation

During the last days I saw many jokes: Ha ha, every gay person ends up in super hell after their confession." First at all: Of course, if you only take a brief look they all seem the same. Castiel confesses and is sucked into the empty, Ed confosses and is left behind by Stede, Crowley confesses and has to witness Azi leaving him behind. Is there a theme here? Most definitly. But imo the only thing those scenes have in common is the Leaving-part and the confession-part, everything else is so different.

Let me walk you through it. First Destiel, the blueprint, some of you might call it:

I am glad they made Castiel canonly gay and confirmed his love for Dean eventually? Yeah but everything about this was a mess. We had 11 seasons of queerbaiting first. Then he confesses his love, immeditaly gets killed off and is never really mentioned again. The End. Making his love for Dean textual was neither a win for the queer community nor brave nor good storytelling. It was cheap move: "Look how inclusive we are", while actually including gay suffering and bury your gays. This was just a bunch of straight writers and a homophobic studio knowing it is their last season and making actual zero effort to give their queer character a happy end or proper storytelling.

This is nowhere like the endings OFMD and GO gave us.

So why are OFMD and GO different? I will look at them here seperatly and then add a small summary at the end. First OFMD, just because it was aired first.

OMFD

First at all, you need to see the ending in the context of the whole show. The whole show is 100% "Yes Homo". We have non binary, poly, bi and gay people who get treated incredible respectful, human and full of care. This first season always had a very clear end: Stede and Ed will confess their love to each other. " This was never: "Ugh, actually Castiel should have died ten seasons earlier and we actually have no clue what to do with him. He only sticks arounds because fans like him. Here, he is gay, can we NOW finally kill him off?" And don't forget Dean was quickly the next one to be killed by a rusty nail.

Gentlebeard wasn't a simple teary "I love you". It was a well crafted love confession, with a beautiful kiss. This show made a huge step forward in gay comedies imo. With OFMD we finally have a mainstream show that showed that you can write a comedy with an all queer cast without the jokes being about queerness. Its not like ODAAT. I love that show, but Elena always needed to crack a joke about her being a lesbian. But not OFMD. This show said very clear: "We might be all gay here, but the real joke is that they are shit pirates." It showed that it works. Gay topic do not need to be touched carefully, and not every queer character needs suffering or a coming out arc either. This show showed that gay people can just be... be who every they want. And I am sure many shows will follow.

But Stede and Ed were also split up, i hear you say. Yes, but them being split up is part of an story arc. The authors have already confirmed that this show is planned for three seaons, we just finished part 1. This seperation is hence not permantly. Actually quite the opposite. The authors knew how quickly queer shows get cancelled and still took the risk to seperate the main couple as a cliffhanger. And you know what? OFMD showed that queer shows can survive that. It even increased the demand for the show. Like it would have been for a straight couple. It is super common thing to end straight shows with the main heterosexual couple being split up and one rushing to fix the mess. - The end- Some straight shows do that every season finale. (*cough* Scorpions *cough* what?). Also Castiel ending in super hell was permanent, no turning back. This here? In OFMD everyone runs into each other the whole time, no matter how big the ocean is. They will be fine.

Good Omens 2

Good Omens started out completly different then OFMD but kinda has the same outcome as OFMD.

This whole story started as a book about two best friends. And even when it got adapted into a show and the lead actors said: Actually they are in love" But the author still said: "I want to honor the story I wrote with my friend. They love each other, yes, but what kind of love is up to you. Here they are, having a happy end. Everything else is up to you". But then we all asked him for another season. And he started writing it and suddenly had the whole creative freedom. And he saw how big the demand was for queer representation in an major prime show (or in general) and realized times have changes and said: "Fuck it" and just... did it. This is also so HUGE compared with Destiel. We have asked the writers and actors for years to make Destiel canon. They only laughed at us, mocked us and later used "eye fucking" as a joke term in their script. But only going there, after 20 years and taking no risk. Neil did none of those things. He saw the fans, the queer fans, their theories and then just did it.

In the past many showrunner said: "I don't want to make them gay. Its not the story I want to tell/It wouldn't fit the character" Neil proved them wrong. And this is also a huge step imo. Because even today we have really little showrunners who see their fans asking for a queer main lead/queer main lead romance and just doing it. Most showrunner do it never (Supernatural, Bridgerton) or after a lot of bargaining (The Witcher). Neil showed that it doesn't ruin your story. If you care for your characters and know your characters and feel that they want out of the closet, then let them out of the closet. Some showrunners should realize that sometimes the happiness of their characters is more important then their own plan.

And I really hope many showrunners will follow Neils example. Johnlock? Sprik? Idk how many more: "Male friendships where just written differently back then. They are just best friends:" I can witness before I go crazy. I hope Crowley and Azi are only the first to walk out of the closet, I hope many more will follow.

TL:DR. Comparing Destiel with OFMD and GO2 is disesteeming the huge steps we made in LGBTQ representation. If Ineffable Husbands and Gentlebeard would be a straight couple noone would compare them with each other simply because they broke up during a season finale. And this shows how much work we still have to do regarding LGBTQ representation. Now we need to get a renwal, because we are just getting started

[lagiacrus]

god i have to get this out somewhere or i'll blow up

musing on the f/f media in fandom drama/yaoi discourse/etc (it is not a particularly Negative post i am just thinking aloud)

i guess in my eyes. i think both sides have very valid points if you extend nuance to them.

like. one of the big argument points i see is

a) if you want more yuri content in fandom, make it yourself!!

i don't disagree with this! like if you need to eat you gotta make your food. but also... i completely understand when people express frustration at the amount (overwhelming) of yaoi content over yuri content (or even het content, which is what gives me the 'hmm!' reaction, will explain further)

like... i dunno! it is really a fuckin' bummer when a media with at least 50% female cast is just kind of turned into a Yaoi Pool, i think that there is a lot of stuff to discuss there in that a lot of people gravitate towards male characters more than female characters. i have experienced this! many people i know have! and that just makes me think like...

is the onus of this to be blamed on the people or the writers for being unable to create female characters that aren't completely pigeonholed into tired tropes and stereotypes?

i think the writer thing is probably the idea i agree with the most. but i do think there is also still like... an internalized disdain for women in general, and we see it even outside of this discourse, we see it in blaming women for being 'gross fujos' etc and only talking about yaoi etc. but that's a cycle isn't it? like. you can't win. if you like yaoi you're labeled a 'gross fujo' without any level of investigation on if said fujo is a queer person, without any concept of the nuance that comes with that shit. but it's also like... damn!! why only men huh!?

i have been a #yaoihead for decades so like... i have Seen this, for years and years, i'm not just some yurihead on the outside looking in or whatever, it is really apparent how much people just do Not like female characters, and it's so like... idk.

so much of it really is like, so much media out there has the weakest fucking girls on the planet in terms of writing, and it's depressing as fuck!!!! it's why i'm hesitant to ever 'blame' content consumers because like. idk. i agree, i hate certain tropes for female characters and unfortunately those tropes are the ones that tend to Sell Copies, so i end up gravitating to the more filled out male characters.

but when i see a media with like really well written girls and such and it's still super overwhelmingly Male Oriented in fandom, it's like... man. it's a bummer, and like. back to 'even het ships are on the wayside', one could easily argue it's because everyone is exhausted with het (rightfully so) being the prevalent media in society. but i also just... idk. I Do Think The Women Aspect May Also Be Part Of It! idk. i'm an agender lesbian, i am the last person to go to bat for het ships, but so much of it stinks of 'kill sakura off for naruto/sasuke to be real' but with new, social justice wording that makes it sound like 'good person' discourse.

i dunno! i dont. my view is just like... i love yaoi and yuri. all is good. but it is very much a bummer looking thru someones catalogue for a game with over 70% female characters and seeing only men and the only characters they only acknowledge are men... not even as a 'there's no content of women!' but in a 'what is so disdainful about women that they cant even get an acknowledgement' way, i guess. i dunno.

at the same time tho do not get me started on the overwhelming new presence of gold star lesbian people in yuri fandoms lol. 'if you like a yaoi ship or ship this CANONLY (IN MY HEAD) LESBIAN WITH A MAN you are an EVIL LESBIPHOBE (EVEN IF YOU'RE A LESBIAN) and should KILL YOURSELF' like yeah okay i guess so lol

i'm not trying to start fights or anything i just really think this whole situation calls for more words than 260 characters on twitter allows and unfortunately it creates so much fighting and aggression when it comes up because no one wants to sit down and actually think about what causes these things to happen. iunno. whatever!

“Cardboard flat” Xina Kwan was not cardboard flat, definitely not infact that’s why us fans love her so much and it is obvious this answer was aimed at her as a character because the question asked directly mentioned Xina Kwan.

She was a genius inventor that was smarter than Miguel who created/fixed Lyla, she was obsessed with retro things to the point she wanted her car even to be retro, she could stand up for herself and knew how to put Miguel in place, being able to insult him and Dana for things they’ve done and it’s not shown so much in a negative her carrying on way but a funny way of her messing with them for the hurt they caused. She studied aliens as well her entire life, trying to find out if they existed. She had complex emotions, even if Miguel’s love interest for a lot of time she didn’t even care about being with him, the most she wanted out of him was a sexual encounter in Mexico, she suffered human emotions like any character would, being conflicted about Miguel wanting to kill an alien life form even if it hurt her, and having survivors guilt when Dana had passed, looking past all her hatred for Dana to feel sorrow. She was so smart and gifted that even doom admired her and believed her to be amazing, with his last message to her being about how the state would treat her well and how she could have what she wanted from them due to how amazing she was for them. Showing her strength and ability to please even doom

And let’s not look past her childhood, where she helped shape Miguel to the way he was, helping him learn to stand up for himself, soon helping him want to go to court against Kron, helping him be nosey to listen in to what would happen, something someone that is cardboard wouldn’t do.

She had a sense of humour, guilts, strong emotions, the smarts not even Miguel had

Yes she had her flaws, any POC from old comic books do, there are times when the artist even forget she’s Asian and give her brown hairs and green eyes! Something that I hate about the comics, but she isn’t cardboard flat. And she deserved to not be “disposable.” She deserves to come back as a proper character that marvel doesn’t forget about, because without her, you wouldn’t have the Miguel that is in the 1992 comics, and without the miguel in the 1992 comics you wouldn’t have any of the comics with him in it, or any of the games with him in it, or any of the movies with him in it. Xina helped form and shape the man you love so much. (Let’s not pretend that parts of ATSV Miguel aren’t based off of 1992 when they are)

Also let’s not pretend you don’t like her cause she’s cardboard flat, or written badly. the opinion on Xina is because the idea of Miguel being with a woman is so disgusting to you because it’s too straight even though everyone that ships her with miguel, or ships Lyla with Miguel do it because they are queer and just enjoy Miguel with the people/things he canonly loves in ways

Like trust me I don’t ship Xina x Miguel because I’m a gross heterosexual that found them, I ship them in a lesbian way as a lesbian

And your excuse may be “but the marvel editorial settled on it!” But how can you use the same company who you are complaining about being racist and not knowing how to treat POC well, as a way to explain your feelings for not liking characters.

I wholeheartedly agree with what you said about those god awful tiktok gta fans, and Rockstar fans, for that matter.

If I were to make a post about the journalist from Manhunt 1 being a lesbian, I'd get EVISCERATED 😭😭

Thank goodness for Tumblr, because it's easier for us to curate fr

- @manhuntingbonzanza

its really sad that the majority (or atleast the most vocal) of rockstar fans are these gamer bros who can’t handle seeing people who look or act differently than themselves.

they see the word queer or lgbtq or diversity or anything similar and instantly go: “these new fans ruining the games 💀”

1. these things have existed in rockstar’s games since day one. for example, look at gta’s characters !! we have canonly queer characters !! we have disabled characters !! we have many many characters from all around the world !!

2. someone’s perspective of a game doesn’t affect you, i promise. if someone views characters a certain way, it does not mean that they are forcing you to do the same. there is absolutely no harm in coming up with headcanons and making personalities for these characters; it helps us to connect with them and give more life to the characters we love.

at the end of the day, i see this as people having fun. its fun to engage in a fandom and share thoughts! it’s fun to come up with ideas regarding characters and plots! and not only is it fun, it’s comforting.

I’m sure that others can agree with me when i say that we love a lot of these characters deeply. we all show love differently!! it could be making fanart, writing fanfiction, making headcanons, engaging with others in the fandom, or simply just loving that character in your own way.

for the fans: keep creating! keep making silly headcanons and talking about your favorite games and characters! there are so many of us who absolutely love to hear it! i definitely agree with the last part of the message, as this site has made it much easier to connect w/ others and just be silly!!! <33

gamer bros can cope and seethe. trevor canonically queer cope seethe cope cope cope cope.

(sorry for the long post i jus rlly wanted to talk about this stuff after seeing your message!! tysm for sharing your thoughts and i agree with everything wholeheartedly!! 💗💗💗💗)

also? I really think you need to take a second look at this. Because Clawdeen is actually canonly a lesbian in the series. It was confirmed in the monster high Bible and she’s gonna be with a girl in season 2 and she’s legitimately having a scene where she comes out to her mom soooooo

you were wrong about that too,

and uh? Did you not??? Notice the things Gil has wear over his gills to breathe without a water tank? Cause that’s not just a fashion choice. I’m pretty sure without them hed suffocate

Also!!! Twyla! Is finally canonly autistic! Something we NEVER had in G1! Not only that but we will have numerous more disabilities and disorders revealed in season 2! It’s already somewhat canon for Ghoulia. As she says people like her physically can not move around as fast as others. And need help from some things to keep up/function normally. (Aka in this case her skateboard as a version of a mobility aid)

We have NUMEROUS canon lgbt characters that are played out and see n on TV. Frankie is Non-binary is is referenced as They/Them and Mx.

They also have a crush on Cleo! And in the movies they keep calling Deuce attractive. So that’s at least a possible Bi/Pan right their

Cleo is CONFIRMED Pan! Also in the monster high Bible. She dated deuce and she’s now with Frankie in the series!

Deuce has two Moms! And they don’t shy away from them being a couple at all! Called Mom-dusa and Mama. They also tell the origin story of their first kiss!

We! Have ! Gay! Backround Characters! DEADWARD MY BABY! He’s gay and with Bram the Vampire! Theirs also a lesbian couple too!

We have plus sized characters! Which is a first cause we all know monster high G1 females were all rail thin and the only actually plus sized character we got was Kala, which wasn’t shown at all (cause they did such a cop out and made her slightly curvy in her tail. Cause oh yeah she’s a freaking kraken squid girl who you wouldn’t be able to tell was curvy at all without someone telling you)

They have a GAY STRAIGHT ALLIENCE FOR QUEER PEERS! Like what the fuck can you even believe that type of representation in a kids show?! They canonly said it and it’s a group that’s respected! I would have killed to see something like that in my youth!

Once again. Many disabilities that are hinted at! Manny with OCD. Lagoona with possible Anger issues/emotional regulation problems (shown through her ‘Chomps’). Toralei and BPD (not canon but I have BPD and see myself so much in her)

Also!! We have canonly abusive parents. Like?? ? Can you believe that??? CANONLY? Toraleis mom emotionally abuses her (and it’s largely implied that she’s physically abusive too) as someone who’s had a pair of shitty parents themselves, this was EVERYTHING to me. Everything!

And!!! They don’t even stop there! They have a spectrum!! Of bad parents! Usually it’s just a one bad parent and done deal but noooo, Cleo’s parents are also shown to be neglectful of her in favor of her older sister. The neglect has clearly caused Cleo to have a falsely big ego. As she likes to flaunt it to hide the fact she’s deeply insecure about being always told she’s less than or treated like a second choice in comparison to her sister! However! It’s also crystal clear her parents love her! Even if they can’t see that their obsession with Nefera has resulted in Cleo feeling pushed down. Theirs a clear difference between them and Catarina.

I could literally go on cause theirs so much more representation in this series. And it genuinely pisses me off that you’d take a look at all of this. All of its achievements. All of its glory. All of its steps in the right direction. And then practically spit on it and say G1 had more representation.

like. It DIDNT. Very blatantly. We even know if this from freaking Garret Himself! Numerous times he’s confirmed that he’s tried to add more representation of different things in the show and movies but was repeatedly told it wasn’t ok or wasn’t time.

Don’t get me wrong. Monster high G1 was amazing. It broke down so many walls in terms of being yourself. It will always live in my heart. I will always be its biggest fan. But what simply is the truth is that G1 was created in a time where representation wasn’t fairly encouraged. G3 is! And it’s already made leaps and bounds in terms of progress

MONSTER HIGH G3 IS NOT AS INCLUSIVE AS MONSTER HIGH G1

Maybe that sounds crazy. Maybe it's been said a million times. Anyway, I'm just ranting about my 3 am thoughts.

I know in G3 we have non-binary Frankie (who also has a prosthetic leg), and the Draculaura doll is more curvy. But as far as I'm concerned, they took everything else that made Monster High inclusive.

For starters, and I know it was never actually confirmed, but still, Clawdeen is lesbian (bisexual at best). Once again, it was never confirmed, but in my opinion is a theory popular enough for the Monster High management to hear about it.

If they really wanted to make it more inclusive, why did they not confirm Clawdeen sexuality and give her a female romantic interest?

No, they had to break up one of their best couples. This leads me to my next point, what the fuck are Cleo and Deuce doing being separated?

The first G1 dolls literally came as a package. If you got one, you got the other. That's how much of an obvious couple they were. And not only that, in the Boo York movie, they broke up for like five minutes before realizing they didn't want to be without each other.

Which, in my opinion, it's so fucking cute because they come from completely different worlds. Cleo is royalty, Deuce is just a normal guy. Cleo is a little too superficial, and Deuce looks like he never showers. But they love each other and that's enough.

And you know who else loved each other and that was enough? Clawd and Draculaura. What do you even mean with "Clawd likes Cleo"? That man was in love with Draculaura, that man would've done anything for her, and you're telling me they also broke them apart?

Especially since they made Draculaura curvy, it would've been beautiful to see them together. Because it would've been a great plot point to have jock, almost-bully Clawd evolve into falling in love with curvy, smart, witchy Draculaura. But no, they just separated them.

On a completely different note. What the fuck is Gil doing without his tank? Do I even have to explain why this is taking inclusivity out of the Monster High concept? He couldn't live without his tank outside the water. Ergo, he was limited without his tank. If you ask me, this is Monster High equivalent to something like hearing aids (and this is just an example, there are many other things you could compare Gil's tank to)

Also, Ghoulia talking bothers me a lot. First of all, she was the smartest of the group, but we couldn't understand what she was saying, which added a lot of comedy since us, the spectators, were only pretending to know what the fuck Ghoulia's plan was. And I repeat, she was the smartest of the group.

The smartest of the group couldn't communicate like everyone else. I won't even explain why that is fascinating in itself, because it just is and it added so much depth to whole story. And to add more to my problem with G3 Ghoulia, why is she standing straight and walking at a regular speed?

Ghoulia standing like a zombie was, again, to me, a form of inclusivity to all the kids out there who had some walking impediment, or, in general, had any chronic illness that stopped them from moving around. And her walking slow as fuck was just straight-up funny (especially that one web episode where she got a motorcycle).

There's a lot of things I do like about G3, as I think it improves the brand in wonderful ways, but they definitely took some of the most essential things that made Monster High what it was.

Hello Fragblr. This most likely wont get attention cus no one really cares about fraggle rock at the moment but I HAVE TAKES.

The important question: How old are they?

To me personally, if they were human theyd be college student age. oldest to youngest would be Mokey, Gobo,Red,Boober and Wembley

If i were to translate it to human years, Mokey Gobo and Red would all be 20-25 and Boober and Wembley are 18-20

Sexuality and Pronouns!

Mokey-Lesbian! She/Her but i feel like she'd rock some neos too

Red-Bi,fem leaning, She/Her

Gobo- Queer, He/They (only uses they/them with the five)

Boober and Wembley are both TRANSmasc and GAY

Relationships:

Its a given that SOME of the fraggle five are definitely written a certain way. Its undeniable how some of their actions towards certain others of the group are gonna be read as romantic.

Gobo, isnt dating anyone currently. I get the feeling he wouldnt be SUPER big on being tied down by an official relationship because the guys gotta go go go! At least thats what he tells his friends. In reality, They probably just havent met who keeps them interested.

Mokey and Red are dating! They even live together (canonly!). It caught their friends by surprise at first because they are so different but after "a cave of ones own" ( i think thats the episode name i could be wrong!) the gang was put at ease with their relationship. Overall, theyre a healthy happy sapphic couple and i love them:)

Wembely and Boober are so ridiculously in love. As of now they are officially together but it was a looooong process for them to actually ask each other out. Gobo definitely was a little put off by Wembley expressing his feelings for Boober. Just because he worried Boober's pessimistic attitude would too negatively affect the boy. Typical protective brother stuff. And dont even get me started on how long they went on pining for eachother cause they couldnt bring themselves to confess. Luckily Mokey (and Gobo) helped and they are now happily dating:)

NON romantic Relationships!:

One of these is pretty implied, the other one is total headcanon

Wembley and Gobo are adoptive brothers! I actually have no reasoning for where exactly Wembleys parents are? Any of their parents actually...Anyways! I think that wembley has always been a family friend of some kind, he was just officially adopted into the Gobo-Matt Family the day uncle matt left for outer space, since thats the day wembley moves in with Gobo. But there are some holes in this because when uncle matt comes back in season 2 to visit he doesnt quite remember Wembley. Oh well. Wembley and Gobo are brothers in my heart. <3

Boober and Mokey! Are siblings, adoptive or step, either way. Mokey is the oldest of the 5, Boober is the youngest other than wembley who i dont see as very much younger than him so they were raised together since boober was little little. I feel like in the show Mokey and Boober have the closest sibling relationship. Theyre so cute.

I have more headcanons if you ever wanna hear i might make another post:) toodles

[inthezoyne]

please tell me about your gravity falls lgbtq+ headcanons

Dipper is a trans man and questioning? He doesn’t know that much he used he/they pronouns 100%

Mabel has used every label at least once and isn’t done questioning herself she doesn’t know she is yet but it isn’t straight. She definitely uses neo pronouns. She’s the one who helps everyone else come out.

Stan is (semi canonly) bi and ace. Grew up in a heteronormative and misogynistic household probably took him a long time to realize he’s Bi and Ace until Mabel asked.

Ford is already (coded Aroace through subtext mostly in the journal) I like to think he thought he was wasn’t lovable enough to be in a relationship etc etc and then Mabel said “what if you’re Aroace?” and Ford went through five stages of realization in one afternoon. I personally think Aroace as well.

Pacifica is a trans in my head canon, they seem very trans 🏳️‍⚧️ to me. Whether they’re a Trans girl or Trans boy or non-binary etc. idk just they give me Gender vibes!

Wendy is an aroace trans lesbian because I said so. She dates a lot of guys in the series but never sticks with any of them and has a hard time discerning romantic feelings from just casual hang out feelings.

Bill is already canonically romance repulsed and doesn’t have a gender as stated in his 2016(?) Reddit AMA. I see him as Aroace non-binary if he were to use labels. Possibly had a queer platonic thing for Ford??? Idk.

Straight as Silly String

So, it’s only been within the last year and a half or so that I’ve started to realize I am both gray-romantic and Bisexual. I’ve always either been in denial or just had no fucking clue because queer terms are still things I’m learning.

Anyway, on this journey, I’ve noticed something that’s really starting to piss me off. And just what is that?

Well, it’s the notion hammered into us that the character cast of any given media source is Straight until proven Queer. and it pisses me the hell off!

Example? Well, have you ever written a fic or draw a pic of a same-sex ship and someone comments something like “How can you ship that?! There’s no canon evidence they’re gay!”

I always just agreed or don’t respond because I don’t have the mental energy to fight it. But what I always want to say is “Well, there’s no canon evidence they’re straight either!” when a character doesn’t have a canon relationship. Or if they do have a canon relationship, I find myself wanting to say “well, you don’t know that they’re not not Bi!”.

Why is it that every character has to be explicitly straight until there’s canon evidence of being queer?

Why can’t characters with unspecified orientations be whatever the fan wants them to be until their orientation is given (or even when an orientation is given. tastes change, after all)?

Want another example? Let’s use Team Fortress 2 for this but it applies to all fandoms.

You have two teams of 9 mercs. 8 of which are proven to be men with the 9th (Pyro) left ambiguous of gender. Together, two teams of 9 mercs make for a total of 18 mercs trapped and isolated in a tiny, geographic location for a minimum of 6 years. 

Now only 2 out of 9 mercs, Spy and Scout, canonly have relationships where they are in love with women. Before you say anything, yes it is mentioned that Medic has/had a wife. But it’s the late 60′s/early 70′s. At that time, just because two people were in a heterosexual marriage did not automatically mean that every married couple was straight. Lots of marriages were gay/bi men marrying lesbians/bi women in order to keep up a hetero-normative front so they weren’t the outcasts of society. In Medic’s case, he was already close enough to being on the fringes of society. Given how he is obviously queer-coded, he would have to be careful about being anything other than straight if he wanted to work and have a livelihood before Mann Co. 

Anyway, you’re trying to tell me that statistically out of 18 mercs, no one’s queer? That sounds like bullshit to me!

There is no way that you can convince me that 18 dudes (I’m Californian, “dude” is gender neutral) away from the prying eyes of social norms aren’t gonna start forming queer or queer-platonic relationships of some kind. 

*Spoilers for the TF2 comics ahead, derp*

I’ll use a classic example of a fan favorite: Heavy/Medic

Two middle-age mercs who are basically the mom and dad of the team. They canonly have a deep “friendship” that can be seen both in the comics and the game. These two spend a lot of time together, they work well together, and they sort of complete each other. They are protective of each other and neither can be properly happy without the other. 

In game, when one player dominates another, their character will tease and taunt the other player’s character. And yet, Heavy and Medic don’t have dominations lines towards each other.

Medic is one of the most fucked-up, sadistic mercs out of the bunch. Seems suspicious to me that he of all people wouldn’t want the pleasure of dominating and jeering someone as strong as Heavy. But, if Medic is romantically involved with Heavy, he’d be much less inclined to jeer his lover’s doppleganger.

And then there’s Heavy. He’s a sensitive man with a big heart despite his honestly frightening love of combat. But he’s softest towards family. His devotion to those that he loves is total. In the comic, the devastation he feels after Medic is murdered is total as well.

This man literally does not want to live without his Medic.

Bringing back the picture from earlier:

Their reunion is heartfelt. Moving on, Heavy immediately praises Medic ingenuity, just as he always does. And lets be real, I have never seen a person pour so much high praise on their platonic friend as constantly as Heavy praises Medic. Heavy can’t go like two minutes without saying how much he loves Medic, or how smart Medic is, or how skilled Medic is. There is just like a never ending stream of adoration that Heavy has for his precious German.

Also, at this point Medic has spent the past several comics being constantly verbally abused by the enemy, Classic!Heavy. Most of the time resulting in Medic being uncharacteristically docile and submissive. But around TF2!Heavy, Medic regains his cold, cruel ingenuity and confidence; becoming the force to be reckoned with that he’s known for.

The two complete each other both emotionally and in combat.

THERE NO WAY IN HELL YOU CAN CONVINCE ME THESE TWO AREN’T GAY AS FUCK!

The mercs are social outcasts. But working for Mann Co. allows them to be themselves away from the judging eyes of normal society. It only makes sense that most if not all of them would be queer, especially in a place where they could be safe in their identities.

So, why should we as a fandom have to believe that they’re all straight just because they don’t have canon queer labels? Especially when a canonly queer character exists in universe.

May I present Ms. Pauling! She’s the boys’ boss. She takes good care of them and she is very clearly gay.

You can see this clearly when Soldier and Zhanna are running around naked and covered in honey. Meanwhile, Ms. Pauling looks like this as she watches them.

It is confirmed several times over that Ms. Pauling is extremely tired of seeing Soldier naked. That means that she is clearly being entranced by the vision of Zhanna naked. 

No straight woman has ever looked at another woman like this. 

Ms. Pauling is definitely gay.

So, yeah, if one character is obviously queer but not explicitly labeled as such, then why can’t all the characters be queer? And why can’t characters be queer without an obviously queer character in canon? Why must all characters be straight unless proven otherwise?

It’s a stupid and toxic narrative that only contributes to shipping wars.

Why should a narrative that’s not even canon be allowed to overpower our personal headcanons?

We need to start allowing people to headcanon sexual orientations for fictional characters.
