Lesbian Stephanie Brown...oh you're so real to me
#ramblings of a lunatic#on the one hand do i think her genuine romantic interest in Tim is a really important part of her early character???#yes it contextualises a lot of her behaviour especially when you compare Tim to other men in her life who treat her far more poorly#ON THE OTHER HAND#do i think her strongest most fulfilling and most equal (and homoerotic) relationships are almost exclusively w women???#yes#do i think steph is often a victim of her role as tims love interest meta-narratively?? YES very much so (thoughts still cooking tho-#-bc i have read a lot of her appearances in robin but not all of them and not in order)#do i think that it only hits so tragically bc she genuinely likes him and wants to belong in his world (for reasons beyond tim as well ofc)#so. you see it's very complicated#like in terms of being supported by textual canonical evidence she's bi and i love that reading a lot#this is just personal to me as a dyke steph brown enjoyer. i recognise it's not the most coherent interpretation thematically#(also either way I'd like to say. steph brown transmasc. not necessarily based on canon evidence just An Idea)#(and in my mind she's specifically the kind of transmasc lesbian that is transmasc in part bc of their relationship to their lesbianism)#(yknow?)#anyway
