My fellow lesbians and lovers of Miss Hardbroom…
I am a uni student looking at a pattern of queer signalling through visually gothic female characters. From my perspective, Miss Hardbroom resonates with many lesbian tropes (gothic lesbian, older historical characterisations of masc lesbians , camp , .)
However, I’m curious whether this interpretation rings true or if it is a reflection of the tendency to read queerness into characters due to a lack of representation in mainstream media. - my main point of research is how lesbians today may interpret queerness when that wasn’t the intention because we are so starved of representation!!
Any thoughts you all could offer on these topics would be greatly appreciated. Please rest assured that this is solely for academic purposes and will not be published.
Thanks so much 🏳️🌈♥️

Ooo I was tagged
Tagged by @lesty-xx
—Rules—
1) Write down the Rules.
2) Answer the Questions the Tagger gave you.
3) Write 11 questions of your own
4) Tag 11 people.
QUESTIONS
Hannah Montana or High School Musical? Why?
High School Musical because I just never liked the fact that Hannah Montana kinda had a pretty confusing plot for 8 year old me.
Do you have any weird quirks or talents?
I can flip both my feet around and still walk around. do the whole Danger Men At Work thing without messing up.
When did you stuff up at something but no one found out it was you?
When I accidentally wrote my own name on someone else’s paper.
Who would be the most boring fictional character to meet irl?
Yo-Yoji from The Secret Series. He would probably just complain about violin the whole time.
What would you name a boat?
The S.S. WHERE ARE MY EARBUDS?!?
Besides the Trivago ads, whats the most cringeworthy ad you’ve recently seen?
The Geico ad where the Gecko has a large gecko plushie in front of him and a human couple walks by and the human couple is all like, “He looks more realistic in the commercials.”
What’s an absolute wild or interesting thing you’ve read/seen this week? \
THE SPOTTED TURTLE IS ONE OF THE SMALLEST FULL-GROWN TURTLES IN THE USA. THE AVERAGE ADULT SIZE IS ABOUT 11 CENTIMETERS. COMPARE THAT TO A SEA TURTLE. THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF A SEA TURTLE IS 1.2 METERS.
If your five year old self suddenly swapped bodies with you, what would they do first?
Run around with no shirt on and scream “ I SHALL EAT ALL THE CANDY”
What’s a current trend that in a few decades people will be highly embarrassed over? (Like mullets back in the 80’s or denim on denim)
The fucking Dab
When you’re old, what’s something now that’ll you’ll be nostalgic over?
My consumption of energy drinks
If you were arrested, what would be your crime?
Vandalism then attacking the authority.
