Hilson is so fuckin great. Like it's not not gay. It's definitely not straight. The lovers of 'unlabelled' are missing out on Hilson. Cuz House is canonically some form of not straight. And Wilson is deffo bad at relationships with women. Like just straight up THE WORST to have ever been with a woman long term. And they literally get the most romantic ending. There are MULTIPLE episodes where there's not just joke references but them being seriously codependent. I think the idea was ALWAYS to not necessarily bait (or maybe it was idk) but also more of an open to interpretation thing than just straight up dousing that fire. They literally ride off into the sunset. On Bikes. Hello. Like. It's just so fuckin great. The fact that Hugh also just kept on insisting that house was definitely homo for his homie. And it's all banter and dialogue and plot and not some cheap bs like lingering gaze or physical proximity and shit. They're not (just) visually gaying. They're homotextuals and superior to EVERY coupling combo on that show (and any other show ever).

I write most of my posts with homotextual context

Step right up! It's your lucky day.

Hey buddies!! I’m taking prompts!

I’ve had some writer’s block recently and hoping taking some prompts might spark something.

Anything from a couple words to a few lines of dialogue, etc. for Imogen/Laudna 😊

(I don’t normally do prompts, so I’m a little nervous! Tho I can’t promise to fill everything, I hope to get something out!)

Preparing a presentation on jekyll and hyde and in my google slides-induced hysteria labeled the titular character(s) as implicitly homotextual

Playing dnd with straight men sucks,likeI want to do some emotional storytelling, but all men born after 1998 can't be vulnerable, all they know is get into combat, roll they dice, be homophobic and rascist, do dick measuring contests, and lie

there was no subtext to even read. it was homotextual.

Let’s be honest. The comic where Kon suspects that he may possibly lose Bart and the mere thought sends him into an immediate mental breakdown resulting in a fever dream of Bart in a bunny themed outfit (that literally references playboy bunnies) where Bart is later explicitly compared to romantic interests Kon has lost. could anyone possibly read that and go yeah that’s just dudes being bros

Entexualization and Context:

Please understand that we have to perceive everything about Gaymoji within context! By this, I mean that we have to understand that Gaymoji was created by Grindr for the users of Grindr. The target demographic is the users of this socio-spatial networking app (a.k.a. dating and hookup app) and that Gaymojis index specific things within this community and the larger queer community. By taking Gaymojis out of context, we lose their meaning. Imagine showing your grandmother this eggplant with the ruler- do you think she would understand that it meant something to do with the size of a phallus or an actual eggplant? And if she did understand the reference of the eggplant, would she know that the crown overtop the ruler refers to people who prefer larger penises (size queens)? How about the one holding the purse and how it refers to the Bob the Drag Queen song “Purse First”? Or- even an alternate meaning- which suggests getting paid first before providing a service?

By analyzing and considering Gaymoji within its context, we have access to a large scope of associated cultural meanings that are embedded within Gaymoji!

So I’m doing the course “Homotextuality: Gay and Lesbian Literature” this semester, and guess what book is on our curriculum (that I only just realized)? Friggin Carol! Yes, THE Carol. Or in fact, the book which the movie is based upon. But still. THE Carol.

the opposite of queerbaiting is homotextual

given the url and all, i don’t talk about byron nearly enough and it could just do with the reason i like him -- not why i started to, why i like him as of now -- which is utterly embarrasing. i really like the way his later poems sound a bit defeated, like that one when he’s thirty-six or the one in which we’ll go no more a-roving, although i think the tone of looking back at that which is no longer to be touched ever again is particularly touching (ha) about his oeuvre - in childe, well, sometimes i think it’s all a distraction from this, though it’s also palpable in the nostalgic poem about the tree from his schoolboy days, & in near anything about a past lover. it’s so peculiar, but these moments aren’t played for cheap tragedy and left to resonate on their own. there’s a sincerity so fragile it could be killed by crescendoing in on one word. one keeps making fun of one’s feats especially when they were inspired. the utter foolishness in being inspired by what one sees as greatness. for all the talk of b the rebel and revolutionary i think he’s awfully backwards a lot of the time. aren’t we all. well. nevermind. i can’t fucking get over the occasional tenderness especially when it becomes discarded quickly. i’m also really into queering gender and consider being a bitch to people a commendable pastime. i get a particular kick out of his situationally femme heroes and homotextuality. i kind of like his heroines too, the more vicious the better, i’m not a prude. actually i kind of like that manfred hints at inc*st cause had the affair been taboo for the reasons they’re taboo in victorian fiction i would’ve punched a wall in raging disappointment. it’s also uh, relatable to what i feel as unspeakable in myself et cetera. there’s too much speculation on what b meant or what it meant to him & not to be a new critic or anything but sometimes i don’t care & especially when the texts mean something to me.

There’s a paper about homotextuality in Brazilian literary canon I —

And about Mario de Andrade (our Modernist King™) —

The day’s getting even better

Kinks, Fetishism, and Erasure:

When I first started going through the Gaymoji database, I enjoyed how these Gaymojis were present in order to represent fetish and kink communities as a gay subculture, but aside from the expressed kinks and fetishes, which ones are not represented? What does this mean?

I realized that the linked Gaymojis represent accepted and acknowledged kinks and fetishes within gay culture, which include the presence of foot and armpit fetishes, bondage, dom/sub culture, leather (leathermen), and gloryholes. Dom/sub culture, bondage, and other fetishes are more prevalent within the community, and make usual appearances in local gay events, Pride parades, and media portrayals - especially leather groups represent a large faction of this. These facets of gay sex culture represent the communities kink/fetish groups, yet in Gaymoji, they don’t acknowledge other groups such as water sports, POZ fetish, pup play, scat play, and various other kinks and fetishes. By only representing certain kinks in Gaymoji, it becomes implicitly acknowledged that other forms of kink and fetish are less accepted and even rejected altogether. 

Not only do these Gaymojis discriminate by kink/fetish, but also (as a common theme) in racial representation by only showing white men in these Gaymojis.
