i just think it's sooo interesting how every time someone needed to be the butt of a joke that subtly othered them within a group of masculine men or to get sensually pinned down and/or tied up or otherwise emasculated by a villain (almost always morgana which is also very telling) it was always closeted gay metaphor the titular merlin™️ or known arthurian bisexual g(a)waine. they really don't do homophobia like that anymore these days. which is probably for the best but when you add everything up it sure does paint an interesting picture of transgressive masculinity (and femininity in morgana's case)

#[morgana metaphorically and literally penetrates both merlin and gwaine] this is a homosexual act for everyone involved #bbcm #merwaine #gwaine x merlin #its them... the blоwjob brothers #e morgana!#the hierarchy among the men is also interesting like if merlin is there hes the butt of the joke and gwaine may even join in on the teasing #if merlin isnt there everyone gangs up on gwaine #and if neither of them are there its just arthur posturing and looking constipated in front of his men #in a lot of ways arthur is worse at performing masculinity than gwaine but his status protects him from critique #for as long as he postures which he never stops doing so hes fine <3 #he did stop a few times in s1 and it was very compelling but they nipped it in the bud pretty quickly #meanwhile no amount of posturing can save gwaine hes like lets talk about ladiessss :)) and the other knights are literally like #[rolls eyes] go brush your hair or yap on the phone or eat an apple like the fruit you are #this sort of treatment is to be expected with merlin and morgana because they are so Visibly Other #but gwaine is a masculine action hero thats rough around the edges and they could STILL smell it on him. wild
