i was told to come ask you, and i will repeat this part, please treat this ask with kindness because i feel so dumb, i don't really understand why people are saying not liking tommy is homophobic. i'm only on tumblr, and i follow a very select few ppl, but every criticism i've seen of tommy has been bc of his past actions (which does feel like a major overreaction bc clearly the characters moved past it) the writing and acting choices, or a combo based fully on the fact that he's not who they wanted to be with buck. i just haven't seen anything that says they are hating him specifically for being a gay man, and i was wondering if i was missing something. sorry if this wasn't a good place to ask this!
So it’s never as blatant as “we hate him for being a gay man” it’s the language used. Calling him creepy, or gross, or a predator, or a groomer, or poisonous, or insisting that he’s sexually harassing Buck when he’s literally just flirting. The way they misinterpret every scene to say that Tommy doesn’t ACTUALLY have feelings for Buck and that he’s just a pervert in it for the sex. The way they gleefully imagine killing him in the most violent ways possible for the sole reason that he is dating Buck. Saying any gay man that is like Tommy sucks. It all adds up to this overwhelming feeling for myself and other gay men that we are not welcome in this space.
And the idea that we as mlm aren’t welcome is bad, but what hurts the most? The fact that we are so quickly swept aside by the people doing it as irrelevant to the conversation. “It’s just a joke, lighten up!” “It’s no different than what Taylor Kelly went through but suddenly you care because he’s a man?” There was a person in my notes just the other day telling me fandom “isn’t primarily about men” so my experiences don’t matter.
What hurts even more is the passivity that many people in the fandom seem to have towards the rising tide of ridiculous nonsense leveled at Tommy as just “fandom shipping tradition” people I used to follow and admire as Buddie shippers turned out to not fucking care about how they and their friends were harming the gay men in their fandom, when it’s based on a m/m ship. I’ve said this many different ways but the fact that gay men are only relevant when we’re fictional (and only if the fictional ones behave correctly and do nothing remotely problematic) feels a lot like fetishization… but you can’t say that because these people take that as an attack on fandom as a whole and they close ranks and accuse you of being a spoilsport.
So the homophobia is in the reckless use of language that evokes homophobic tropes, yes, but it’s also in the way its allow to fester and it’s more unacceptable to many people to call it out than it is to do it in the first place. And THAT creates a hostile environment for gay men, which is homophobia.

Maybe a controversial take but I have to get this off my chest.
Seeing how different wlw ships get treated compared to mlm or mlw is SO frustrating. Clorivia and Wriorinde is the perfect example for that. Clorivia has so many interactions, so many HINTS at them being implied, from their shared childhood, how they split up and how they found back to each other. Clorinde has been attached to that woman’s hip ever since 4.2 and is still met with so much hate because… some of y‘all hate seeing a good fucking ship…? And then there is wriorinde. Sure, Clorinde visits him for tea from to time but that’s… it???? (NO hate against wriorinde here btw, this isn’t specifically targeted at the shippers. I just think it’s a great example for the point I am about to make.)
Another example is Firelfly and Caelus. Before I continue I wanna say that Caelus and Stelle are the SAME person. The only thing different about them it’s what in their panties. And yet I see so much hate against Firefly x Stelle when Caefly literally gets worshipped to heaven and back. It’s. The. Same. Thing. Literally I cannot open the comment section of Stellefly post without people mentioning Caelus????
Not come at me or not, this is not my opinion. This is a fact when I tell you that wlw ships have to go through 738283 shared cutscenes, 91892 interactions of them being romantic towards each other, have to kiss ON screen and make out while they’re at it and somehow it’s STILL not enough for them to be accepted in the fandom without someone bringing a man into it.
Bronya and Seele are the prime example of that, they literally KISSED in the Honkai Manga and you still want to tell me that they’re not canon???
While ships like Caefly, Wriorinde, Robinhill, Wriolette etc has everyone AND their mother going crazy??? (Not listing Kavetham because they’re SO obvious)
This is NOT an attack against the ships themselves (except Robinhill because if you’re still denying her being a hardcore implied lesbian, don’t event interact with me), but some of the shippers themselves
And dare I say that the most hate comes from a certain Harem part of the fandom.

This is going to sound like dickriding, but I can't be the only Damijon shipper that doesn't have a vendetta against Nika.
The way some of y'all treat her, is utterly disgusting. Calling her names, being misogynistic towards her and hating her for fucking breathing, is generally weird. Maybe, it's cuz I'm not in this fandom long enough, but why do y'all genuinely hate her??? All she does is be a person that loves Damian.
Hating Nika isn't going to make Damijon less fanon. The girl did nothing, leave her the fuck alone. And I'm saying this, because I find it weird how mlm ships always treat the women love interests like shit. Fuck y'all, genuinely, just leave Nika's name out of y'all mouths.

As anti BKDK & anti Bakugou, can I ask why you hate him and Aizawa so much (at least I get it why you dislike Endevour)? Yes, Bakugou was bad at first, but he grew as character. Now, he is one of the best anime/manga character ever. When he 'died', many anti Bakugou overjoyed, but he came back alive !!
Why do you thing Bakugou as a character is so popular (beloved by non shippers and shippers)?
Are you anti BKDK because you dislike mlm shipping?
Thanks for your blog, I don't like to say rude things just because of fandom and fictional characters, but can I ask why you dislike Bakugou so much when he changed so much? Like, his devotion to Midoriya is real and he truly is a hero.
(Hope you don't mind to have follower who is Bakugou fan and BKDK shipper)
I have made a lot of posts about why I hate Bakugou.
It's not because he's a bad person. A bad person can be a great character. Shigaraki is one of my favorite characters in the series. I have a lot of issues with Bakugou as a character, not a person.
A big issue is probably how everyone treats him, especially in comparison to other characters. Bakugou can be as callous and spiteful as he wants and so many characters trip over themselves to praise him. Aizawa (I'll get to him in a second), All Might, and the other teachers don't see fit to correct his behavior, even when he's been violent towards his other classmates (mainly Izuku). Worse, Aizawa outright favors him.
Bakugou punched Izuku during the Final Exam and refused to cooperate. What did Aizawa do? Nothing. He passed him even though he failed Sero, who sacrificed himself to save Mineta. He doesn't even scold Bakugou for this even though he scolded Uraraka and Aoyama during the Training Camps.
Monoma isn't even half as bad as Bakugou. At worst, he gives 1A a hard time occasionally. But 1A absolutely can't stand him. Bakugou's friends- Kirishima and Sero- are Monoma's biggest critics.
Then there's how the narrative bends over backwards to make Bakugou seem like a better person. And why I hate Aizawa is that most of the time it's through him. Bakugou is accused of going too hard on Uraraka? Aizawa scolds the crowd to blatantly tell us- the viewers- that they don't know what they're talking about and that Bakugou respects Uraraka as an opponent.
Which isn't even true. He a) blatantly told Uraraka that she should have given up and b) assumed her plan was Izuku's doing. Aizawa was dead wrong, even though he's supposed to be a way to tell us what's going on. And this isn't even the only time he does this, he also defended Bakugou's behavior to the journalists and said that he would work on improving it.
Except he didn't. But this was a way to, once again, shut down criticism of Bakugou. Everyone who criticizes Bakugou even a little is antagonized to make him look better than he is: the pros at the Sports Festival, the journalists, Monoma, etc.
Izuku is also forced to be a tool to make Bakugou's development look better. He was forced to validate Bakugou's insecurities during Deku vs Kacchan Part 1. We're told, by All Might, that Izuku doesn't hold Bakugou's behavior against him. Even Bakugou's apology was less about Izuku- his victim- and more about making Bakugou look better. Izuku, as one of my favorite characters, deserves better than that.
Also, to me, Bakugou's "change" isn't all that significant. He still does most of the things he did before, it was just changed to be more comedic. Bakugou didn't actually change, he got a character shift to make it easier to redeem him. How can I say he's changed when none of the other characters hold him accountable?
I hate Aizawa because he's a bad teacher and a hypocrite. He's constantly scolding and berating Izuku, but says almost nothing to Bakugou. Accuses All Might of favoritism when he had a whole protege on the side he was trying to get into the hero course. Constantly berates his class for their faults while doing nothing to make them better.
Again, during the Final Exam, he had five other students who failed. Students he could have easily worked with prior to that exam. But he was fine bending over backwards to make sure Bakugou passed. He's a bad teacher that the series tries to make out to be better than he is.
Also, I do NOT hate mlm shipping. Zolu is one of my favorite ships ever. I hate yaoi shippers who feel the need to bash female characters for getting in the way of their ship (or being shipped with a male character in Katara's case). It's blatant misogyny, just because it's gay doesn't mean it's not prejudiced. Uraraka gets treated terribly by BakuDeku shippers, or she's shipped with Tsu or Toga, tucked away in a background sapphic ship where she can't interfere. That's just as bad as bashing her because it's using a sapphic ship as a tool to prop a gay ship.
I don't hate mlm shipping. I hate how some of my favorite characters are treated because of it. There's also an issue with it fetishizing gay men for straight women, but that's another issue entirely.
My hatred for BakuDeku is actually separate from this. It's a ship built off of abuse. The abuse even persists in their platonic relationship, it would absolutely maintain in a romantic relationship. BakuDeku benefits Bakugou and only Bakugou, not Izuku.
I think Bakugou is so well liked because his gimmick of tough and edgy entices a lot of people. He had a lot of fans before he started to get redeemed. And now with his "great" character development, it justifies a lot of people's love for him.

Kr////bk and Iz////och have the "i was nice to you so i must be in love with you and we must be meant to be" syndrome.
Oh, in fanon definitely. Especially kr/bk. Like, Izuocha is at least set up in a way that makes people think that they’ll happen so it makes sense for them to be widely shipped, but kr/bk really feels like the “I’m gonna ship these two boys cuz they stood next to each other for a minute” ship. Which I honestly can’t even judge cuz I used to ship the hell out of kirideku and kirikami lmao.
BUT kr/bk has that “I’m the only one who can tame him” dynamic in fanon that I absolutely loathe from any ship involving Katsuki. It feels like he’s being treated like a rabid animal who needs training and it just feels really dismissive towards his character and dehumanizes the shit out of him. Either that or the dynamic is kiri being dumbed down so Katsuki has to coddle him which is weird to Kirishima’s character as well. Like, it feels like their dynamic has to be changed too much in order to make it interesting romantically and it just feels off to me. I prefer their friendship way more.
I like Katsuki’s character too much to just narrow down his character development to him being tamed by someone. One of the main aspects about bkdk that I love, is that Deku never had to ask Katsuki to change nor did he ever want to change him. All he did was tell Katsuki how he admired him despite his flaws because “his strengths were just as impressive” and Katsuki decided for himself that he needed to actually acknowledge his weaknesses and change. He didn’t need anyone to walk him through it. He wanted to be the hero that Deku already saw him as because he realized that that wasn’t who he was being. In other words, the only person who was able to tame Katsuki… was Katsuki. And I can’t see that happening in any other way without it reminding me of him getting muzzled and silenced at the sports festival.
I like kr/bk in theory. Like, if I ignore the inevitable fanon mischaracterization of mlm ships, I feel like they have the potential to be cute together post canon… if Izuku was dead or something. Like I said in another post, I just genuinely can’t see Katsuki with anyone but Izuku. But that’s just a personal preference of mine, otherwise, I can see the appeal.
No hate towards kr/bk shippers btw, this is just how I feel about the ship in general!!

here's a hot take: as a buddie fan, I don't hate tommy kinard and the intense hatred towards him honestly kinda annoys me
was i rooting for tommy x buck to be endgame? absolutely not. but i didnt hate the guy
i understand the tommy hatred in the lens of his past racism because. that was for sure... odd! and although i can say, "well, hen & chim clearly forgave him for allat and if he hadn't changed then there would have been more backlash to eddie & buck casually hanging out with him," i feel like that's not the major reason most buddie fans hate him.
this is, again, repeating the cycle of having a favorite MLM ship being "broken up" by a love interest of one of the guys, causing massive fandom hatred. but, of course, they can't hate someone for no reason, so they nitpick every line that the character has said and try to find something slightly off that is at least *a* reason to hate them.
at the end of the day, i could really care less if somebody hates tommy. i mean, yeah, im writing a whole tumblr post about it right now, but this isn't going to effect my life in a major way. the biggest thing that actually bothers me is that a lot of tommy haters are just straight up calling lou ferrigno jr ugly (but in very mean ways).
i haven't seen it on tumblr as much as i have tiktok, but my personal favorite (its not) is them calling him a dinosaur. this is where it crosses the line for me. is it likely that lou ferrigno jr will see these tiktoks and be sad? No. but this contributes to a problem that i see so incredibly often, which is: people don't understand how to seperate the actor from the character, and see actors as nothing more than people on their screen rather than real human beings.
actors are real human beings. even though they probably won't see your post about how you think they're ugly as shit, other people will. maybe other people who have the features that you are calling ugly as shit. i also just think its incredibly inhumane to start nitpicking every single little thing about one person because you don't like the character they play on tv.
hate tommy kinard *as a character* all you want, it doesn't hurt anyone. what DOES hurt people is when you start critiquing people's looks and calling them ugly. i really didn't think i had to say this out loud, because i thought everyone had come to a consensus on this but.. i guess not!
tldr: as a buddie shipper, i never really liked tevan as a ship, but i hate the constant hate on tommy kinard because it goes back to the era of "hating every female love interest that gets in the way of your gay ship" and additionally, people not being able to seperate the character from the actor.

I am also so sick of some (usually white) fanon m/m ship acting as if it’s equivalent to a canon f/f. The absolute misogyny. Like shit jayvik was never going to be canon. I just see this happening in so many fandoms that I’m just annoyed. This isn’t me saying that Jayce and Viktor didn’t have an important partnership or friendship but when it gets compared to CaitVi constantly…i draw some lines
that's so real. I'm not gonna talk about all mlm shippers (obv) and idk if it's as widespread as it was before but. I still remember how a lot of mlm shippers hated every female character who took even a small step towards one of the guys from mlm headcanon ship. it's was literally crazy and sick.
but even when you compare headcanon mlm ship to an actual canon wlw ship, leaving the last one in the shadow? or speaking about a gay (even canon gay) character like it's a miracle when the plot is all about wlw couple? what a day to be alive

🔥 anything about sirius because i am being a little hater towards some characterisations too
i've already talked your ears off about this on discord but i'm happy to talk to about it again bc i fucking HATE new sirius black with a burning passion. i hate him as much as i love my sirius black that marauderstok can pry from my cold dead hands bc i'm not letting him go. i don't know when it happened and why but marauders fans are particularly persistent on taking away any interesting traits sirius had and leaving behind a whimpering pathetic twink that cries when someone looks at him the wrong way. sirius has been scrubbed clean of any morally grey traits he might've had (he's not allowed to care for his family (unless it's regulus) or long for them bc they are bad, he's not allowed to have any prejudices even though he was literally raised with pureblood mentality and taught he was superior to everyone else from the day he was born, he's not allowed to be an asshole bc he's not like his family guys!! and when he is an asshole it's always used to victimize the character he's being an asshole to and sirius is painted as the villain with mommy issues that can only be fixed by getting dicked down apparently)
i cannot stress this enough: LET THIS MAN BE A COMPLEX CHARACTER!! and no, giving him mental illnesses that miraculously disappear when he gets together with remus and making him attempt to kill himself post prank because he feels bad is NOT making him complex! you're just weird. you're just romanticizing mental illnesses and i can't believe you don't see anything wrong with it. giving him bipolar to justify his actions is?? not??? representation??? it's offensive to people who actually have to deal with these issues in their day to day lives and yet here you are using something that will impact their life forever as a plot device for your uwu sadboy mlm fanfic.
and that's what new sirius boils down to. he's a plot device, an accessory to everyone else's story that's never given much depth other than "oh his mom used the cruciatus on him and now he's traumatized". no hate to jegulus but hate to specific jegulus fics that turn sirius into an overdramatic caricature of his former self for the sake of drama and angst.
also, some of these wolfstar shippers... wtf are you guys on?? idk when and why (that's a lie i do but i'm not gonna say it) remus became sirius black in a werewolf costume but here we are. oh sirius was cool and effortlessly smart and handsome and girls wanted him? well guess what? snatches all of those character traits and throws them onto remus they're his character traits now. ignore how it doesn't make any sense for the werewolf child who was isolated from the rest of the world to be a smooth talking alpha casanova who plays basketball actually. while we're at it, ignore how unrealistic it is for a boy who was raised in a family that believed they were superior to everyone else based on blood status, who was raised to be the perfect heir and checked off all the traits needed to be one to be insecure?? and unsure of himself?? and stupid??? and a loser??? i don't understand what the point of flipping the wolfstar dynamic was when you're left with a shallow copy of the original but ok. you do you ig.
to summarize, my sirius is cool and effortlessly smart and egotistical and a complete asshole who thinks he's the best thing ever. is it an act to cover up how damaged he thinks he is because of his family? possibly. but i also fully believe sirius thought he was a god amongst men and everyone should be glad to be in his presence. he talked down to other people because he considered himself smarter, he rolled his eyes when students asked stupid questions and made fun of them when they got an answer wrong. he's a teenage boy let him be a dick with no excuses.
(also i find it funny when people write about sirius getting into a fight with james or remus and crying because they said something mean. as if sirius wouldn't throw hands the moment someone started criticizing him. he's toxic and that's what makes him interesting. that's his purpose! characters exist to make stories interesting, to start drama, not to be your moral guide on how to act. stories become so much more fun once you let go of the need to make every character a good person. also liking a character doesn't equal liking them as a person. i love sirius but i would hate his guts irl)

There's gotta be something scientifically deeper with whatever the hell is going on in bakudeku hate.
People who love toxic romance tropes, who ship characters that literally kill/try to kill each other, absolutely strangle at this ship when Katsuki was being abusive back when he was 14 and has been through active soul-crushing development ever since then (if you don't like toxic tropes that's okay, but these people are just being hypocrites. Plus, considering current manga events, i dont even think bkdk counts as a toxic trope anymore).
And not just on his side, Izuku learned to focus on himself and become more confident after the abuse he endured in middle school. They are currently Horikoshi's main and only focuses, he's putting all of the plot attention on these two. These are basic things you'll understand if you go through the manga or even if you're just observing the plot in fractions.
So I'm being completely serious; there must be some sort of psychological influence going on here with how absolutely despised Bakudeku is despite just being another funky mlm anime ship if you look at the surface. And I don't think it's about the shippers, because a big portion of the hate is completely towards the ship. Like it’s a red cape and these people are bulls.
I cannot speak on how toxic bkdk shippers were before 2020 because I wasn't there, but from my current experience bkdk's are the ones dealing with the toxicity being thrown AT them more than being toxic themselves. It takes one bkdk being toxic and bad for all of the normal ones to get hounded, but it's completely okay to send violence and death threats over this fictional ship?
I wish I only enjoyed rarepairs, they never have this kind of drama.

This is an open letter to spideypool/parkner/shippers of really any mlm peter parker ship, but those two are the biggest purveyors of this as far as I’ve seen.
I hope it’s understood that my tone here isn’t personal towards you or your ship but instead the result of months of frustration.
If you’re going to put Harry Osborn in your story as Peter Parker’s abusive ex, as much as I hate that to begin with, can you at least just… not put that in the parksborn tag? Just not use the parksborn tags on most social media and not use the Harry Osborn/Peter Parker tag on ao3?
The people who primarily use those tags are parksborn shippers. We don’t want to see our ship get slandered in our own tags. For another thing, people who enjoy parksborn are also often people who really like Harry, and it’s extra not fun to see him specifically undergo what is always very severe mischaracterization. There are a lot of reasons it generally comes off pretty poorly to write specifically Harry like that, but even just watching your favorite guy be treated like that constantly wouldn’t be very fun, would it?
I realize it’s a pretty pointless battle to try and convince you to not write Harry like that at all, and I really don’t care enough to try, but all I ask is that you simply not put it in our tags. That’s all we as a collective want. If you’re concerned about filtering, use a tag in the additional tags section, just not the relationship tag. You’d be upset if about 10-20% of the content in your ship tag was your fave being mischaracterized and written as an abuser. Don’t put it in the ship tag. The ship tag is where people who like the ship go to read and look at content for the ship.
Please stop putting it in our tag.

BOBs are derailing so hard that do they even consider the possibility of Buck still ending up with a woman? I always see the polarizing discourse in 911twt and it baffles me how self-serving and monotonous these extremist buddie shippers are. First, hating on fans who enjoys Buck and Tommy together, saying the latter is an underdeveloped character and the relationship has been mostly boring so far. They've been together for ONLY three episodes yet, let the writers develop it into something more certain and mature. Second, acting extremely radical towards fans who enjoys the character of Tommy, accusing things like mlm fetishizers, racist, etc. Dropping these words like they actually know what they were talking about. Im actually convinced that you're only talking about representation when it serves you self-indulgence. Lastly, throwing tantrums on social media because of a goddamn TV show, making yourselves act like an entitled thinkpiece for a TV show. Log off your phone and computer, touch some grass, and take a walk please.
Buddie is actually enjoyable when you're not bombarded with crazy talking group of fans who thinks that Buddie is the only way for the show to do right. If you're not enjoying what you're seeing, ignore it and dont ridicule other people who feels good about it. Grow up. Write a fanfiction. Go back to reality.

So, a lot of people (maybe not those that follow me on here but people in this fandom in general) are really going to hate me for this but I really hate the direction this fandom is going in with the "Slytherin Skittles" and such.
I just messaged a fellow fan account admin on my Instagram that said they'd really like to start posting again but wasn't even sure if people would like their content anymore because of how much this fandom has changed.
People were filling them in on all that's happened in the fandom recently and someone made a really good point. Most of this fandom hates Snape because he's a death eater and treated Lily terribly. Hmmmm, who does that also sound like.... oh right, Barty Crouch Jr. (altho he treated other people like Alice and frank who he literally helped torture to insanity terribly). And would you look at that; so many people in the fandom have started glorifying him and treating him like a precious baby as if he isn't just as bad or even worse than Snape. I mean you all can't seriously tell me that you'd think the Marauders would be friends with people that hate on minority groups (muggle borns like Lily).
Also can I just point out that in the Goblet of Fire Barty literally locks a man in a trunk for months, and stole his identity. He showed kids unforgivable curses and turned Draco into a literal ferret (he deserved it but still, it was a bit uncalled for). He really set harry up to die. He helped him all throughout the tournament just to get Voldemort back to full strength. Is this really someone we should be obsessing over?
And the babygirlifcation is absolutely ridiculous. It's mainly been happening to Barty and Evan, which I shouldn't even be surprised by. When I say that I mean it seems like this fandom (which seems to be consisted of mostly femme aligned people) has a really bad habit of fetishizing achillean/mlm ships, so it shouldn't be a surprise that these two guys often shipped together are being treated like babies by the fandom.
Regulus is the only canonically Slytherin character in the Marauders era that actually has redeemable qualities and proved himself to be a decent person (Narcissa isn't all bad either but she certainly isn't great). It's sad that a majority of this started because people wanted to give him "friends" (Regulus realized what was going on was wrong while the others didn't. I don't feel like he'd like them very much because of that).
I've heard a lot of people complain that Jegulus shippers and people who like the Slytherin Skittles are ruining the fandom and I definitely wouldn't go as far as say that, but like I said before, I certainly don't like the direction things are going in. And honestly it could be the fact that I was mainly in the fandom back in 2020-2021 when things were much different and I'm just not used to everything going on, who knows. And this isn't meant as a hate post towards anyone, I've just been thinking about this a good bit and needed to get the rant out of my system.

Thank you to all who voted in my poll ("How do you hc Weskers sexuality?")
I just wanna yap a bit about the result, you can definitely ignore this post.
First I have to say I am not surprised that "bisexual/pansexual" won. And also "straight" having the lowest percentage. Maybe it's because we are on Tumblr, other platforms like Reddit would probably have another result. I am probably biased but when it comes to RE and Wesker Tumblr is my favourite platform. (not so many Redfield lineage, Wesker creeps on Rebecca jokes, seeing Rebecca as an actual character without mentioning the easter egg all the time, not so much hate between aeon and cleon shippers, more open to mlm and wlw ships, trans headcanons etc)
(But maybe I am just lucky and didn't really come across them)
A thing I just thought about is "What if i did not only ask which sexuality hc you all have but also what your opinion of Wesker is" (e.g. "I hc him as bi and like him", I hc him as ace and dislike him")
That would have been interesting.
(Personally I see him as bi/pan, I would be glad if a dev or writer would confirm something like that but I doubt they will ever do this, also because of disinterest towards LGBTQ rep and fear of shitstorms by homophobic RE fans)

with all due respect to mergana shippers I think s3 is so much funnier if they’re not attracted to each other at all. morgana keeps threatening to get him executed by telling uther that merlin poisoned her but she doesn’t actually do it, and I posit that this is not because she loves him, but because she’s weirdly tied to the astoundingly complex level of wlw mlm hostility they have going on. it’s about the power of a lesbian and a gay man that fucking hate each other and yet are so attached to hating each other that the lesbian in question cant just take her brother’s weird freak of a boytoy who keeps turning up and ruining her plans out of the equation. if she gets him killed who else can she be openly hostile towards without arousing suspicion? it has to go somewhere and so the twink lives on. do you see my vision. average night at the gay club.
