I don't follow Online Discourse on purpose but it's hard to miss the legions of het women whose BRAIN CHEMISTREEEYYY WAS ALTERRRREEDDDD repeatedly rewatching two men get it on who seem to be *struggling* now that season five (5) of another show will be sapphic? and I think that's so interesting. +
Obviously missing is the chance to a) openly ogle both costars, whatever their own sexualities might be b) yeah, I don't know what they fantasize about, but it seemed like the *love story* element was big here? The yearning and stuff? c) anyone repressing their own attraction to women obvs+
might be having a reaction, sure,
and there's all this social baggage (oh wait do Maimonides' and Katy Perry's brands of condescending dykephobia actually have something in common? WEIRD BUT TRUE)
but still, it's *fascinating*
and I for one will be 🍿 on this the whole time Season 5 is going +
Big Dyke Energy
Yeahhhhhh
(Also wondering how much of this is a side order of racism/colorism. Because though India Amarteifio is also Black, as Queen Charlotte, Masali Baduza is darker-skinned, and misogynoir really really is a thing.)
