…are the straights okay? You can’t possibly think that because ONE bookish brunette with glasses is now canonically lesbian in one cartoon, all bookish brunettes will be seen as lesbian. LMAO This is like old men with long beards being mad because JK Rowling said Dumbledore was gay. “Oh GREAT, all old men with beards are now seen as gay!” |
Lmao. Right! “But what does this mean for ME?” |
Does that bother you? Why? |
Yep |
Yes. Because straight people don’t want to be thought of as gay. |
Yup! We all think you’re gay now! Thanks democrats! |
I'm a straight guy who is often thought of as gay and it hasn't bothered me since I was a teenager. |
Why not? |
Because lesbians are presented in entertainment as unattractive and frumpy and butch-looking and nobody wants to be thought of that way? How in the world should anyone guess you are gay unless it’s by what you look like? I know you’re waiting to dance around and scream HOMOPHOBIA but it’s a little more complex than that. |
Are you old? Genuinely asking. Because that’s just not the case anymore. |
Oh, but it’s ok to go ballistic if someone misgenders a trans person. |
Then why is Velma gay and not Daphne? Or Fred? |
Because it’s been long established that Daphne and Fred are attracted to each other? It wouldn’t make any sense. |
How? I’ve seen the original cartoon and got none of that. Fred wears a freakin’ scarf for Christ’s sake. They can’t make him come on to Daphne because he’s been in denial? |
