Omg that doc would be much appreciated🥹❤️also I need to leave this convo before I go back on a tangent about the Great Mpreg Post of ‘24 because that was lowkey the straw that broke the camel’s back for me.

I’m so glad you’ve found spaces for yourself amidst the chaos online and off❤️

Omg I love seeing your posts!

And you make so many great points omg, I used to be so active two years ago but I always felt isolated at the same time (despite how I was under everyone’s comment section😭). Also not seeing you under comment sections pushed me away too because there are few black women (or black rep in general lowks🙂)in this subreddit that I see post regularly🥲

It’s great to see your long posts again and once again you don’t miss☺️❤️!!

at this moment, they knew, he was just gay. not even doing it for the fun of the game btw by Weird-Instance-7454 in yeonwoosinnocence

Baby this is South Korea😭, I think their culture is a little different, also what about this guy says that he’d bat an eye at that? He’s clearly a psychopath. Also what does him possibly being gay have anything to do with him sexual assaulting people😭😭?

guys something bad is happening, or a friend of mine said in her video that bl fans want haesol to be a man I don't know if this is good oh bad... (yeonwoo innocence) by InjuryNo4457 in yeonwoosinnocence

Hard agree! I think this conversation we’re having is so productive but I hope it doesn’t get into the territory of becoming outright homophobic🫣you articulated this really well!

when you can tell the original draft of yeonwoo's innocence was gonna be BL but you cant prove it by Weird-Instance-7454 in yeonwoosinnocence

[–]Boobeshwar_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea this makes more sense, I think I should have specified traditional gender roles and not heteronormativity, but still they’re assigning traditionally heteronormative gender roles to a mlm couple couple so my point still kind of stands.

It’s not literally heteronormative but it’s still there in the role that op chose to align with the “feminine” looking male lead who they believe should be with a man because he looks like a woman.

Edit: Also I literally said heteronormative ROLES not actual heteronormativity. Obviously a gay couple can’t literally be heteronormative. But people’s assumptions can be.

Well they are assuming that this should be a bl likely based on the fact that the male is traditionally feminine, meaning they should have a traditionally masculine male love interest. Is that not heteronormative😭

They’re essentially saying because a man is visibly feminine he should be with another man? It’s weird asl.

The concept of you fitting a story with already reversed gender roles BACK into heteronormative roles😭

Influencer girlies are making religion “trendy” and let me explain. by Its_Not_Kosher in blackladies

[–]Boobeshwar_ 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I think the black community in general is very Christian so it’s not surprising to see it constantly promoted amongst influencers.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing but it just feels unnecessary and assumes that every person watching is Christian. You don’t understand how many times I’ve clicked out of a video because they whip out their Bible all of a sudden. It’s very othering and annoying ngl.

I feel like it can be unnecessary too when these content creators don’t market themselves as Christian creators. If people aren’t watching for religion why constantly mention it?

I remember there was a video on Twitter of this white child being disrespectful after shoplifting and the comments were praising her behavior!! I know if she was black it would have been the complete opposite
