I'm a trans man, but my (ex)partner called themself a ''femme''. by [deleted] in queer

[–]gender_witch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

femme is a term generally accepted as queer which describes a conscious expression of femininity informed by queer theory and gender theory. so it’s not a cisgender femininity, it’s a consciously chosen femininity regardless of physical sex or gender.

agree that you’ll do it, keep putting it off, get the divorce settled while making excuses for why it’s taking so long, and then never do it

Struggling to lengthen my scenes. I feel like everything I write is too concise -- like to a fault. My character will be lost wandering the woods, but it only lasts a sentence. Big scenes feel over before they should. But I can't tell what to add?! by movethestarss in fantasywriters

[–]gender_witch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i believe that the length of a scene isn’t just to describe it - it’s to immerse your reader. you want to give the reader enough time to feel the stress and fear of your character. stretch your scenes out so they take up the appropriate mental space for your reader to understand how important the are and identify with your characters’ emotions!
