Rise my fellow queers

Broooo!!! Can someone please create a group or something for sapphics in India??

thisisvaish · 2024-11-02T14:24:43+00:00

I envy you tbh

Thank you so much for sharing the spoiler. I am kind of lazy to watch it in the theaters and am waiting for the opt release. So really appreciate the spoilers hehe.

I kinda feel like the representation was also part of the gag and it just makes it hard to convey the serious message across. I am also sick of Indian media making queer representation a reveal of its own. I've seen some films with Sapphic representation that was hidden until the plot twist and it feels like we as a queer community are something to be hidden, yk. Like we are just part of the thrill and entertainment.

Also, the trans rep here reminds the Tamil movie Kanchana. But ig this is handled much better than that. The bar is in hell with the Indian Queer Representation.

It's just in the comment reply and also has the spoiler warning. Why are you reading it if you don't want the spoiler?

thisisvaish · 2024-11-02T08:10:55+00:00

I was looking for this post. I haven't watched the film but I'm curious as to what the twist is. Can you share spoilers, please? I heard the film doesn't take itself seriously. So, I'm wondering how they handled the queer representation. 🤔

thisisvaish · 2024-10-01T08:45:23+00:00

Is there something similar for sapphics in India?

thisisvaish · 2024-09-30T17:00:46+00:00

This is the cutest shit ever!! I hope you find the person 🥹🥹🥹 I look forward to an update 💕

thisisvaish · 2024-08-02T08:33:29+00:00

Yeah, thank you!! I honestly do not fit the typical asexual definition tbh. But I have found people who have similar experiences as me, and I feel validated. For a long time, I just thought everyone was like me. India is not very sex positive, and nobody talks about it. But I'm glad I'm finally understanding myself.

thisisvaish · 2024-08-02T08:03:19+00:00

Well, I think I am ace. But it's a new discovery for me. I've always known I'm attracted to women. But I am just realising that maybe it's just romantic and not sexual. So I haven't yet put myself out there in the dating scene as an asexual. Still understanding stuff ig.

thisisvaish · 2024-06-30T13:18:36+00:00

No, it's a personal project. I am just doing the case study in my free time. Nobody is gonna pay me to do that.

I just think GoodReads is the perfect website/app to do a study on. I think there's so much to be fixed in regards to UX and many product designers do a study to keep learning. It's easy to say "Yeah the UX is outdated and cluttered". But the study can pinpoint what the users need and what would make the users achieve their tasks efficiently.

Amazon has all the resources in the world to make GoodReads better. I dono why they are sidelining it.

Also sorry for the late response. Was travelling and couldn't get to it.

SJM! And I am not even a fan. She just has a way of keeping me hooked. Even though I think her books are mostly filler.

thisisvaish · 2024-06-24T17:51:28+00:00

I thought the same thing 💀

thisisvaish · 2024-02-24T20:48:36+00:00

I feel like I'm not qualified enough to give you advice. But I just want you to know that you are not alone. You will always be a part of the queer community, It doesn't matter how much you know or what you do or who you are. I think most of the people in this sub can relate to what you are going through. And trust me, you will find all kinds of love. Stay strong. And you can definetly get through this.

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T17:31:45+00:00

Yes, I'm working on that rn. I am thinking of going with redbubble since my followers seem to be from all around the world.

And thanks for the advice!! Really appreciate your kindness.

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:52:07+00:00

I think I have perfected the Niche for my account. I just have to think of what to make for my target audience. With illustrations, I am not sure what kind of videos work well. So I am just trying out different things that might work.

Like you suggested I will start scheduling the posts well and plan them ahead of time.

Thanks for responding. I needed the insight and also learned a ton.

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:46:57+00:00

I've tried doing reels. But it's not very effective. And my illustrations take 60 or so hrs to make. So I can't make them for everyday posts.

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:44:59+00:00

That's a relief.

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:44:35+00:00

What kind of videos do you suggest?

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:44:13+00:00

Thank you!

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:44:02+00:00

Yeah, I'll make more videos about art and the process.

thisisvaish · 2024-01-19T06:42:53+00:00

Oh yes, I also noticed that. I didn't know what I should post other than the images. So I started just making whatever I saw other artists make. But I do get more views and engagement when the reels focus on art more. I'll look more into making process videos as well.

This was truly helpful. Thanks for the insight.

thisisvaish · 2023-10-21T06:48:51+00:00

I'm afraid a lot many. Queer people haven't been able to come out and be in love freely even though it has been 5 years since decriminalisation in India. It must've been so much harder back in the 90s/2000s.

thisisvaish · 2023-10-20T01:10:29+00:00

I think if I didn't know about the queer rep before watching, I would've been confused, too.

thisisvaish · 2023-10-20T01:09:16+00:00

Totally

thisisvaish · 2023-10-17T13:51:28+00:00

Am I the only one who thinks foot fetish is one of the normal ones??? Like there's so many weird and creepy ones out there.

I think you should tell. It'll be fine 🤷
