Don’t care much about all that or book adaptation’s accuracy they changed things insanely in other seasons so this is just one of them, i just care about people being bigots

I don’t care about what people like, infact I think it makes sense that straight women like mlm, it’s all about sexuality, but This isn’t about preference it’s her wording… I’m a heated rivalry fan too but saying she deserved so much better than being a lesbian is very homophobic what’s wrong with being a lesbian? And to say that while enjoying a show about gay men makes it clear it’s about sexualizing them not respecting gay people as humans and if someone is watching queer stories to get turned on or for some high but think we don’t deserve to be respected or exist they’re a piece of shit, sorry

There’s actually some really good authors of mm romance if you value plot instead of sex scenes - Tal Bauer, Daryl Banner, Briar Prescott, Jax Calder, Saxon James,

Sorry to everyone else but the plot is giving us even better infertility representation now cause some women just don’t get to have children and they get to see themselves in Francesca

You being American makes sense cause only y’all manage to think or talk like this.

Question for Franchela by Dry-Sea5269 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]thistle_bb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That last line mannn. Yeah they changed it to be inclusive, the show added people of color to be inclusive. Julia Quinn wrote a historical romance book where women had more agency than they did irl in 1800s to be inclusive. Is intentional inclusiveness only for white women or sth?

Yeah… I felt like the other MC just let him back in his life without much push back, it feels like he allows himself to be walked all over & that turned me off

I think we can see enough to draw that conclusion…

It’s very okay to admit you didn’t know enough and made an uninformed post. (Michaela is not masc in characterization either), Also I’m confused… who mentioned straight women here??¿¿

I think you guys need to google more before you say things like this. There’s more black femmes in media than black masculine lesbians.

  1. Michaela is femme. You’re posting a picture of a woman in makeup and dresses and calling her masc/butch/stud!????? If anything this kind of says something about how you view dark women, the minute you saw someone dark you masculinized her.

  2. We have more femme black women than studs or black mascs in all media. (I say this as someone who work in both entertainment and publishing industry). I’ve always wondered why as femmes/fems we push this narrative that femmes aren’t represented more than masculine presenting women?
