Why I hate Fem!Michael & why that's got NOTHING to do with Homophobia.
I feel like it's important for me to make this post, so y'all understand WHY I've made this blog.
So, first off - the central theme of Francesca’s book is moving on from the love of her life.
I don't need to see the script for their season, when we already know she's not in love with him & she literally let her pussy drop for Michaela the second she met her, in front of her husband - DAYS (at most)! after her wedding.
That's disgusting. & 2nd CHOOSING a partner she knows she can't have a kid with is entirely different from not being able to have a kid because you're struggling with infertility!
Most of you are the making the case "oh, they can still do all that", & it's giving the vibe of someone who's never looked beyond their own mental issues.
I'm a proud lesbian. But using Francesca’s story for our issues is NOT it.
If it was gonna be anyone, it 100% should have been Eloise. Her story doesn't represent a big issue that would have largely impacted her character, of a topic in our society or any marginalised group.
She could have easily chosen not to have the kids she ends up having & be content raising Marina's children with Philip, an OC or even Marina instead of Philip! She's a nonconformist already! It wouldn't have been a stretch for her to fall in love with Philip's sister, who's raising the kids after both Philip and Marina died. It wouldn't have been a stretch for her to move in with the lady who doesn't care about society, and only worries about her studies and children.
It IS a stretch for Francesca to marry what is essentially a beard, attempt to have a child with him, lose that pregnancy after the tragedy of losing said beard-husband (or maybe she just can't keep her baby while she's unhappily married to someone she's not in love with), while her pussy tries to climb up his female cousin's leg, who she knows she can literally never really be with in the way she wants to when she decides to remarry in the books. Or she can never have a family with - the way she yearns to in the books. Instead she chooses someone who won't ever be accepted as her partner in the society she grew up in ON THE SHOW! That's a subject that should be discussed - BUT IT'S NOT FRANCESCA!
Doing this to Fran is making a Frankenstein's monster out of her story, no matter how her season is written! No matter how much any of y'all approve with this form of genderswap representation! No matter who the actors are or what they look like!
I am definitely triggered by the topic because my Mom struggled with infertility for YEARS before and after having me. She killed herself when I was younger. After a miscarriage. It's WHY I'm so passionate about this change & why I hate it so much! My dad took years to move on from the loss and fall in love again.
Francesca's story always spoke to me on a personal level. & while I COULD have accepted Michael's gender change, the loss of love between Francesca and John, along with it, PISSED ME OFF DOUBLE.
Like, this WAS NOT the way to do it!
Also - I feel like it's important to say this : Don't go harassing the actors over this. That whole Franchaela debacle isn't their fault! If you have to - go after Jess, Shonda, Netflix & Julia. ✌🏿
