As a fem presenting person, it’s really easy to see just how much disdain cis people have for transfems. I keep a pin on my work bag that’s a heart with a trans flag on it, it’s cute and I hope that it will make the trans people around me feel a little more at ease. But I have watched people in public (mostly on public transport) go from neutral to actively judgmental the moment they see that pin. I go from being another fem on the bus to someone they want to pick apart. I have had people notice the pin and move away from me! And if they’re doing that over a white fem on the bus, they’re going to be much more openly judgemental of people who are earlier in transition, trans people of colour, those who don’t conform to a strict gendered appearance, etc.

Anyways, protect your local transfems 💖

what about hikaren and futakao parallels. kaoruko and futaba are a reflection of what hikari fears her and karen would be if she didnt distance herself

[thesoundofmadness]

going into depth because I cant stop thinking about this

sooo both pairs are childhood friends who made a promise to each other. kaoruko and futaba stayed together, while karen and hikari seperated, both to fulfill those sacred promises.

both hikari and kaoruko were already standing on stage, and guided their partners to the stage when they made their promises. both are reliant on their partners in the sense that they need their partners to keep them on track. when things get too difficult, kaoruko runs off and futaba finds her, bringing her back and reminding her why she stands on stage. hikari needs karen to keep up her drive and motivation towards her dream. she probably would still be in theater without karen, but after losing in the London revues, she wouldve quit all together.

both futaba and karen are fans of their partners in a way thats almost self destructive to them as stage girls. they're not aiming for position zero for themselves, they want it for their partners. Which limits their potential as stage girls and automatically bars them from becoming top stars. futaba just has the self awareness to realize it and drive to change it, while karen is so blinded by Hikari and their promise, she literally dies upon realizing she has nothing else as a stage girl. Theres a reason futaba was chosen for the revues and not karen, despite karen having the talent futaba lacks.

It's futaba's realization that she, too, has a dream beyond kaoruko that forces them both to change. kaoruko was perfectly fine with futaba staying by her side as her fan. She was comfortable and content that way. But when Futaba started catching up, she got scared and ran away. and futaba came and dragged her back again. Even in the movie, its still futaba doing the pushing for Kaoruko, with Kaoruko trying to keep things the way they are. thats what hikari doesnt want.

Ultimately hikari wants position zero for herself. She doesnt want to be bound to one role and one stage with Karen her whole life. She wants to be able to stand on stage and shine without Karen, but doesnt want to hurt her in the process. she distances herself so she doesnt have to rely on her in the same way kaoruko does futaba
