The best friends to lovers trope is incredibly popular and has been around for ages. But, when it involves two women, suddenly people are like “you’ve never had a best friend if you ship them” or “I support female friendships! Don’t corrupt their friendship with romance.” As if romance between two women automatically diminishes their friendship instead of strengthening their existing bond and creating a beautiful romantic relationship based off of the foundation of their friendship.
i fully acknowledge that the real issues with tswift are her climate crimes, her being besties with trump supporters and the fact that she's a billionaire and not her godawful songwriting skills
but like i can't not make fun of her lyrics im sorry
like i dont want to take away from the actual material harm shes doing but she really wrote a song called Canceled like she's an edgy netflix comedian and unfortunately that is too funny for me to ignore
Whoever invented "open in app" links that redirect you to the app store instead of actually opening the app even when you already have the app installed on your phone should be involuntarily turned into a beanbag chair

Thinking about the way that patriarchal and heteronormative norms make mlm and wlw ships different from each other, especially regarding physical touch. For mlm, the slightest touch is taboo and can be mistaken for something romantic, so it’s a matter of, “how much can I touch him and get away with?” i.e. shared glances, lots of patting, touching of shoulders etc. all with the crippling fear that it’ll be “too much” or “look suspect.”
But wlw ships are the exact opposite bc while nearly any amount of man/man contact is interpreted as romantic, almost no amount of woman/woman contact is, not even cuddling, sleeping in the same bed, kissing, or sometimes even sex. So it’s not a matter of, “how much am I allowed to touch her?” it’s more like, “no amount of touching her could ever be enough,” and the girls can all but confirm their feelings for each other and make the relationship official, but it’s STILL ambiguous. Like, “yeah, my best gal pal cuddles with me and kisses me on the lips, but that doesn’t mean she has romantic feelings for me.” It’s why seeing two men touch each other makes us go insane, but nearly all wlw touching, no matter how intimate, can be interpreted as “friendly” so it feels like never enough.
micheal holden is a wenclair shipper i feel it in my bones
im so tired please help i need to finish my homework.. :’)
MY TWO HYPERFIXATIONS?! IN ONE FANART?!!
"A man has died, even if you didn't like him, have some empathy"
Mmm... how 'bout no
"He loves her." "She's okay with bruises." "True love also comes through pain."
This isn't gothic, but dark romance trash. Total crap where a man has every justification in the world for doing these things to a woman.
"He's under someone's control." "He's been abused." "He's had a bad life."
Stay away from these people. Wednesday is dark, but that doesn't mean it's normalized. The series tries hard to save a man from his own sins by unhealthyly repeating that "he's actually JUST a victim, but he still loves Wednesday."
It's not gothic, but dark romance with gothic overtones.
I will not accept that the series saves a man who, using his trauma as a shield from his fans, continues to be considered sexy and reliable.
LET'S REPEAT
THIS IS NOT GOTH, BUT WATTPAD CRAP.
Emma Myers. You absolute angel. Perfection. Phenomenal. Carried the entire season. Was so so so impressed by the body swap and everything else. The dance? Delightful. Costumes? Amazing. Gorgeous. Talented. Are you free Friday evening please say yes
Wednesday Version!
Emma Myers speaking against Enid x Agnes THANK YOU
(to quote: “Agnes is a very small child, so let’s leave the children out of it. But, um, ship people who are the same age, that’s what I’ll say.” -EM)
Wenclair is RIGHT THERE people. When I saw an uprising of Enid x Agnes and I was literally like Wednesday in that one scene:
Long post... again
Friends. How many times have you come across posts online like, "Can't girls just be friends? Why do gay people always have to turn everything into a queer relationship?" Ahem... let's be honest.
Many heterosexual people (myself included) ship Wednesday and Enid. I love their dynamic, how different they are, and they're just fascinating to watch. It's not the tired old high school romance between a guy and a girl (in which case, tell me: why can't a guy and a girl just be friends? Why do I so rarely see cross-gender friendships in media? I have many male friends whom I love like brothers, and I rarely see that kind of friendship portrayed).
You know, if you write a strong friendship between a man and a woman with the same romantic subtext that they create for queer relationships... people will inevitably start shipping them. A perfect example is Aloy and Kotallo from the game Horizon Forbidden West. The creators were so lazy in writing Aloy's relationship with Seyka that the most popular ship ended up being a heterosexual one.
It's not that people are just desperate to pair up same-sex characters. No. People want to see LIVING, breathing relationships built on small moments, where you can feel that intangible care, life, and mutual respect in their glances. People are NOT interested in feelings that come out of nowhere after 2-3 episodes; they're not interested in this forced love where you don't even know the person and are already in love with them. We're not in the 1950s with Disney cartoons—this isn't love at first sight or clumsy attempts to get attention over a couple of episodes that somehow turn into love.
It's something shared, like a unity of souls, where people slowly find in another person the answers to what troubled them (this applies to both LGBT and straight relationships). It's care, attachment, loyalty. This is exactly what I find in Wednesday and Enid's relationship. They are interesting, soulful, and unusual. I, like many others, am fascinated by this interpretation.
Why, in our modern world, do we still get questions like: "Why do you ship two girls? Can't they just be friends?" Why do people always see such relationships as just friendship? Why can't something so profound be something more?
I'll say it again. I am a heterosexual woman who loves well-written heterosexual romances: Monica and Chandler, Lucifer and Chloe, Morticia and Gomez, Sheldon and Amy, Piper and Leo. And in the Wenclair pair, I see something similar. I get the same feeling when I see how Wednesday cares for Enid in her own way, just as Lucifer cares for Chloe, and so on.
And why are fans of this pair being shamed now? (I know many say, "Wyler shippers get brutally bullied too," but... many Wyler shippers do the same. I'm not talking about everyone; there are good people on both sides of the barricades.) I'm increasingly leaning toward the thought that people genuinely can't stand the idea that something like this could exist between two girls. It's cruel.
A well-written relationship with such a great chance to be shown on screen and enter television history not as a lazily written romance for a "checkmark" (Seriously. It infuriates me when they introduce a character, make them gay just to "have one," then abandon them. It's clearly done just so the creators aren't accused of homophobia—sarcasm—and then they don't develop it at all. People aren't stupid; they won't fall for this nonsense anymore. I'd be offended.) but as something serious, truly serious. Not a game, not a lazily written script for a diversity checkbox, but something global. Something that has a right to exist.
Crazy how Enid’s weak excuse of a love interest this season hooks up with her after saying he wishes he had someone care about him as much as Enid cares about Wednesday and then after that relationship falls through (with Wednesday herself breaking it off and telling Enid she shouldn’t give time to people who don’t deserve her) Enid decides she’s bored with chasing boys and wants to be more like Wednesday presumably focusing on their “friendship” - giving more time to someone who deserves her aka Wednesday. Telling Wednesday that she’s her pack, singular, after that moment.
Then they’re all flirty in their last interaction (while Enid is still human) - Wednesday complimenting Enid’s pessimism, wanting to wake up early to let Enid out of her cage and barely resisting winking at her.
They made s2 so homoerotic they had to get ahead of it and gal pal-ify them to not scare away their hetero audience haha it’s so obvious.
