straight white people making a romance movie: haha what if it was illegal to have sex? wait what's lawrence v texas. wait what's mclaughlin v florida. wait what's loving v virginia

[ninewheels]

As preposterous and stupid as this fucking movie's premise sounded (for a light-hearted rom-com, and not The Handmaid's Tale) I didn't want to think about it too much until the movie actually came out, and then I could see if it was somehow more intelligent and subversive than the trailer let on, but guess what, it's even worse!

One Night Only review: Pull out from this sex-negative rom-com

If this is what it takes to get a rom-com greenlit these days, maybe we should just let them die.

Sex workers are thrown under the bus, shown only as thieves who fleece men in the woods at night, while queer sexuality is relegated to a few scenes with Allie’s roommate (a woefully underused Quintessa Swindell) and a handful of pans past blurry same-sex extras making out in the background. “This night is for the straights,” Swindell’s character says to Allie, before saying that queer people have worked around straight laws for centuries.  This is supposed to be a nod to queer resilience, but largely comes off as straightwashing the history of anti-LGBTQ legislation in this country that led towards raids of queer clubs and incarceration of queer people in the not-too-distant past (let alone the current barrage of anti-Trans and LGBTQ legislation currently in the works and on the books). It’s also ignorant of the long and fraught fight for the normalization of age-of-consent laws, which, by the way, did not happen in all states in this very country until 2003. Yes, that’s not even thirty years ago.  By the end, our intrepid protagonists have not had sex with anyone, because this is a film about Romance with a Capital R (and I guess sex is not part of romance!) and for that very same reason they ultimately embrace the fascist state of things. They aren’t the only ones who refuse to fight back. No one in this cursed film is protesting this mandate beyond “repeal” signs in various windows and some creative graffiti (...) (...) If we are supposed to believe that the film is making some subversive statement about the state of sex and bodily autonomy in this country, it cannot end with its leads embracing their chains. That’s just warmed-over conservatism running around in sheep’s clothing.

yeah i wrote this post having only seen the trailer, but jesus christ. was this movie a psyop LMAO??

also, for the unaware: mclaughlin v. florida was a 1964 supreme court case that struck down a florida anti-miscegenation law that criminalized cohabitation (and thus, as implied, sex) between white people and people of color of opposite genders. anti-miscegenation laws made marriage and sexual relationships between white people and people of color, most often specifically black people, a FELONY in several states in the united states up until the 1950s and 1960s. though it was already struck down by the supreme court, the state of alabama didn't repeal their law until 2000! there were THREE ATTEMPTS at codifying anti-miscegenation into the us constitution!

like yes, the issue here is partially straight white people's ignorance on the united states's history of homophobic policy, but it's also really important to recognize that arguably the majority of the issue here is straight white people's ignorance of the united states's history of codifying eugenics and antiblack racism.

the premise could have been interesting as a serious dystopian story, especially taking that history into account, but it wasn't written that way at all. this movie should never have been a fucking romcom making light of the violence the united states (and many other countries) has enacted on any kinds of sexual relationships it deems undesirable.

can y’all maybe reblog this version i feel like people are forgetting about the racism and just focusing on the homophobia

My woke take, as someone who has worked in both a public library and a school library, is that we desperately need both more books that are at a higher reading level but a less mature subject matter, and more books that are at a lower reading level but a more mature subject matter, because 8 year olds who are advanced readers are still 8 year olds and don't want to read about graphic violence and torture, and teens and adults who have learning difficulties or who are just later readers for whatever reason are still teens and adults and don't want to read about Billy the Bunny going to school or whatever the hell.

I’ve thought about Giovanni’s relationship with gender quite a lot. He was a man living in Renaissance Italy so there was obviously the pressure to uphold the strict gender roles at the time, but my idea is that being the second son he would be in constant comparison to Mario, heir and the spare dynamics and all that, but also in the way of growing up Mario was the much stronger, masculine brother as opposed to the more emotional, bookish Giovanni. Mario had a much easier time conforming to the ideal of masculinity being the future Lord of Monteriggioni. 

Giovanni always felt like he lived in Mario’s shadow, not the oldest, strongest, brashest son. So he found other ways. If he could not be the strong one he would be intelligent. If he could not be emotionless then he would be sentimental. If he could not prove his manhood through how imposing he was he would overcompensate by sleeping around and fighting for fun.  

It didn’t work. Not necessarily. He blended in as anyone had to but he would never be the ideal son and heir like Mario. So he grew up with a quiet disconnect from manhood. He neither quite enjoyed it or outright hated it. His gender was just another role he had to perform such as being a banker or assassin. A matter of convenience. 

Giovanni at one point tried on a dress as a teenager, perhaps as a dare or after losing an ill-advised bet, then was a little too reluctant to take it off. When he was younger his hair was much longer, down to his waist but he had to cut it when his life got too laden with responsibility and he realized he couldn’t take care of it anymore. He still misses it. 

I can imagine how these feelings would have been exacerbated when he realized he was indeed bisexual. Another demotion against him. A sexual pervert with unnatural desires. 

Giovanni can’t deal with any complicated emotions though. He has more important things to worry about like providing for and protecting his family. Things that cannot allow any shred of deviancy. For that would be weak. And men cannot be weak. 

I don’t think he would ever truly process his feelings about his gender. Not in the canon timeline at least. But if he had modern labels he would be peak “I’m probably nonbinary but I have a job so I can’t worry about that right now.” 

This makes me think about trans Ezio. Ezio seems like he was the type growing up to idolize his father. After all, he was noted to look exactly like Giovanni, and act just like him, and Ezio was the one to be taught banking, Ezio’s the one with the eagle vision. And I like the idea of Ezio being a little clone of his dad. 

But that complicates things if Ezio is born female. He would be the perfect son and heir if not for him being born second and a girl. Ezio grows up to be a pretty gender non conforming kid. Fighting, hunting, banking, flirting with his brother rather than learning needlepoint with his sister. 

Giovanni gets many comments that he’s being too indulgent to his daughter. That Ezio is too mannish and will grow up to be a whore or an unmarriageable spinster. 

Giovanni can’t help but empathize with Ezio though. Maybe Ezio will never marry or bring shame to the family but he would rather have his child be unburdened with responsibility for as long as he can. He’s waited wanted to raise children, not assassins. 

Meanwhile Ezio is having a heart attack trying to figure out how to come out to his dad. He’s told Federico by now, his closest confidant. Like Giovanni, inadequate for manhood not just by timing of birth but also by the sin of his genitals. Always in comparison to Federico. Only now it matters less what is inside and more the externalities. 

Ezio sees Giovanni and he knows who he wants to mold himself to be. He has the paragon of manhood in his eyes as a father. Yet another reason to be a failure. But Ezio is courageous first and foremost. And he will face the unknown of his father’s reaction. 

He can’t leave any room for doubt. So he goes to Giovanni with his hair choppily cut short, wearing ill fitting clothes Federico lent him and very firmly declares that he is not a daughter but a son. 

In that moment Giovanni remembers. Remembers being a failure of manhood in the way Mario could only conform too well to. He remembers being gentle, being soft, being bookish. And he understands. 

He lets Ezio be a boy. Perhaps this is right. Perhaps sometimes there were girls who were just better off being boys. Ezio certainly had the soul of one. 

And perhaps if Giovanni can allow Ezio to be male in all ways maybe he can allow himself things. Giovanni could let his hair grow out, maybe the occasional indulgence of a dress. Because if Ezio can be male without the external qualities then what should manhood mean to him? If manhood can be defined on qualities then what is Giovanni? Maybe he is simply comfortable.

Katelyn is so often acknowledged for her strength, confidence, and intelligence which is WONDERFUL but I feel something so often left out of her characterization in fanon is her SILLINESS. That is a woman who can get down with some silly! Some whimsy! She loves to have fun with her friends! Let Katelyn have fun! She is not serious all of the time!

This was a doodle I made when I was recently playing brotherhood (This came from my total hatred of a mission, also, Ezio looks really cool using an axe)

It's International Cat Day, so it's time to make a post about all the cats Gavin has in my art. There might be a few inconsistencies, because it's been six years since I started drawing Gavin with cats.

Half-Brothers AU ᓚᘏᗢ Kitty is a calico cat Gavin found in the street when she was a kitten. She's really vocal and often follows Gavin around the apartment.

ᓚᘏᗢ Elijah is a sphynx cat that Gavin adopted from a shelter.

His owner died and the relatives left him alone locked in the apartment for a few days before bringing him to a shelter. And because of those few days he was afraid of being abandoned and was clinging to every human who was kind to him. Gavin saw a pet ad saying they were looking for a forever home for this extremely clingy cat and decided to give it a try. He knew he didn’t have much free time and couldn’t spend many hours with the cat, but he believed he’d think of something. Luckily, the cat became fast friends with Kitty and didn’t feel alone when she was around. The cat didn’t have a name (his previous owner’s relatives didn’t know it or decided not to tell), so Gavin named him Elijah. He really reminded him of his brother. The main universe ᓚᘏᗢ A tuxedo cat right from the streets. Gavin didn't really plan to adopt a cat but had to change his mind when he found this one in the alley.

His name is Dipshit, but Gavin calls him "Dee" or "Dip". Inspired by Neil 👇🏻 And his appearance is inspired by the stray cat that Neil used to feed.

ᓚᘏᗢ This grey cat was adopted from a shelter, the workers there named her Catniss Evergray, but Gavin usually calls her just "cat" or "princess". She's not a fan of physical affection.
