acting gay is trendy for straight celebrities because they know it will gain them fans and money. gay people will buy things simply because the person making the product is gay. we hype other gay people. this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it opened the door to straight people profiting off of gay people by partaking in overperformative allyship. allyship so extreme it seems that the ally in question is gay. this is manipulative and homophobic. and it hurts to be fucking honest.
like… I can’t get over the fact miss Lipa wore a shirt with “homo” bedazzled on it as a straight person. All of the flags, and the rainbow clothes and all the kissing her friends was because she wanted our money. I’m disgusted.
It’s so frustrating how celebrities think 2 women kissing is a game or some joke. It’d be real nice if female celebrities would stop trivializing gay affection. It’s so fucked. It is also fetishistic. Like they act as if 2 women kissing is some spectacle… something sexy and exciting to post on Instagram or Snapchat. I’m really fucking glad my love is a joke and seen as ~exciting~ and sexy for others consumption. I’m real fucking tired
Im pan and I absolutely don’t mind queerbaiting as it is called, because fuel my fanfiction and Tumblr posts please- inspire people to write stories about you fucking your freind- I’ll read it damn. If stars wanna be like, this is for everyone who is shipping me and this lamp imma make out with it right now- praise the Lord thank for your contribution to the ship. Get over yourself yall being not-straight is cool, but it’s not an exclusive club and your not cool for kicking other people out.
i dont even have words for this just shut the fuck up
Fanservice is not a real problem.
If fanservice hurts your feeling ‘I apologize not for my actions but for how my actions made you feel.’
If you have experienced real, in-your-face, painful discrimination because of your sexuality and you really think that straight people kissing each other on TV is an attempt to capitalize on your pain- you need help.
This is a double standard. If an openly gay star kissed someone of the opposite gender, no one would bat an eyelash. If a TV show gets most of its ratings because of the heterosexual sex content, no one cares. But if two straight people kiss and a show makes casual implications of homosexuality because that’s what their fanbase likes, suddenly this is a bad thing.
Being gay doesn’t loose it’s awesomeness by becoming popular, people should stop being hipsters about it.
hey as someone who has post traumatic stress disorder as a direct result of transphobic and homophobic discrimination i faced in school
