tbh queer romance is held to a much higher standard than het romance like a man can cry over another man, be close to another man, protect another man repeatedly, give up everything for another man, and there will still be people saying that a romantic interpretation is “completely baseless” and “it’s great that platonic love can be so strong” and “don’t erase friendship, i’d do all that for my friends!”
but then a man and a woman share a pencil and suddenly romance is alive
See, I see the exact opposite. Two male or two female characters glance at each other and suddenly the internet insists that not only are they a couple but that they’re canon and if you don’t see it then you’re homophobic.
i’m sorry have you watched a mainstream hollywood movie from the past fifty years and do you ever leave the internet ever i’m just wondering
