mmmmMMM people who say transmen can’t be part of feminism or are part of the system they’re trying to dismantle obviously aren’t trans/haven’t experienced how transphobic and hyper masculine the patriarchy can truly be
For real, if you’re in the LGBT+ community, look out for young gay guys and protect them from straight fangirls
Wait why what are they gonna do to me
they will try to collect you as theyre “gay friend” and honestly it made me internalise so much homophobia they see gay boys as theyre shipping materials and trot you out as an accessory
straight girls are just as straight as straight boys and just as homophobic ad dont let them get away with it
There was this one time in my freshman year of high school, we were in anime club (of course) and I was asking this guy if he wanted to join me and a few others to go see a movie. The club president overheard me and lost her damn mind because she thought we were gay and that I was asking him out. She was cooing and sighing and asking us if we were going to go ice skating (this was almost a decade ago, so no, she wasn’t referring to yoi)
As awkward as it was, it would’ve been a hell of a lot worse had either of us been LGBT+. Protect those boys from straight fangirls.
thank you for providing the only straight opinion worth reading in all 3000 notes on this post
not to mention the rabid fetishization. Remember when people sent death threats to martin freemans wife because he played a fictional character who was the subject of queerbait? If that’s how they treat straight actors who play fictional characters who are straight but in situations which make them appear to be gay, just imagine how bad it must be for real gay men. Also they constantly refer to gay asian men as yaoi which is pretty fucking racist.
instead of Friends they should’ve called it Friends & Ross
every conflict the Friends had to face was directly the cause of Ross
just saw an episode where chandler was trying to give joey money since he was struggling financially but joey was too proud to take it so chandler made up a gambling game where joey always won so chandler could give him money without him knowing. perfect example of two great Friends. then joey, confident with his skills in the game, goes to ross to play with him and loses it all to ross. joey tells chandler and he goes to ross and explains the situation and how the game was fake and asks for his money back but ross wouldn’t give it back. just one of the many examples of ross being a worthless piece of shit
I just watched the episode where Rachel hires a male nanny, Sandy, who is perfectly qualified and experienced. All of the friends love him including Joey who says that he is ‘learning so much’ from him. Except of course Ross who is a dick to Sandy the entire episode just because Ross doesn’t think being a nanny is a man’s job. Ross even went as far as to ask if he was gay in the job interview which I’m pretty sure is a big no-no. Ross eventually ends up firing Sandy purely because he’s a man in a female dominated job and because he thinks is too sensitive which is hilarious because the only sensitive one here is Ross and his fragile masculinity.
What about the one where Ross gets upset because his two year old son wants to play with a Barbie? He spends the entire episode trying to convince him that G.I. Joe is better.
How about the part where Rachel got a dream job in Paris, and fuckboy Ross who had treated Rachel like shit in the past, decided to try and win her back at the airport when he should have just let her go to her dream job.
I watched an episode where Ross and Rachel got trashed in Vegas and then went to the chapel and got married. When they came to Ross wouldn’t get an annulment because he didn’t want to be known as the guy who gets divorced. He is kind of awful.
KEEP THIS THREAD GOIN KIDS DRAG THAT FUCKER
Or the one where Ross yells at Rachel for dating Elizabeth’s dad because it’s “weird” for him but had no problem going out with Rachel’s sister, Jill, when Rachel had an issue with it.
Or how about the one where Rachel is having the time of her life at a job she loves, but insecure douche canoe Ross has a problem that she’s working with another man, and gives Rachel such a hard time about it, she decides she needs a break from their relationship
The show Friends actually invented the term ‘friendzone’ to describe Ross’ inability to show Rachel that he wanted to be with her (back at the start).
I fucking hate Ross so much
Remember when he cheated on Rachel and refused to say he was sorry about it because “it was Rachel’s fault, she wanted a break”? Ross is just a disgusting dickwad.
*At the hospital*
“I am Dr Ross Gellar!”
Rachel sighing: “Please, Ross. That means something here.”
one day all the people in this fandom will move on and many will become accomplished writers out in the real world and they’ll be original and unique and never betray their fandom origins, but one day you’ll pick up a book off the shelf at a bookstore and it’ll be written in second person present and you’ll just Know
a book in 2020: “She absconded down t-” me, crying: “I found one”
my favorite part of this post is i didnt even specify which fandom and 1300 people still knew exactly what i meant
2025: “The protagonist escaped by doing a pirouette around the enemy and rolling out the door like a youthful child” me: I knew it
