Todays hot take:
I want clichés represented with queer characters that arent like twink and top
Like give me a stereotypical mean girl with a girlfriend
Give me a t4t quarterback and his cheer captain girlfriend
Give me an outcastXsocial butterfly qpr
Give me a conflicted main character in a lovetriangle turned polycule
Give me an ace "chosen one"
Give me a nb prom court
Give me a queer coming of age story that's a little cliché because cliché stories can be fun too
Does this make any sense or is it time for me to head to bed?
#i want representation that isnt there just to be representation#am i making sense#lgbtqia#queer characters#i want they were this#and also happened to be queer#not they were queer#and also happened to be this#I feel like so much emphasis is put on the fact that queer people are just people that dont fit into the cishet box#and are capable of everything someone within the cishet box is capable of#but its not represented in media#I so rarely see queer coming of age stories that are about more than coming out and the effects of it#but there's more to growing up queer than that#i am class president#i am on the volleyball team#my parents are divorced#i like to write#and draw#and I am sarcastic#and good at math#and i have friends#and a dog#and I love learning languages#I am a million things#and i am queer#being queer is a part of my story#but it isnt the only thing that I am#and I'd love more stories written about people like me#sorry for the essay in the tags#but its fine
