(tumblr cut off MOST of my tags in this, thanks Tumblr)
#I don't generally talk about this on here
#ever
#but the bechdel test post made me think about it again and
#wanted to try to put it into words
#at the risk of being dogpiled by people who don't really understand what I mean
#seb and I have this joke “jaydee hates women”
#and it's partly true
#I hate how women are portrayed in the media
#not just fictional media
#but news media and even anecdotes
#there's a certain way that people are taught to perceive and expect to perceive women
#I'm not an exception to that
#I grew up in the 90's with GRRRRRRL POWER
#and then in the 00's when cis lesbians were more visible in media and online
#and then in the 10's when trans women joined the parade
#and LOTS of people
#especially artists
#choose women and the portrayal of women and femininity as the focus of their art
#the tradition of womanhood the reversal and then abandonment or transformation of gender roles
#retellings of fairy tales and old stories etc etc with women in the lead and romantic roles instead
#that's all so incredible and I love that for you
#but when I excitedly click on art of what I think and hope is two trans men or even nonbinary people and find out
#that it's actually two women
#especially two sapphic women
#I feel like it's saying “this isn't you.”
#people like me don't appear in amazing and beautiful art and people like me aren't discussed and lauded
#I feel like if I could embrace being a woman and force myself to romantically love other women
#then I'd be accepted and could feel good seeing myself in the art that I love
#but I'm not a woman
#I don't romantically love women
