✵ stardust ✵

just learned the director duo that won best director at cannes were a couple for 13 years that separated like. at the end of last year. imagine breaking up with ur partner AND creative partner of well over a decade and now 6 months later ur at cannes celebrating ur biggest career achievement. together. and ur both called javier.

by the way this is medical. this could save somebody from a migraine all the way to a seizure. this has always been serious. treat this seriously.

i do think there should be more stories and shows and stuff about guys falling in love with butch women actually, i think that’d be a good thing. and not ‘this is as butch as twitter can handle’, i mean butch as can fucking be without apology, and making those boys weak in the knees about it. i think it’s great actually to have f/m romances that exist to break gender norms, too. i think it sucks that the only mainstream het romances that exist are either about women who are already feminine or with women who are just a little too scarily masculine and have to be fixed into being girlier. that’s shit.

it’s not like. taking away from queer people if you let “the straights” have some genderfuckery in their romance, too. that’s good, actually, the blurring of gender roles and performance and getting better understandings of your own sexuality is good for everyone. and it’s really fucking weird if you think that mainstream “het” romances shouldn’t feature women who are “too masculine” because that’s only allowed for queer people, somehow.
