And gay people are supposed to be called fetishizers by so-called smart and understanding iwtv queer community whenever they notice this?
oh they're bringing back that old school homophobia!
want to see queer intimacy for once in this supposedly "gay vampire show"? think queer viewers maybe deserve for the m/m relationships to be treated equally in terms of sex? well then you're repulsive, sex-obsessed fetishist! straight out of the 80s baybeeeee we're taking it back to AIDS crisis era rhetoric!
and where are all of these sex scenes for the two major characters from the source material?
"the show isn't just about sex!!" then why are they showing so much sex suddenly? rolin chose to change vamp biology to include the ability to have sex. why does that only seem to apply to m/f/f threesomes and m/f abuse? where's the consensual, loving sex which gay people have? why is it considered pornographic to wish that were represented in a show which touts itself as being both queer and edgy?
missing the point. again. which is about the kind of explicit sex the heterosexual writers and studio are willing to show
stop expecting to see queer intimacy, you gross, disgusting, killjoy faggots queers degenerates fetishists!!
oh yeah the books! where lestat and nympho gabrielle are always going at it and where baby jenks is a groupie who has a threesome with lestat in an elevator. those books.
oh? who called him straight? i must have missed that
i think this one might be my favorite:
wish that we'd been allowed to see consensual, loving intimacy between lestat and his first love? well they got more than louis did with men last season, you... biphobe?
genuinely, what is the logic here? lmfao
louis and armand having no real on screen intimacy is the same problem we're talking about now! hilarious how people kept assuring me during season 2 that it was out of respect for armand as a victim of CSA and trafficking. look how that turned out.
also hilarious how i was told claudia and madeleine couldn't even get one kiss (though we had to see the attempted rape of madeleine and hear claudia describe rape they'd shoe-horned in to "toughen her up") because claudia's too young and it's actually great rep for asexuals - why do you hate asexuals?, and you're obsessed with sex and you prioritize romance too much and it's more interesting if the nature of their relationship is kept vague and it's actually a super complex writing choice that you don't get because you lack "media literacy" and same sex relationships are actually deeper and more meaningful when they don't involve sex (absolutely get fucked)
these are homophobic choices. this season especially is riddled with homophobic, transphobic and misogynistic writing choices
