Olivia Rodrigo - the cure

I don’t think I posted this here yet but I found faces for Rodrigo’s mothers :) Elena is on top and Carina is on the bottom

Because from existing in a world where gender/sexual exploration is largely understood, accepted, and encouraged, the labels we use likely wouldn’t even exist for them

But then once I put them into like “modern aus” where they’re in our world, the language exists because it has to

One of my favorite examples of this is Meredith, who in her normal canon, just identifies as a woman, but “woman” doesn’t mean what it does to us, because she was raised in a society where the only thing that mattered was lineage, not gender, everyone could do every role despite their identity

But in Our world, Meredith would likely identify as transmasc and/or butch because she’d feel the need growing up to push against the constraints that being a “woman” looks like, taking some kind of low dosage T but not identifying as a “man”

Similarly, Rodrigo would be largely unlabeled in his canon, maybe call himself gay if that was brought up to him, but he just doesn’t care enough to think about it further — he was raised by lesbians and again the society he was born in didn’t place different meanings on same-sex or otherwise queer couples

Then in our world his identity is heavily politicized and him identifying as queer means so much more, especially when it comes to how he interacts with the history of being brown and queer in Florida/NYC (depending on the au lmao)

My OCs are wishing a Happy Fathers Day to Jamil! And an honorary Happy Baby Daddy Day to Rodrigo lol! 😂
