i do think there should be more stories and shows and stuff about guys falling in love with butch women actually, i think thatâd be a good thing. and not âthis is as butch as twitter can handleâ, i mean butch as can fucking be without apology, and making those boys weak in the knees about it. i think itâs 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. thatâs shit.
itâs not like. taking away from queer people if you let âthe straightsâ have some genderfuckery in their romance, too. thatâs good, actually, the blurring of gender roles and performance and getting better understandings of your own sexuality is good for everyone. and itâs really fucking weird if you think that mainstream âhetâ romances shouldnât feature women who are âtoo masculineâ because thatâs only allowed for queer people, somehow.
