@fatoulotl But she also wouldn’t really know beyond knowing wanting to kiss her and wanting her to only want her. I was Elise in mid 00s, I was comfortable with myself yes but I had no clue what that could look like.
@TY_ADC Then things got more complicated and the two started fighting. And she was in deeper and deeper in relation to both Grace and her situation with Elise too. Her instinct was still there just pushed into a pressure cooker.
@TY_ADC I don’t even think it was even about that, she wasn’t furious with Elise yet when she kept it from her. It was really more of a distrust in herself than a trust in Lisbeth. In panic, she just let Lisbeth (jesus lol get it) take the wheel.
@mozuzz Her entire psyche was too preoccupied with her desperate need to fit in. It’s like hidden in the way she reacts to background clues and suggestions she hears and how she immediately bodily corrects herself.
@TY_ADC She’s an insecure teen who desperately needs to fit in with severely internalized homophobia. And in the beginning her instincts were screaming at her to tell Elise immediately but unfortunately she didn’t trust herself and let Lisbeth take control.
@TY_ADC The how is hidden in even subtler moments like her mom talking about Lisbeth’s bad posture to lesbianism and Anya immediately correcting her posture or repeating the reason (excuse for her) Paris Hilton used “like a sister” the same day she watched it etc etc.
@aroninran@v_noes87 And it didn’t. A male being a mere tool (that didn’t even lead to anything but to make him feel useless) did not make that scene for the male gaze.
@soooangelll Oh sorry, didn’t realize you were expecting an apology. Just was letting you know people don’t really pay attention to who’s who in explanations. So it’s rather an attention crisis than a literacy one.
@soooangelll@itisunraveling@ramoona_sp@snoopysredpiano Is it? Really? Bits of it yeah. But it has never been fleshed out like this, ever. Even Santana Lopez saying “the plumbing is different” was just left at that. Where is the played out stories of this story that seems to be universal amongst sapphics of naughties?
@alicentslottie It’s barely fucking toxic when you know “circumstance made them do it” and “they would actually put each other above all” is the maintext. It’s that people put women to such standards that they can’t see a main couple for what they really are.
@Da_Aub_Dawg_ It wasn’t even religion per se, that was just the regular experience of MANY in those days until even Glee times 🙄 Across cultures and countries too. I, a German, went through it (as Elise), and I know many a Türk who did too. A LOT of Elises and Anyas.
@traumatografo Why the fuck do you still have this up? If I accidentally made a hate tweet viral against any sapphic show ever, I would immediately delete it. Otherwise you don’t even mean what you wrote there, just said it to be a miserable fuck who wanted to feel superior.
