Thinking about some stuff regarding the real Ann Walker...

Ann Walker outlived Anne Lister by 14 years.

Ann Walker was put away in a mental asylum because her family was that ashamed of her

Ann Walker was buried far away from her wife as unceremoniously as possible

Ann Walker's nephew (?) completely ignored her last will

Ann Walker is only ever remembered as Anne Lister's "lesbian friend" on the official Walker family history website

This is why it's important to not only remember and celebrate Anne Lister's life. But Ann Walker's too. Ann Walker married another woman in the early 1800s and she went against all the expectations from her family

Ann Walker who survived her parent's deaths and the deaths of all her siblings

Ann Walker who was a sexual abuse survivor

Ann Walker who had to deal with sexist mental health prescriptions who would dismiss her mental illnesses as mere hysteria or melancholy and that all she needed was a "good adventure"

No ladies and gents. If there was ever a time where we need to celebrate and remember the lives of historical lesbians, it has to be now. And if Ann Walker is looking down from heaven (or wherever else) then I hope that she will be proud. That she will finally be at peace that she is being recognized, loved, accepted and appreciated

And finally. I would love to thank the whole production team behind Gentleman Jack and especially give all my praises to Sophie Rundle for perfectly portraying this amazing person

Ann Walker: My girlfriend ditched me and gone to Europe with God know who. I am going to marry a random penniless shitbag.

Elizabeth Walker: Your girlfriend wrote from Paris.

Ann Walker: GET ME A CARRIAGE! NOW!!!

Anne: *immediately after getting married* We're going on a gay world tour right now, Ann, and we're gonna tell your aunt that we're married. Then we're gonna tell the Priestly's and all your cousins and aunts and uncles and all their dogs and we're going do that right now immediately.

Ann: No, babe, we're going home and fucking.

For Season 2, I think we should still get to the see the honeymoon and pre-wedding all night talk.

I mean, as much as Gentleman Jack is based on the diaries and true story of Miss Anne Lister, it is a Drama series. Not a historical documentary nor Master degree thesis paper.

Timeline can be move. It doesn't necessarily have to stick to the actual timeline.

So I say we have the legal rights to some steamy reunion scenes.

Who is with me?

Anne's face when Ann said "often a good friendship is better than a marriage" ---- "Great, here comes the friendzone shit AGAIN"

Is nobody else gonna talk about Anne riding on the back of the carriage?? That is Superhot.

Anne watching her watch obsessively in 1834, as we obsessively checking our phone in 2019 ... while annoying the pretty missus and getting scolded.

Same old story.

[puppypont]

But.. but Anne... the thing that you bring is a weather station, not a thermometer.

#gentleman jack #I know ep07 is not a happy one but the size of it is too funny

Tuesday 12 June [Halifax]

In the afternoon, at 5¼, walked along the new road & got past Pump when Miss Ann Walker of Crownest overtook me, having run herself almost out of breath. Walked with her as far as the Lidget entrance to their own grounds & got home at 6.40. Made myself, as I fancied, very agreeable & was particularly civil & attentive in my manner. I really think the girl is flattered by it & likes me. She wished me to drink tea with them. I hoped for another walk to Giles House & the readiness she expressed shewed that my proposition was by no means unwelcome. She has certainly no aversion to my conversation & company. After parting I could not help smiling to myself & saying the flirting with this girl has done me good. It is heavy work to live without women’s society & I would far rather while away an hour with this girl, who has nothing in the world to boast but good humor, than not flirt at all.

-Anne Lister, 1821 (from the Secret Diaries of Anne Lister)

Someone recently wrote something like "Anne Lister drove women to asylum", while using two of her lovers Eliza Raine and Ann Walker both been admitted to mental facility as evidence.

I have another opinion. I don't think Anne was responsible for pushing these women into mental breakdown. It could be the other way around. It is not Miss Lister that had affected these women.

They had the effect on her. Meaning: Miss Lister tend to attracted to women with predisposition for mental breakdown.

(Politically incorrectly speaking, it was Miss Lister who liked crazy women. )

#gentleman jack #anne lister #ann walker #fall in love with the crazy one #bet most of us had all been there

It had been 6 hours since I got access to watch ep 06.

Still I couldn't bring myself to watch coherently throughout the episode without pausing, fast forwarding and looping some scene. Thank god it is an hour per epi. Otherwise who know how long it will take

So obsessed with the icon Lister that I even try to find out what happened to Miss Walker's estates after her death. The nephew,  Evan Charles Sutherland (d. 1913). got it. He sold it off, spend it and died somewhat poor.
