#she could have been bi

[gay-panic-at-the-disco]

therapy isn't enough, i need someone to rewrite all the icky parts in ouran highschool host club and turn it into the lgbtq-positive franchise i claimed it to be when i was ten and naive.

#guess who finally rewatched ouran highschool host club and got the ick and now has ruined their only favorite anime #the author of ohshc fumbled so hard with the story IT COULD HAVE BEEN THE QUEER BIBLE #i personally think haruhi could have been anything other than straight #she could have been bi #she could have been aroace #SHE COULD HAVE BEEN AGENDER #ouran high school host club #ohshc #anime #manga #haruhi fujioka #tamaki suoh

Since ao3 is down have my long list of gay! Mike thoughts and why I personally believe he likes guys only-

Mike, despite having a girlfriend, is not shown to have any female celebrity crushes. This only stands out because Lucas and Dustin, both of whom also have girlfriends, are shown rather explicitly having these celebrity crushes on Phoebe Cates.

Mike being unable to give El a straightforward confession at any point.

I think Mike calling El "beautiful" during the Snowball might be the most solid piece of mlvn evidence, but I'm skeptical bc of multiple things. At some point El's head covers Mike's eyes and while both Lucas and Dustin are nervous when asking girls to dance Mike is completely calm. He might just be confident, but it's strange.

Aside from the Snowball every compliment Mike gives El can be linked to family. "Pretty" isn't used among the couples and he refers to her appearance the same way Kali and Hopper do when they see her new look(s).

The mlvn season is the same season where El is constantly being referred to or mistaken as a boy.

Mike can't pinpoint a moment where his feelings for El began as evident by his use of 'love at first sight' in his monologue.

#byler #mike wheeler #i like to think if they were going for him being bi that mike and el wouldn't have been portrayed like that #like the 'will you be like my brother' or the jabs at their relationship or almost everyone calling them gross and dissing the relationship #also vickie potentially being bi - which i think she is - doesn't mean mike is #simply bc if we pretend he's gay for a minute- why would they have made vickie a lesbian #the mike-vickie parallels are meant to be about them dating people of the opposite gender #if mike being gay meant vickie is a lesbian then they'd have to speed run an arc for vickie bc she was dating a boy #why would they do that when she could just as easily be bi and completely aware? #gay mike wheeler

i don't remember when he first saw it in canon, but it would be really funny if sasuke didn't have any clue whatsoever about sakura's super strength until like the very end of the series. like every time he sees her he's been thinking "oh it's sakura probably still as annoying and useless as ever" and then it turns out that now she can punch a mountain in half

#naruto #naruto shippuden #uchiha sasuke #haruno sakura #bc iirc sasuke never saw tsunade do anything super strength related and most of what she's well known for is medical ninjutsu #and frankly i imagine he went to orochimaru's fully prepared to tune out weird rants about shit he didn't care about #so. maybe he didn't even know that was a thing people could do at all #i know that's probably not the case but it would be so freaking funny #au where the reason sasu/saku happened it bc sasuke saw sakura's punch something and it turned him bi #but anyway i think it would've been amazing if sasuke had gotten to have a 0.0 reaction like naruto and kakashi

im a firm egg pilgrim believer and also that if scollace were to ever be a thing they would Never be endgame. which works out pretty nicely

#scott pilgrim #thunder rambles #the timeline is ramona is trans woman and after months of being with her scott starts to question his own identity #less like 'what if im trans' or 'what if im bi' and more just 'what if i could be queer in literally any way' #which hasnt occurred to him in any conceivable way #and he experiements with ramona and then they decide to have an open relationship and maybe #maybe! #during this time scott hooks up with wallace #and maybe theyve kissed once or twice while drunk before this in college but w/e #and they have a thing for a month or two and its nice but not all that serious and actually it does more to bring scott and wallace together #as friends #than it does anything else #because scott is gradually more and more open about the way hes been questioning #and also in general because this is post-canon scott is a better person in general and sure wallace was awre of this theoretically #but now hes seeing it firsthand and they become the closest and most genuinely friends theyve been in ages #and then they kinda stop hooking up and then a while later scott's egg cracks #and its like the umbrella academy car meme. what if ur egg was slowly cracking and the overlap between ur experimentation #with ur identity and the egg fully cracking finally allowed u to mess around with ur cool gay roommate #for a limited period of time before your identities no longer line up for that anymore #anyway yea also ramona realises shes kinda nonbinary and has a sort of transgender 2: electric boogaloo moment #gives all her leftover estrogen to scott😭😭or something

[candyredterezii]

The defense/reason Utena is lesbian because of her having heavy trauma related with various men is a biphobic statement and completely ignores that bi women can and do face abuse from various men in their lives as well but we aren't ready to talk bout that yet I think!

#candyredtext #been stewing on this forever but last night w girls talking bout utena discourse #n how like no one seems 2 fucking understand the show and its characters n themes #abysmal #anyway anthy n utena are the bi/lesbian couple for the toxic yuri square. #right along with bubblegum/marceline #anyway tho let me also say cus ik the reading on this site is piss poor #but u can hc utena as a lesbian thats fine #but trying to say she is canonically / heavily coded to be lesbian due to her trauma around men is #ignoring the bi women who also have trauma with men as well #like hell im a bi woman with trauma related to men - some similar to Utena. #my two bi friends with similar issues also v much see themselves in Utena and her experiences #utena can be lesbian. she could be bi. but her trauma w men doesn't define one or the other solidly #does that make sense? i hope so. #anyway

I've reached season 5 on my CSI rewatch and I'm a few episodes past "Swap Meet", where a woman is murdered after attending a swing party with other couples from the neighbourhood. Near the end of the episode there's a moment that made me jump from my seat:

(Grissom walks up to Sara and takes the seat next to her. He's holding two cups. He hands her a cup of tea.)

[INT. POLICE DEPARTMENT - BRASS' OFFICE]

Erin Brady: Everybody fantasizes about other people. (She glances at Grissom.)

Even you, Mr. Grissom. A neighbor, a friend ... girl at the office.

[INT. POLICE DEPARTMENT - HALLWAY]

(The door opens. Paul Brady walks out of the hallway. Erin Brady walks out into the hallway. Sara is sitting in the hallway chair watching them. She watches as they meet and kiss.)

(Grissom walks up to Sara and takes the seat next to her. He's holding two culps. He hands her a cup of tea.)

LIKE!!!!!!!

Right after Erin ends her sentence with 'girl at the office', the first time Sara and Grissom meet again, he brings her tea. This might be an innocent interaction but to me it seemed like a nod to this relationship they have where both are into each other, know about the other's feelings, but can't/won't do anything about it (although Sara has kind of given Grissom an ultimatum). I don't know if it was intentional - I'm guessing it is, because I picked it up immediately. I might or might not have squealed in delight.

#csi #gsr #i'm very Normal about them btw i don't think about them 50 times per day or anything #need to talk more about these two here #because im obsessed about them in a Normal way #sara is like. my dream wife. i totally get grissom being in love with her for years and barely holding it together #i would not though #i'm 1000% sure she's bi. but the writers have been cowards so far #also she and i dress THE SAME. yes i love 2000s clothes so what #i could talk about her forever she's everything to me #and grissom. oh grissom. i also get why she's been in love with him forever #i mean what the FUCK went down in san francisco did they hook up and sex was so good it scared them #and now they have to live with that tension and they're scared of crossing that line #nah i'm guessing with these two they just REALLY clicked. like. they were an instant match and they knew it #but grissom didnt want to lose focus on work or whatever and they lived in separate states you know #but oh my god i totally get sara. grissom is such a silver fox. he's like one of the hottest old men i've ever seen in my life #you know what i 100% get tumblr sexualizing old men it's completely valid i'm in this now too #he has this LOOK. whenever he's angry at a suspect. and he looks angrily at them. i'm chewing on my keyboard just remembering it #and his smirks #AND THE WAY HE LOOKS AT SARA #im losing my mind #i love all of gil grissom but seasons 4-5 jesus fucking christ #ok enough with the sexualizing i love him as a character SO MUCH. he's absolutely fantastic #one of the things i love the most about him is that he doesn't judge people. whenever the team is confused about someone #or this persons' lifestyle #he's always trying to understand them and not judge them #like a true scientist he wants to understand the nature of things and people #and he's such a sweetheart i love him so much #like there are so many things i love about him i can't fit them all in the tags. same for sara #they're a perfect match for me

[eternallydreaminggf]

i literaly hate all of the bi vs lesbian stuff like "they dont get me" "ohh you cant trust ___" from both sides i feel like none of us understand each other fully within any group like i dont easily relate 2 a lot of other bi women if at all. i guess theres probably more of a consensus w shared experiences among lesbians bc of the exclusive same sex attraction but there is still not any group thats going 2 be a monolith... idk :/ and thats just my opinion i cant speak for anyone else

#like going oh im bi so i can only date bi people bc this. well did u know bi people can and will also be biphobic and accuse u of those same #things. megan fox is bi yet she said if she were 2 sleep with a woman she needs to have never been with a man bc thats gross. #anyone can say anythiing... and going oh bi women could never understand how it feels to have men chosen over u Like i dont even think thats #sexuality specific that ur female friend will do that to you and it will bug you #also assuming that any woman who was wronged by her female partner is a lesbian and her partner is bi. #idk so on #also this is not me saying i think lesbian omly spaces are bad or shouldn't exist DONT get it twisted #i feel like hrh collection imagining what her commenters are saying and screaming at them #a lot of lesbians do feel like often the only people who can understand them truly r other lesbians and they are a very small group so #something like that is rlly important

It is such a travesty I was hardcore not looking at the fact that I was into girls when I was a kid. The amount of "mia and me" mia/violetta wattpad fanfiction 10 year old me could've been writing... tragic.

#baby's first toxic yuri #every single time a media property introduced a 'mean girl' bully antagonist and then redeemed her i was OBSESSED #mia and me #mia #violetta #actually i could've been a mia/yuko girlie too... well she has 2 hands #and yes to be historically accurate it would have to be wattpad #by the time i discovered ao3 i already knew i was bi #and sure i suppose i could just write the fic NOW but it would not have the same flavor as a hyperxiated 10 year old #tbh mialetta (is that what we're calling it?) is not even that toxic. Now whatever the fuck gargona had going on with panthea? THAT'S toxic #they really did just recreate the queer-coded villain with infatuated henchmen trope but with women... feminism

*sighs in post mildly broke containment again* there's nothing wrong with reading willow as a lesbian, this is a piece of fiction, and the post I made took on a jokey tone for a reason and is ultimately more about underlying bi-erasure on tv than anything else kaybye ✌

#im watching btvs #jeepers creepers but btvs is bringing out the *taking it all very seriously in a very morally high-and-mighty kind of way* crowd #and i dont mean about shit that matters such as discussing racism or misogyny in fandom #just about whether you agree or dislike someone's read of a situation - move on my friend if you dont agree #i mean i could go on a rant about HOW the show portrayed willow-the-now-lesbian #(and while im at it why i hc buffy-the-apparent-heterosexual as bi too but nobody has disputed that part oddly enough) #but that would be an effort im truly not interested in expending on this day and possibly never and has been written before #im mostly just live-blogging and moving on #if im writing anything fanfic-wise it'll be about kendra and that'll be my full fandom contribution #ok but the ONE thing i'll mention is the fight willow has with tara which is one of the rare Ls for tara #where she basically admits that she's afraid this is a phase because willow has loved men/been with oz #and that's just an interesting fight from a meta perspective because the idea that bi women have to *choose a side* #and are consistently questioned and doubted by their lesbian partners #is a core element of biphobia within a gay relationship that many people can attest to #hell it's a big part of bisexual rep that is conscious of itself that at some point there's a plotline where the person is questioned #about their true loyalties and asked to take a side #btvs ofc is NOT conscious of this underlying tension and in fact i would argue is agreeing with tara that this is what needs to happen #for several other reasons as well #but literally people have WRITTEN about this im not saying anything bold and controversial here AND it doesnt take away #from lesbian willow reads to acknowledge the flawed approach of the show to her sexuality like come on #willow rosenberg

[gootrude]

imo both answers make sense in different ways, i could see her crush on akio as genuine feelings being used against her or as comphet + being overwhelmed/anxious around him and interpreting that as feelings (also she is being groomed to like him it's very calculated on his end). the only wrong answer here is straight utena

#rgu #revolutionary girl utena #utena tenjou #im in camp lesbian utena because it really does feel like shes being swept up in wanting to be normal #and has strange ideas about romance and is being heavily groomed into having a crush #both with akio and touga really #but then again i can still see bi utena cause it could be genuine attraction that the men are using to hurt her #that happens often irl #ik this question has been debated a lot im just curious what the general tumblr utena fan consensus is #gootpost

[breitzbachbea]

@fvriva Copying this out so I can do more stuff -

But yes! One of Charlie's many exes, only two of whom have ever received a name, is a guy called JJ! His full name is Jacob Johnson and I once posted some old pictures I had of him here .

They used to date when Charlie was pretty young and just out of school and were part of a bigger gaggle of gay guys. Guys who were just experimenting and finding themselves ... and who thought it'd be funny as fuck and their good right to fancy Charlie's father substitute Paddy. Charlie didn't find that shit funny at all, but kids can be so cruel. (I also bet like some were like "Ohhh, he's from the North and he's kinda badass, do you think he's an ex-Provo?" because these boys are pulling a Michelle from Derry Girls. And saying "He's a Prod from Derry" has zero effect, because then it's "Oh my god, that means he doesn't got all that repression! I bet he's a real Casanova!" at which point Charlie was ready to either eat the Abrakebabra tray himself or shove it down someone else's throat.)

However, Charlie's boyfriend JJ never participated in that tomfoolery. Because he was a clever young man, who knew if he kept it to himself, he could date Charlie, partially to get closer to that hunk of man. Enjoyed it very much whenever he was with Charlie and Co. and Paddy was around.

However, JJ overall didn't feel like Ireland was a great place to live and wanted more opportunities, so like many young Irishman, he went away to America. And before he left, he did the kind thing of breaking up with Charlie ... and also the not so kind thing of telling him the truth in regards to Paddy. Rough breakup.

JJ gets to America, things don't really turn out as they are ought to be and America has more or less just the same problems he wanted to escape, be it in a different costume. Poor JJ falls in with the Mob to get by and after seven or eight years, he is like "Hey. I am not gonna snitch on you, I am not gonna cause trouble, but I just wanna go home. Could you arrange something for me?"

And his boss, a young man called Alfred Jones, is like "Hmm, sure! I think I know someone you could work for, someone to keep eyes on you and who takes care for you in Dublin! Harry O'Connel's the name!"

And JJ does think. Hey, that's the name of Charlie's childhood friend. Even the surname is spelled that weird way ... But he shrugs it off, because maybe someone just left an L off the end and there have to be plenty of Harry O'Connell's in Ireland.

And Harry thinks the same when Al talks to him about an Irish guy called Jacob Johnson, like yeah yeah sure. Fork found in kitchen situation.

And then JJ arrives back in Dublin, goes to the office after some preliminary meetings with other subordinates or so, walks into Harry's office ... and Harry's face is not one that you forget. Not much has changed since puberty is through. And thusly Harry also learns that he has hired Charlie's ex as a new subordinate.

So poor JJ, comes home from his failed American Dream, learns that his ex's childhood friend is a mobster and THEN learns that the same holds true for said ex and has always been the case for the middle-aged guy he fancied.

JJ has learnt a lot about himself since he went away, especially about his priorities in life, so he now also realizes that Paddy was just some embarassing Teenage infatuation and nothing genuine at all. Not to mention that he may have a soft spot for Charlie still, but no old spark that is still alive. Charlie does make a bit of an ass of himself for wishing it was the case and being thoroughly disappointed when he gets mercilessly roasted by JJ and not even a little bit fancied. Sir, you are getting steady now, you don't NEED your ex-boyfriend for approval.

That's Jacob Johnson! Poor lad, deserved better :/

#another one from the friend group is Shane Gray who later came out as bi and has a girlfriend these days #his ma is called Daisy and had a fling with Paddy when he was a young rake always looking for the ride. Broke her bed! #She still teased him for it a decade later and they did have another fling while Shane also fancied him. Oh well! #also Charlie's other named Ex also has an America connection. Two nickels! #beablabbers #storie nostre #charlie #jj #harry #paddy #al #also by the time Charlie had that friendgroup he DID know that Paddy was a mobster ... #and he wouldn't have told them anyways bc that is between him and harry but fucking damn wouldn't it have not deterred them #if anything. if the prospects of an ex-rebel already gave them the horn then mobster is on the cards as well #i bet there were some fuckers in here where he could have been a goddamn Loyalist and they would have found it hot #chesca

i’m ngl that one scene from babylon where the director grabs nellie’s face and forces her to spit her gum out does make me feel Things

#is this hornyposting idk will probably delete when I have had more than two hours of sleep oops #has anybody giffed this moment #for no reason at all #nellie laroy is a sub I said what I said #an absolutely bratty sub but a sub nonetheless #thinking about the Margot interview where she was like ‘I knew Diego was the perfect manny #because when he said ‘shut the fuck up’ I shut the fuck UP. and Nellie only responds to people who can do that’ #I’m paraphrasing but it was something like that #and her bi awakening with lady fay. the Margot interview again where she was like #‘nellie was just so discombobulated because this woman took control of her sexually in front of all these people #and she’s on this giddy high from it’ #margot really read the script and said oh wow this character is for sure a sub #she really is so Character I’m normal about her #I may be the only person in the world who thinks about Nellie laroy babylon (2023) but by god am I gonna talk about her #I could’ve fucked with a Nellie/director lesbian subplot at some point #lady fay/nellie should be endgame but it would’ve been fun to have those two because they had good chemistry #the way the director was always boosting her up before a shot and nellie yelling at the sound guy ‘I ONLY LISTEN TO MY DIRECTOR’ #her ignoring the sound guy when he instructs her to do something but when her director tells her to do the exact same thing #Nellie does what she’s told. and also them both being women in the industry surrounded by men? could’ve been a good subplot #hell nellie could be poly

Yearning for another fandom historical event that makes me feel the way I felt when they confirmed Tracer was a lesbian. Please...it was so triumphant

#parker says things #look I know P5T had bi Joker BUT I NEED HIM KISSING SOMEONE LIKE TRACER DID #I know he's fruity we all know it but in a fandom so predominantly dudebro despite the creators being pretty split demographic wise #nothing would bring me greater joy than him smooching a boy even if it's not my ship #do y'all remember Tracer kissing Emily #i was barely even in OW fandom at that point in time and yet I remember the exact day it happened #'she's ours now' #I think it's calmed down since then or maybe the reaction to Pharah was more chill bc we kinda...could tell with her #BUT STILL #pls I need every company to make the faces of their franchises LGBT+ #Sega unintentionally makes Sonic feel gay since he's not allowed to express long term romantic interest in female characters #where's the Shadow and Sonic makeout scene Sega #Let's have Aerith and Tifa kiss too I've been wanting that for 20 years #throwback to nearly every bi option in FE3H being from Adrestria #why did they do that #I think casual confirmation of queerness is as important as slow burn queer romances and I just am nostalgic for the euphoria of lesbian Tr #*Tracer #OKAY THAT'S ALL wow I'm ranting #can you tell it's the home of phobic family dinner holiday today

shoutout to utena tenjou for being lgbt all at once!!!!!

#bolo liveblogs #people have been debating if she's bi or a lesbian since Forever and trans interpretations of her aren't uncommon #considering her whole gender situation. the g is less obvious but I could make it work I know
