(I was a bit inspired by tarajenkins post. Not trying to take anything. Just fighting along side.)
To the Steven Universe fandom:
Seriously? You guys need to stop. This fandom is bad and a lot of us know it. So why don’t you all get off your butts and do something about it.
This show wasn’t made for you to fight over who’s sexuality is more dominate than the other. This show was made to question and decipher, but not to claim one’s findings to be better than someone else’s.
This show is about love. It’s about teaching kids and adults alike that no matter who you are, you matter. Steven Universe teaches that we all have problems. No one is perfect. But we’re here to help each other through it.
So get off your high horse and take the show for what it truly is; a revolutionary part of modern entertainment that should be bringing people closer together, not tearing us apart.
To the people in this fandom trying to help and keep things together:
Thank you for what you’ve done. You saw there was a problem and you tried your best to fix it. You guys are probably the only good part of the fandom.
Thank you, Kaidra.
There were people in this fandom supporting harassment of an artist for supposedly drawing Rose Quartz skinny, among other things. This artist’s entire life was laid out as “receipts”. They attempted suicide. This bullying and abuse from hate bloggers has to STOP.
I hope every goddamn one of the ones responsible are tracked down by the courts and given a badly-needed dose of reality.
*Female character expresses romantic/sexual interest in more than one gender*
“If you think they are anything but lesbian you’re homophobic.”
jfc it keeps happening
You mean the Life is Strange fandom in reaction to anything but Pricefield?
I mean how some bad eggs in the LiS fandom will call you lesbophobic for pointing out Max can have romantic interest with Warren or Chloe. Or mention the fact while Chloe obviously has a strong romantic feelings for Rachel, she mentioned boy toys in her past.
Steven universe too. People treating Greg like his only purpose was to make children, Rose didn’t really love him. Christ that’s more fucked up when you consider who Greg and Steven are based on Rebecca Sugar’s father and brother.
Same for Korra and Asami. They had sexual and romantic attraction to male and female. Creators even outright stated they were BISEXUAL. Haha nope you’re homophobic if you say that! He was just a phase!
Shit another one that hits me a bit harder is Vidalia and Amethyst in Steven Universe. Vidalia has had confirmed 2 male partners, and is currently married to one. Could she be bi or pan? Yeah, sure. To stretch that to there’s no way she could love Fishtail and only uses him for the welfare of her kids (Deja fucking vu) and is in secret lesbians with Amethyst, though? Point out any of that (and that cheating is gross) and yeah, you guessed it, you’re a lesbophobe.
Amethyst is my favorite gem. I play her as asexual as a mirror to myself. So you can imagine how I must of felt to be told that platonic relationships were boring, and not REAL like a true romantic one.
Now imagine being bi or pan or any other invisible sexuality with people policing shit so black and white its just as suffocating as the opposite side of the spectrum.
