zorascreation: gowns: josé julio sarria, gay latino who ran for public office in 1961 - many many years before harvey milk he ran for the san francisco board of supervisors and almost won by default, until people noticed there was a gay man running and immediately submitted everyone possible for the position. he didn’t win, but he still got 6000 votes, which shocked conservatives he was also a drag queen popular at many of the balls at the time…and he still does it today (lookin good for a guy in his late 80s)! It’s so funny how White “Queerstorians” conveniently never tell us about this beautiful querido right here. <3

Feminist Frequency - Tropes vs. Women: #1 The Manic Pixie Dream Girl

This is great and all but Clementine is not an MPDG. Not in any way shape or form at all even a little at all. She is actually the antithesis of an MPDG. Blatantly states her intention is not to ever be that, and makes it clear she is NOT going to fuck with Joel if that’s his bag.

“Too many guys think I’m a concept, or I complete them, or I’m gonna make them alive. But I’m just a fucked-up girl who’s lookin’ for my own peace of mind; don’t assign me yours.”

So. That.

Sawry that I’m not sawry.
