The Fangirl

Now, when white pop stars with flat butts jokingly position themselves next to twerking black dancers for comparison, it’s presumably at their own expense, drawing attention to their own lack of ass. But it’s a loaded image, and the fact that the white pop stars so constantly use black women’s bodies to make that joke is an issue.

The Fangirl

Which brings me to the second risk of writing LGBT romance for a presumed straight heterosexual audience, you become much more likely to fetishize queer people. Because queer people in stories aimed at cishet people are often not reflective of queer experiences or exploring queerness, they become much more of an exotic subject for people to live out their fantasies through. They become objects usually only defined by their sexuality and physical attractiveness.

Because making out in Anne Frank’s annex is disgusting and disrespectful!! They are two very privileged caucasian Americans who have never known starvation, genocide, or physical abuse. And they are KISSING. IN ANNE FRANK’S. ATTIC. WHY IS THIS NOT A THING THAT EVERYBODY IS TALKING ABOUT???? People shat their pants when Justin Beiber wrote “hope Anne would have been a belieber” but APPLAUD JOHN GREEN FOR HAVING HIS PRIVILEGED PROTAGS SNOGGING INSIDE THE PLACE SHE SUFFERED IN???!
