I think I was really marked by everything surrounding the Once Upon A Time show. 😂

The queerbaiting, the cast infighting..

Every time I see cast members supportive of each other I'm relieved. Makes me super happy. 🥰

Especially when the characters of said cast members are shipped..

“Killer Queen” is about a high-class call girl. Katy Perry based her persona, perfume, and empowerment anthem on it—without catching the subtext. This isn’t just irony. It’s industrial-grade obliviousness.

Katy Perry’s ‘Swish Swish’: Killer Queen, Clueless Pop Star

In “Swish Swish” (2017), Katy Perry calls herself “a courtside killer queen.” “Killer Queen” is the name of one of the perfumes that Perry shills and the Queen song that inspired her to pursue show…

Art is one focus of @prismnpen this week, from the enduring power of #queer romance, to the musings of an #LGBTQ artist who identifies as #nonbinary and says you can too.

Also, is #queerbaiting still a useful term? And (in a separate story) was #KatyPerry queerbaiting at the #VMAs?

Traditionally #queerbaiting has been a marketing tactic. It had to do with the creators and marketers of a text providing cues that are familiar to queer viewers but can be missed by everyone else.

The Appropriation of ‘Queerbaiting’: Where Do We Go From Here?

The discourse around “queerbaiting” (i.e., whether a work is using a queer “aesthetic” to attract queer fans without ever intending to validate such identities ) has been going through a bit of a…

当创作者把角色关系刻画得明显有酷儿倾向却强调「不祂们是直人/是好友关系」,读者能意识到这是 #queerbaiting 而表达不满;

当创作者把角色刻画得明显有谱系倾向却强调「不祂是neurotypical」,读者却对此赞赏有加

我觉得这不是很OK。

我不是说「作者必须要承认读者对角色的解读」,而是作者强硬地决断「角色就是〇〇样子」而非强调「在我最初设计角色时,我的构想是〇〇样子」不是很OK。

读者和作者拥有同等和平等(如果不是前者更甚)的对作品诠释的权力。

Es gibt Nachschlag: Einer unserer Infoposts hat's nicht in den Haupt-Pridemonth Juni geschafft. Deshalb posten wir ihn einfach in einem der elf anderen Pridemonths!

Heute geht's um Queer Coded Villains und Queerbaiting.

Beide Begriffe beziehen sich auf erzählende Werke, vor allem auf Filme und Fernsehen. Queer Coded Villains sind Schurk*innen, die mal mehr und mal weniger offensichtliche queere Signale aussenden. (1/5)
