They’re all, “YES, PLEASE, SOMEONE WRITE THIS!” variety but no one actually writes it.
For all those little problems girl/girl lovers have to deal with in fandom. Ask us anything! Also, we accept text submissions!
Femslasher Problem #101 - When the two female leads are friends, and occasionally (or constantly) go out in leather male drag - and yet they’re both the subject of a heterosexual love triangle and never get together.
Femslasher Problem #100 - Putting up with these doody swirl gradient backgrounds!!
THIS IS OUR 100TH POST, EVERYONE! We couldn’t have made it as far as we have without your submissions and support. :) Here’s hoping we make it to 200!
Femslasher Problem #99 - The love of the character’s life, in the text canon, is a woman. When the hollywood movie is made, her love interest doesn’t even exist and she’s dating multiple men.
Femslasher Problem #97 - When people call femslash pairings “crack” and “unrealistic” and claim there is WAY more evidence for m/m pairings in canon.
Femslasher Problem #96 - Yuri manga where they all, or at least one of them, dies at the end. It’s like a cliché at this point. A bad one.
Femslasher Problem #95 - When your f/f ships seem to get pushed in canon… in a way that renders at least one of them OOC and negates their actual character conflicts.
Femslasher Problem #94 - When the male gaze is so pervasive that even in-universe, the lesbian characters draw creepy remarks and wolf-whistles. All in the name of “comedy,” of course.
Femslasher Problem #93 - When a femslash pairing seems mostly if not exclusively to be shipped as “leftovers” to a m/m pairing. Never mind that the girls have much more depth and chemistry in their relationship than the boys…
Femslasher Problem #92 - Fandom has mostly women who all have very cute friendships, but everyone spends their time pairing them with the only two or three dudes in the whole series instead of ever pairing f/f.
Femslasher Problem #91 - “Well, they’re single-gender aliens that just happen to look like hot chicks. So no, they’re not actually lesbian.”
Femslasher Problems #90 - When the powers that be don’t even have the heart to give the sole lesbian character someone to pair off with, when all the other girls are in solid het relationships.
Femslasher Problem #89 - When lesbian couples on TV don’t get to do much more than hold hands.
Sure, that’s what fanfic is for, but it’s still disappointing…
Femslasher Problem #88 - Fans wringing their hands over a girl choosing one love interest over another… both of whom are dudes, of course. The emotionally significant relationships she’s had with women never cross anyone’s mind.
