Reasons you should be watching Yellowjackets as a lesbian:
Let’s start with the obvious, shall we, the canon lesbian ship (VanTaissa). Which includes a masc/butch lesbian and a lesbian of color! Like we love to see the representation! Their relationship also feels authentic in a way rarely seen in media. Their scenes really shine with the underlying playfulness of young, first love.
Tumblr media
Did I mention they’re played by an openly nonbinary lesbian actor and a queer actress in the 1996 timeline and Taissa in 2021 is played by another queer actress! And the cast has been allowed a lot of involvement in making their characters stories even more authentic (though the show runners and writers already do an amazing job).

Speaking of their story, one of my favorite things about the show is that their relationship and queerness isn’t treated as an obstacle to overcome, as it is many times in media. In fact, relationship is really a source of joy and strength for both characters when they’re stranded in the wilderness. Also, it should be noted that both of the lesbian characters have well developed storylines and motivations beyond their relationship.
And in 2021 we learn that Taissa grew up to have a beautiful family with her wife (who isn’t Van) and get to watch her campaign for state senate as an out lesbian. Enter the internal conflict of wanting to root for Taissa’s marriage in 2021 while simultaneously wanting a decades spanning love story for Van and Taissa.
On the topic of Van, she’s one of the best representations of masc/gender nonconforming lesbians I’ve seen in my lifetime. The show allows her to be sweet and soft and emotionally vulnerable in a way that masc/butch lesbians are rarely allowed to be on screen. (I could go on about what that portrayal personally meant to me, but that’s a whole other thread)
Tumblr media
However, the show’s overarching queerness and exploration of lesbian identity goes far beyond the canon relationships. Jackie and Shauna are two best friends on the show who have an underlying (and very obvious) romantic tension to their friendship complete with longing glances and homoromantic friendship breakups.
Tumblr media
Let me put it this way, if you even remotely liked Jennifer’s Body, you will be head over heals for JackieShauna. And don’t even get me started on the visceral portrayal of Jackie’s comphet in the pilot (or do if you want a dissertation). And there’s also queer coding in so many other characters (stares at Lottie and her purple laced docs and Nat and her everything).
Also, I cannot stress enough how incredible this show is even beyond it’s queer elements! Like from the 90s vibes to the incredible writing to beautiful cinematography, it’s worth the watch. Like it’s a riveting psychological horror mystery that explores the brutalities of girlhood with heart and humor.
Did I mention Showtime renewed through season 3 before we even got a trailer for season 2, so we’re guaranteed at least two more seasons! (Not to mention Showtime has a long history of supporting lesbian and queer narratives)

I hate feeling like the only person on this fandom so I'm going to recommend a free lesbian horror otome cooler than the sun called Monster Sweethearts
Tumblr media
It's an indie game with a lesbian protagonist in denial who ends up coming to terms with her lesbianism and dating one of five monsters, from a werewolf farmer butch to a rich vampire femme to a whatever the fuck this is
Tumblr media
Each route is interesting in its own way and all of them are more or less half horror so there is some angst and danger and drama too
There are almost no men, the dialogues are funny and sweet and all of the romanceable characters have deep personalities
Both the main character and the setting itself have lore you must unravel one route at the time until you discover the whole truth and it's actually enticing and even has an extra secret route once you do all the other routes and get every good and bad ending
And if you want more prove, I feel so hard for the vampire lady that I quite literally covered my entire bedroom on screenshots of her just to be able to see her every time I want because she's just so pretty and I need her so badly
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so please play Monster Sweethearts you owe yourself this and I need someone in order to scream together about it
There is a Guillermo del Toro lesbian look at this beautiful fish

Circular Lesbian Pride Icons
Just to make it clear that yes, I am aware of and do respect that they are both canon lesbians. My previous bi pride icon set of my mains was absolutely not intended to be read as lesbian erasure.
You might also notice a pattern with these ones;
Default Outfit
Queer Establishing Moment
Badass Alt Costume
Please like or reblog if using. Credit not required but is appreciated.

Just started reading Senpai, Does It Taste Good? Which, of course, is about lesbians and cooking.
Tumblr media
Miho and Mori are two girls that each have eating issues and discover comfort in each other. Miho loves cooking but is very insecure about eating in front of others. Mori can't cook but enjoys learning from Miho. I can't say more about her issues because spoilers. So far, it is super cute and both are canon sapphics.
CW: the manga does have panels showing eating apps that count calories!

I see nowhere NEAR enough Buddy and Vespa artwork out there, so even though I don’t have the energy nor time for anything finished here’s my contribution to the very limited fanart collection of my favorite irradiated lesbians

I think one of the reasons the taivan’s reunion is going to be so emotional to watch, is because we never get this… like it’s so unprecedented to have a canon lesbian couple where both of them survive, like we’re used to watching tragic death scenes, we’re not used to reunions. like it’s so rare & special that we finally get to have this and that, in and of itself, is emotional. but it’s also an entirely new type of story to emotionally process. like to watch two characters who are so in love drift apart is jarring in a way we haven’t experienced and then, we’re watching them reunite under such intense circumstances. like we so rarely get to see such complex and nuanced lesbian love stories get to play out on screen, it’s honestly going to be a lot to watch.
