Why isn't amyone talking about Anantham series on Zee5?
It has a gay lead! Addresses the issue of how even the moderate forward thinking parents may not be able to accept when their own child is queer. Also how it traumatizes the affected child.
Happy ending for the gays!
Just saw the trailer, it has all my fave things- banging score, complex familial relationships, intergenerational narrative, and a house in midst of all!
I didn't get the queer storyline from the trailer but if it's there then that's just cherry on top!!!! Also yes, the parent angle is interesting. Something smzs talked about too.

கற்பு/Kaṟpu (Chastity) Chastity is generally defined as the act of abstaining from extramarital or all sorts of intercourse. My views on ‘Karpu’, have been heavily influenced by the works of Periyar. In his 1942 book பெண் ஏன் அடிமையானாள்? (why were women enslaved?) Periyar tears down every social hindrance and patriarchal norm that oppresses and enslaves women. The first two essays discuss chastity and how it became a tool to oppress and control women. According to him, the word karpu has the word root ‘kal’ (to learn). If we look at it in this context, “karpenappaduvadhu solthitambamai” would simply mean ‘living up to one's words’, which contains concepts of integrity and truth. However, over the years the word karpu has been used to indicate ‘Magalir Nirai’ (virtues of women). There is no evidence to prove that the word karpu only applies to women. In the English language Chastity simply means ‘virginity’ or ‘purity’. Within this framework, the word can be applied to all genders. In Sanskrit, chastity is identified as ‘pativrata’ (loyal wifehood) and this is where the word chastity becomes a sexist term. He also criticizes the works of Thiruvalluvar as being sexist (chapters 6 & 91) and questions if women themselves had written Thirukural or other epics, they would have portrayed such sexist ideas. Chastity is an age-old toxic tradition that is still justified and glorified across different cultures. The concept of chastity has been aggrandized and a woman's worth and her character questioned if she chooses to no longer be “chaste”. Calling female bodies “pure” and “valuable” only commodifies them and thus, dehumanises them. It, for centuries, has stripped them of their expressive and sexual agency, even criminalise it. Forced chastity continues to be one of the biggest tools of oppression in modern society. While chastity can be a virtue, it must always be an independent decision irrespective of gender and not a social standard. P.S. you guessed it, they’re gay and they’re married😙✌🏽✨. #leanderscribbles#tamil#தமிழ்#tamilartist#tamilart#tamilculture#feminism#patriarchy#purityculture#gay#queer#lesbian#wlw#bisexual https://www.instagram.com/p/ChgvB5OBinF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

welcome to my hair
Anitha-witchlady
this beard of mine is like the worst kind of weeds;
the weeds that can only be trimmed
and never ever killable entirely.
this stubble of mine is like thorns:
pricking, poking, and always painful to touch.
if I touch it, were I fool enough,
it scorches like the sun itself.
please Lord deliver me from the scourge of my stubble!
my hair is just crapalicious in its texture,
disheveled no matter how much you brush it,
dandruffed all the fucking time,
and altogether just the wrong length of hair- period.
I want nothing more than to see it in a bun
or a long straight brunette mane
or in a black pony tail,
just like that Tamil school girl
from a serial I've long since forgotten.
or even curly tresses,
anything would be better than this- the wrong hair.
hair, hair, hair, fucking hair!
i know we're fucking mammals
but I just want men and women
to gaze flushed upon my shaven legs.
watch as I- like a queen- gracefully stride.
finally worthy of the meaning of my name- for once!
let me be kissed by the outside air!
let me be embraced by the wind!
let me have smooth arms to embrace the breeze!
let me have shaven legs to get cold to,
and snuggle up to my boyfriend for warmth instead.
let me have- god almighty- perpetually the pure bliss of soft unencumbered skin!
i want to be a woman;
goddamnit, body why won't you fucking let me!

literally just because my journal has been tainted by one (1) broken friendship and i feel salty about whiteness and feeling like i'm being used by white people in Academia™ to push this model minority narrative and how much google is geared towards cishet white people and because i want to feel sixteen again where the world wasn't a tender place but i could be tender in it
