A Note To Bi+ Men

Famine’s Monologue

I’ve noticed that while gays, lesbians, and bisexuals are fairly common in plays nowadays, asexuals are nowhere to be found. Thus, I created Famine, devil may care hipster who nonetheless delivers a badass monologue (slightly edited for clarity) that hopefully reassures asexual people that they are valid. 

“ Back when I was younger, it always confused the shit out of me as to why the thought of getting sexual with someone made me physically ill. I attempted to fix myself by going to various doctors, and drinking mysterious concoctions of medicines that supposedly increased sexual desire. Then one night, it occurred to me. Why the fuck was I wasting my time attempting to change a portion of myself just to please Society? So, I said screw it and let any person I was getting serious with relationship wise that sex wasn’t in the equation for me. It didn’t always work, mind you, but I finally was able to stop hating myself. Some people are going to be bigots regardless of how strenuously you attempt to educate them and there isn’t much you can do about it. But someone who truly loves you, will accept, and embrace the fact that you’re nonbinary the same way they’ll accept I happen to be a biromantic asexual.”

May Alcott Nieriker

-Very loosely the basis for Amy in Little Women, May Alcott’s illustrations for Little Women were panned by critics. After studying in Europe, her paintings were twice selected by the famous Paris Salon. 

-In addition, she wrote and published a book called, Studying Art Abroad and How to Do It Cheaply, which gave advice to aspiring American artists (particularly women) on how to learn to paint in Europe while on a budget. 

-She was praised for being a talented copyist of J.M.W.Turner, and also specialized in still life paintings. One of these still life paintings was selected by the Paris Salon in 1877.

-Unfortunately, she died shortly after giving birth to her daughter Louisa May “Lulu” Nieriker in December 1879. Lulu was raised by her aunt Louisa May Alcott until the author’s death in 1888. She was subsequently raised by her father Ernest Nieriker. 

-In 2002 there was an exhibition of her work titled “Lessons, Sketching, and dreams: May Alcott as Artist”.

Revan: Malak, we tried things your way.

Malak: No, we didn't.

Revan: I did in my head and it didn't work.

Revan is hilarious

Fulvia and Cleopatra

How the men chronicling history saw them:

-catfight over Mark Antony, Fulvia pining after Antony until she died

How they really interacted:

Fulvia: That Octavian guy is a manipulative twerp, so don’t trust him. I’m praying to Fortuna and Minerva you kick his ass into next week. It’ll make dying in exile worth it. 

Cleopatra: I’d be willing to do that for you. Don’t worry about Antyllus and Jullus. I’ll look after them. 

Fulvia: Oh, and just as a warning. Marcus snores louder than a herd of elephants.

Mark Antony: I don’t snore!

Fulvia and Cleopatra: Yes, you do!

Catfighting is Overrated

The sexist fridging of Meetra Surik to make Revan suffer has already been discussed in depth already, but the one thing no one has mentioned is that apparently Bastila Shan doesn’t get along with her and is jealous of her “special relationship” with Revan. The whole women fighting over a man is overdone, overrated, and sexist. It assumes that every woman wants/needs a man (ignoring preferring women, being asexual, being aromantic, or gasp! deciding you’re happy being single), and that all women are in competition for men. Not that this doesn’t happen in real life, but to assume that the only way women relate to each other is viewing each other as competition for “getting” a man is cliché and sexist. 

The main reason I headcanon Meetra and Bastila as BFFs is a big FU to Karpsyshyn’s sexist writing, and it’s way more complex and fascinating to have Bastila and Meetra, be BFFs who had a falling out over Meetra joining the Revanchists then to have them be another cliché catfight over a man.
