Also, I find it hilarious when ‘queer’ and ‘same-sex’ are used interchangeably. The spectrum has always been there but people have just about learned about it.
you missed SOTY (STUDENT OF THE YEAR)
I just love the fact that we laugh at KANTA BEN and not with her.
3:03 Ironic how Govinda movies had not so subtle queer phobia while he’s excelled at drag. That math doesn’t add up.
ngl i still think that govinda could make excellent queer representation. as a child i always thought that why doesnt anyone question his queerness
Moral of the Story: Everyone is queer in my imagination
5:00 Again, laughing at her and not with her. The exorcism scene still cracks me up because the peacock feather crowd is still around us lol
So happy to see a new episode in the series. Y’all are doing a great job 👏🏽
since childhood. i had this question that whenever two male leads have friendship and we get that it can turn into a romance our parents often convey it as they can like each other as friends. Even when rishi kapoor played a homosexual character, people just take it as fun and think that it is a typical gay behaviour. Its great that Indian movies started shaping characters in a way to show that queer ppl are normal ppl too, but most of the queer representation in main stream movies still plays it as a joke. I think there should be collective efforts to try to make mainstream movies showing the wide spectrum of the LGBTQ+ community showing how the community isn't only about 'Gay' or 'Lesbian'. Main stream content should normalize queer representation for more awareness of the community.
1:02 Angry young man this, Angry young man that but when are we going to talk about Amitabh Bachchan in his Softboi Era?
More Silsila and Kabhi Kabhi please
3:03 I do give Bobby Darling some grace and love them especially the kind of comments I can’t even fathom dealing with. Suresh Menon on the other hand has just been plain annoying in those depictions.
0:28 The bi panic they caused should be studied
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Stop spamming 💀💀
Hum homosocial society hai inhone male bonding ko queerness se jod diya male friends can hug,kiss and hold hands it's connection between two people
6:21 CANON is not just a brand of camera
Is this form of bromance / friendship accepted in India's society or is just a fictional trope?
I personaly like when story about bounding isnt just limited by romance and sex, and familiar obligation.
i think its much easier for girls to live this than guys. ive seen guys being called gay for being too close or holding hands platonically
@@arunimaverma8130 yeah, unfortunally.
Impeccable take as a whole though
One additional thing I’d like to mention is that there’s an over representation of gay men and trans women in media. We hardly see transmasc, non-binary or sapphic love (that’s not canon).
Bisexuality is also very underrepresented in Indian media.
@@afiamahmood1313 Simultaneously underrepresented and misrepresented
i cant think of any sapphic couples except badhai do
@@arunimaverma8130 u should check out 'margerita with a straw', it has bi representation of the female lead(im sorry for the spelling error:))
India is quite unique when it comes to bromance and friendship among men. I hope we do not dilute this with lust and queerness and loose it's essence
Best friends of men have always been men and of women been women.
Yaari has a different meaning when spoken amongst friends of either sexes and when lovers speak of opposite sexes.
If you still fail to understand "I love you" when said by a Father to his daughter of any age has a different meaning and it has a different meaning amongst husband and wife.
This is the era of normalizing mental sicknesses.
But this era of "dumb ages" would also go.
Camaraderie among men has been turned to queerness. Waah re waah 😮
Umm...... Dostana was not a bromance
Can you please make a video on toxic women's friendship?
Jai Veeru or relationship between Ram Charan and NTR Jr almost looks homoerotic. Bollywood is obsessed with male bonding
Setiously Swaddle? Defending Dostana with the age old garbage argument? 😢
This girl is neven met a boy then. She finds everything queer😵💫
no broader sociohistorical context given
👍
Yeah the dosti/brothers only forever interpretation is so stale and boring 😅
I am 32 and my best friends from school & college are still my best friends not because we are sexually attracted to each other...my friends call my parent Aai & Baba and I call my friends parent Aai & Baba because we are very close to each other almost like brothers....I have been to both of their weddings & helped arrange them....both my friends helped me during my struggles in my academic life because they were simply more talented than me & effectively more successful in their academic lives...the fact that all you want to see brotherhood as sexhood is nothing but "Havas ki bhook"....I understand that the world is a challenge for the people who are gay....but at least don't ruin innocent friendship in your quest for romance...this desperation of turning everyone & everything into a sexual relationships is a big reason why the saying "Ek ladka aur ladki kabhi dost nahi ho sakte" when infact a girl & a boy can be very good friends without any romantic attachment
Bromance is the most toxic relationship
???
Wtf, why reduce everything to LGTV terminologies?
Why can't I just love my friend like a brother. You may noy have had one, but I have and it's not something that you LGTVs wouldn't understand.
bro cant even hate right. lgbtq is underrepresented so they find means to relate stories to themselves. these are all individual views and do NOT negate regular male friendships. One can interpret these movies any way they like based on their own preferences
lgbt people and their delusions , yall get mad when hinted queerness is reduced to "they are just friends" by people but defending doing the opposite ?@@arunimaverma8130
Not Shocked this Crap Channel is from Mumbai
Total wokism....😌😌
