BRIDGERTON UNPOPULAR OPINION

I like they made Francesca lesbian instead of Eloise, imo they break the stereotypes this way. 

In one hand they show that a “feminine” girl (I mean it under the hegemonic idea of feminine and masculine) can be a lesbian. Thats important because there’s A LOT of people who still believe that a lesbian has to be a women dressed as a boy, like sexuality had anything to do with anything else besides sexual preferences. Sexuality it’s not a mold of personality and I appreciate every representation of that we can get. 

On the other hand, by not no making Eloise a lesbian they also break the stereotype that EVERY feminist women it’s a lesbian, like feminism was about hating man and hence a feminist shouldn’t be attracted to men. I kinda feel making El a lesbian could lead to that stereotype and downplay her political believes, like her denial to fit into society was about her dislike of men and not about her dislike of a whole system were women are given so little opportunities.

There’s a lots of people who still see thing that way, reducing lesbians to male wanna be and feminists to man hater, like everything had to be about men in some way, so I highly appreciate the representation of lesbian and feminist women outside that stereotypes.  

“You're my favorite, 100%. And I know that the others don't mind because they know how much I love you.”

LOL "late night ramblings" might be a more accurate description than "wise words". 😅

Here's a snippet from Born To Die (my Theloise Hunger Games AU)!

One panic attack and two bottles of an unknown--but undoubtedly alcoholic--drink later, Anthony had calmed down considerably. (In all fairness, the sight of one’s sister on a train ride to near-certain death was enough reason to get thoroughly inebriated.) Theo watched as Anthony poured himself a third drink.
