rpanons | Found the token ace

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

As a lesbian who is sick of the tragedy porn and the predatory lesbian tropes: no. Rose was happy with Greg because he didn't put her on a pedestal and it was independent of his sex. He could be a woman in an AU and it'd still work. Pearl's issues stem from her own lack of self-confidence and need to be validated by others around her, but especially Rose. No, she's not 100% over it, but that kind of shit takes a long-ass time and it's been a relatively short time compared to a Gem's lifespan.

The negative and unhealthy themes you're talking about, by the way? Were worked out via communication. They weren't brushed over and honestly? We need that. No relationship is flawless. Showing that communication can help solve things is a great thing because it's not all roses and rainbows in any relationship and there needs to be more, "Okay, you fucked up and betrayed their trust, now what? Wait for them to initiate communication. Don't push it, give them their space."

As another lesbian: thumbs up to this post.

these are all true points.

i guess i didn't consider these parallels because these conflicts ended with intimate friendship rather than romance, whereas ruby and sapphire remain to be in a constant, long-term relationship.

just because the gay shows up in short, explosive bursts doesn't mean it's any less valid than a steady gay.
