This is so gross. Like its inappropriate to reveal this to your idol. And i feel JB can read English too. So that just makes it even awful, that fans have the guts to go walking around like this in front of your faves. Because you couldn’t stop sexualizing your idols. If you think you are gonna act like this when you meet your idol, don’t even meet them. Its a form of harassment thats not meant for any public situations. Just imagine how uncomfortable they are if they can understand it. Keep that to yourself. Credit to @yujinators

tumblr now is a very weird place for kids to grow up with like ngl….. I had a tumblr from the time I was 12 onwards and like back in 2012 it wasn’t that bad just kind of cringy and fandomey but now tumblr has become a lot more political and it’s full of very polarizing opinions and 12-14 year olds are plunging headfirst into that it’s scary because these kid’s critical thinking skills and personalities arent fully developed yet, and they’re just beginning puberty which is a trying and confusing emotional stage of life… and they’re practically being FORCED into “choosing a side” in a very aggressive environment where they’re criticized for having the Wrong opinions and aren’t given a chance to learn and think for themselves and I think we all know someone our age who’s so obviously a product of Tumblr Foolishness and it’s scary to think people will be going out into the world thinking like this website does. yikes

At school i was criticized for saying i don’t hate trump. I am not gonna hate someone because we have different opinions not all people think the same its human nature to disagree​ .

saw this tweet and was reminded of when i said se hinton aint shit and that she polices how people view her characters and yall wanted to fucking doxx me so im just dropping back in to say i told you so

Okay guys, can I just say something? I am the biggest SE Hinton fan because she gave us all The Outsiders and a variety of other books and we should not be giving her hate for this, because there is a lot of hate aimed at her right now because of a series of posts. 

I can understand where she is coming from, and you would too if you read everything that she has been posting. I don’t see any of this as homophobic. From what I can see the tweets have been deleted but you can still find them on the internet. Look guys, I’ve been insulted and called out for writing a majority of straight fanfictions for the outsiders. And it’s got nothing to do with homophobia. 

Someone wrote it’d be “cute” if Johnny and Dally were together. Cute? No it wouldn’t cute. It’d be disastrous. Let’s think about it. The Outsiders was written in the mid to late 60′s, the whole book is written in that time period. People were getting shot and savagely beaten for being gay, people still are. But it was worse back then. If they were a gay couple in this time period, it wouldn’t of ever been cute. It would’ve been hard. It would’ve been constant lie after lie. 

And we are still living in a world were people are being tortured and killed for being gay, people are still feeling ashamed for being born this way. So no, Dally and Johnny being gay for each other wouldn’t be “cute” and she isn’t a monster for writing her characters to be straight. They are her characters. They are her intellectual property. I wouldn’t like it if someone wrote one of my OC into something completely different from who they are. I’d be pissed and we shouldn’t hate her for insisting they are straight. 

SE Hinton is a long term supporter of the LGBTQ+ community, she isn’t doing this to be a monstrous human. She is doing what you and I would do if someone tried to change our much beloved characters. She has said that she doesn’t mind us doing fanfiction, so sure, write slash fanfictions to your hearts content. I have. Just stop sending her messages like this. 

And by the way guys, before someone accuses me of being homophobic. I am not. I am a deeply closeted lesbian who is too afraid to come out to her own parents. But I digress.

And do we really need to describe LGBTQ+ couples as “cute”. Like really? It’s not cute. It’s what it is. It’s two people who love each other. Would you describe a straight couple as cute? Probably not. So why is it so much more cute to be in a gay relationship? Their sexuality isn’t cute. It’s normal. It’s not cute to be who you are. 

Let’s just keep this in mind, and yes, please, if you’d like to, you can unfollow me, but it is the truth.

Also to add to this, I think it’s extremely destructive when people say things like, “Dallas and Johnny HAVE to be gay”, “it’s canon that Dallas and Johnny are gay”, or “The fact that Dally loves Johnny so much totally makes him gay”

We live in a world where if a high school boy even gives a genuine hug to another guy he gets called gay. Obviously gay is not at all a bad thing (it is actually a pretty beautiful thing). However to be gay you need to be sexually or romantically attracted to your same sex. It is very harmful when people only notice sexual and romantic love and not platonic love. Boys should be able to care for one another and have love towards one another with out it being considered sexual. We are constantly stereotyping men as non emotional, cold, and strong. There is also a lot of competition between men. Boys have committed suicide because they feel like they can’t open up and let out their emotions towards their peers and other guys.

The fact that S.E. Hinton wrote about a group of guy friends who genuinely love each other and who have a soft spot in each of their hearts for each other and aren’t afraid to show it is pretty beautiful. I’m not condemning gay outsiders fan fiction, and I do think there definitely needs to be more books and stories with gay characters. However the idea of a group of tough and street-smart guys having a strong platonic love for one another is one of the things that makes The Outsiders so amazing and revolutionary. It lets boys know that it is ok to love freely and to create emotionally supportive relationships with other guys with out the fear of it being considered sexual.
