@Ymelia_ definitely ... like believe me i don't understand this article either it's hella confusing welppp

@punsandpotions @Ymelia_ as a native english speaker, I think you're right. definitely reads strangely, seems to be trying to argue that forced straight relationships are valuable and necessary for lesbian ones in this work, and that's just... uggg....

@nergdron @Ymelia_ honestly the whole article is nothing but confusing .... it's called "what phantasmagoria of the mind is": reading virginia woolfs parody of gender and it's just sooo much confusing stuff abt what gender and sex is (or really really isn't) and what virginia woolf things it is

@punsandpotions @nergdron
I'm a literature specialist so I can more easily tell what's bothering me this way
- I don't if I can translate it in a good way "un procès d'intention" "an trial of purpose" maybe, it's when you start with an idea and try to fit it by force to the text. Here the non-binary sexuality was forces to fit to the"phantasmagoria" analysis
- 2d The biographic lecture. When you explain the artistic choices by the author life. In french literature studies it's a big big no. It's artificial, and often the way to
misinterpretation. We have only clues and no certitudes about the "Why" she written this way

@Ymelia_ @nergdron very good point! that's definitely a problem with the article

@punsandpotions @nergdron hope i was clear, it's harder in english x)
