(no subject)
I'm having a crap day. And on days like today I can't stand the fact that same-sex couples are practically nonexistent in pop culture.
Actually, it always annoys me that there are rarely same-sex couples in movies, books, tv-shows - unless it's a part of the (usually bad) plot. But on crap days I watch music videos, and my heart aches cause I think to myself "I wish life was like that for me" when heterosexual couples walk hand in hand on the beach, ride the ferris wheel, have a picnic. And then I think what the fuck am I thinking, I know perfectly well that life isn't like that anyway, and if it were I'd have just as big a chance as a straight person of having that sort of life.
ps - I've realised I kinda like Katy Perry. Though I have trouble admitting that cause of that one awful, awful song.
