I was going to write a post about how it was bad, lazy writing that hit every Dead Lesbian trope out there, and was completely inconsistent with every portrayal of physical injury in the show, but–

One look in the Clexa tag and it’s literally heartbreaking to see how lesbian and bi women are taking this. This is something that straight people will never, ever understand, and the worst part is that we’re mad at ourselves for trusting these people. Finally, everyone though, we’re being respected (hah-fucking-hah), here’s a story about us; only to be brutally reminded that if you so much as act on your feelings, if you allow yourself one moment of happiness with another woman, you’re fucking dead.

At this point, I don’t really care if there’s some Twist in the City of Light that makes this all “okay.” Fact of the matter is, at best, a bunch of straight people are using a lifetime of trauma against us and calling it entertainment, pretending it’s progressive and for us, then acting like this decision came out of the fucking void.

I am not in this fandom and I can see how hurt people are… 

Just do not do this.
