probably my favorite thing abt queer eye is when jonathan just says whatever the hell words he wants in whatever order and snaps his fingers and then somehow i’m still like babe… i GET IT
The reason Queer Eye is so influential is partly because there’s no other show like it. No one’s going to write a gay Muslim. No one’s going to write a super feminine and flamboyant guy with long hair who wears all types of clothing without him being a punchline at best. The reason this show resonates so much with people is because they can find a piece of themselves in every one of the Fab Five, and in a good way. The show portrays gays being touchy feely friends with big hearts who just want to help people, and that’s kind of spectacular.
we’re watching the new season of queer eye and my dad is actually crying over the ep with the trans dude, like he’s talking about his top surgery and my dad is in tears going “when you sculpt marble the sculpture is already inside, you’re just getting rid of what isn’t part of it! he’s just getting rid of what isn’t part of him!”
so from my oldass 70 year old dad to all my trans followers, y’all are marble sculptures and you’re perfect
