Sexuali-tea

Hello, hello. This week Lysa and special special guest Dana discuss queerness in the Thor franchise (mostly the films but also the comics). This is the first part of a two-parter episode, both of which were recorded before Avengers: Endgame came out, so there are no spoilers for that. The second part will be out on the regular schedule 21st of May, but if you want to listen to the full episode now, subscribe to my Gay-treon for just $3 a month!  Spoilers for all the Thor, Captain America, and Avengers franchises (including Infinity War but not Endgame). Please heed the content warnings. CW for: mentions of abuse and child abuse, incest, genocide, sexual violence against women (brief mention), colonialism, Hitler and WWII, suicide and depression. Dana mistakenly identifies Agent Sitwell (played by Maximiliano Hernández) as white and I didn’t correct her, so I’m correcting that now. Kenneth Burke is the person who came up with the “dignified homosexual/bad queer” binary and you can read about it here: http://se
