Oh gosh, I made this design for a concert tee as a gift for my sister ages ago and never actually made a shirt with it for us.
But then whilst doing laundry I found a white t-shirt (that I probably bought for this very purpose) and was like, welp, now I have to. So I printed the transfer and then cut off the sleeves because I’m me.
THAT KIND OF REVIEW IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING THAT MOVIE WOULD GET AND IT MEANS EVEN MORE COMING FROM YOU (ONE OF MY TOP GOTH LIT/MEDIA SENPAIS) I AM SO PSYCHED!
Am I the only goth who is really uncomfortable with “Hannibal” due to the horrible transmisogyny in “Silence of the Lambs”?
I think you have to consider Silence of the Lambs was written in 1988 and the knowledge the general public had about transsexuals let alone their attitude towards them was a whole different ball game than it is today. Thomas Harris, for the crassness on how the subject is treated, does a decent job of explaining that being transsexual does not make one a serial killer considering the time era.
All great works of art are products of their time and will reflect that. You learn to acknowledge without it getting in the way of your enjoyment. Just like other great works of literature reflect the racist and sexist time era they were written in but that doesn’t devalue their significance.
