The stamina of this drama is too great. Although each episode has only 25 minutes of short and powerful, and only 6 episodes in the season, it is difficult to conceal the talent of Mae Martin under such restrictions. The overall rhythm is too fast, and it may be a big shortcoming to cut into the next scene before the audience enters the emotions. But again, there is no line in the whole show that is nonsense, and the fast pace also brings a strong emotional impact.
At the beginning of ep4, George and Mae said that they had been very obsessed with Arnie Rivers and thought he was very handsome and tall, and Mae was very sad. But when Mae met Arnie in the bar and saw his "masculine charm", he also "transfigured into a fan girl" and began to imitate Arnie's series of actions. For example, suddenly a credit card flashed in his hand from nowhere, and handsomely asked to pay for the family that he met in the restaurant. (But the credit card was rejected, George paid the bill in the end and failed to install b)
Then M asks G, if the two break up in the future, the future date will choose a male or female. G's answer is probably a man. M didn't say anything, but she entangled in taking the tranquilizer stolen in the hospital, and the scenes after that showed that M was still unable to accept her body, whether it was breasts or feminine curves, she tried to wear a lady's suspender skirt He looked at himself in the mirror, but when G returned home, he immediately closed the door and put on a T-shirt that was difficult to distinguish between his body types. All these showed M's entanglement in his own gender perception. Because G’s previous dates before meeting M are men, and have always been “straight” admiring people with strong masculine characteristics, which makes M more anxious. On the one hand, she wants to be the perfect lover in G's heart ( high school boyfriend, simple, kind, full of sperm), and on the other hand, M’s female body structure limits this effort.
In the later plot, M brought dildo and G to have sex, and G unconsciously said "i want you to cum inside me". This sentence may have become the fuse for the two later breakup. In the eyes of G, who has always been a heterosexual ideology, this is just a flirtation that enhances the atmosphere when the sentence is ml. But M doesn’t think so, because she can’t do the act of ejaculation, and because of this, it seems that some of the previous efforts were in vain. She strives to make herself more like a man and become G’s preference (culturally straight ), but deep down in her heart, she doesn't approve of these masculines (refer to M's attitude towards Kevin in ep6). Just like her evaluation of herself, "i think i'm a transgender, or non-binary..." that is, she is neither a "qualified" girl, nor can she ever be a boy, she is caught in the middle, with Embarrassingly colored, ambiguous gender.
Whether the sentence "i want you to cum inside me" is sexually provocative is worth thinking about. Except for sexual intercourse with the purpose of reproduction between the opposite sex, they are purely enjoying the pleasure of sexual intercourse to enhance feelings. In this case, as long as you reach orgasm, it doesn't really matter whether you ejaculate or not. Especially for women, stimulation and teasing between non-sexual organs can also achieve this goal, and internal ejaculation also faces the risk of unintended pregnancy, so for women, it should be something worth worrying about why they become sexy. ? Because it is primitive and natural? But in fact, in many cultures, sexual intercourse for the purpose of childbirth is civilized and pure, without the symbol of "dirty sexual desire". For example, in Japan during the Edo period, men who wanted to seek romantic love would go to Yoshiwara. Looking for a wandering girl, and the wife of the family can only look far away and not play with it, and she is a "saint" who exists in the same way as her mother. The behavior of ejaculation has always been an inexplicable sense of accomplishment and pride for men. Every ejaculation seems to have successfully climbed Mount Everest, and one of the most feared things for men must be sexual dysfunction such as impotence and premature ejaculation. And G’s friends can never leave the jokes about male genitalia and ejaculation in the conversation. From here it is not difficult to see that G has always been influenced by the social and cultural thoughts dominated by male voice, and this influence has also led to Then she would say such things unconsciously and thought it was very sexy.
Digress, let's talk about the T group. Maybe it's because of gender cognition disorder, maybe it's because the objects of love happen to be straight women, in short, they are a group of women who never stop trying to erase their femininity. Even with beautiful body curves and firm and nice breasts like M, they are always ashamed to show off. In fact, masculinity is nothing, but in the current social background of patriarchal capitalism, T is often the object of dislike-especially among the les group, it can be understood. For example, if a worker in the 19th century often went to the factory dressed as a capitalist, then this person will most likely be said to have "betrayed the proletariat." To put it simply, masculinity is OK, but you must take the essence and discard the dross.
"I like you, like your voice, like your body, like your smell, like your crazy and funny little brain, not because of gender, age, race status, and the abstract conceptual labels imposed on everyone by society, just because You are you."
