I thought this drama was a drama about LGBTQ sexual minorities, but after watching it, I found out that it turned out to be a drama about sexual minorities with biological males. I didn't see the role of lesbian, nor did I see the role of female transgender, and the hosts and scoring judges on the stage were all biological men. Let's put this aside for now.
As a person whose physical and psychological identity is also a woman, the most uncomfortable thing in the film is: the multiple themes of the dance, the host constantly emphasizes that to be a real woman, you must have perfect hair, makeup, clothing, and face. You have to be perfect Plump breasts and buttocks, you have to scratch your head and show your curves when you walk, only in this way you are a real woman. What's even more ironic is that the host is gay??♀️??♀️??♀️Aren't the above mentioned standard male coagulation. However, we women are not like this. We don’t need perfect hair, makeup, clothing and looks. We don’t need plump breasts and buttocks. We don’t need to twist our waists to walk. We don’t need to pursue a beautiful appearance. what. When Blanca first went to the prom, she was wearing an out of place dress, short haircut, no sky-high heels, and no delicate makeup. I thought the screenwriter was going to describe something different, but the result was the same as before. The female stereotype went away, blanca was ridiculed by the sexual minorities present, she was attracted by Elektra with her gorgeous appearance and later expressed her yearning for the E state.
In the play, several male-trans female characters have repeatedly expressed their desire to be a real woman, and what they dislike and can't bear the most is their male sex organs. The construction of a male-dominated society is based on the male phallus, taking the male group with a phallus as the primary and dominant social group, and taking the biological female without a phallus as the second sex or instrumental role in society. Gender requirements are also based on this. Men trans women can't stand their sexual organs, but it cannot be ruled out that what they actually hate is the social discipline and demands brought to them by their sexual organs.
The dance party is a dream home created by these sexual minorities for themselves. Under the bright lights and colorful music and the gaze of everyone, the men and women show their inner identity. But rejecting society's discipline on biological males does not mean that embracing another discipline on biological females will lead to freedom. The abyss of unfreedom and suffering at this end is even greater. Men and women want to be recognized as women, and we women are trying to be recognized as "human beings" by society.
