excellent tears

Brandon's tears became my memory. The pale face, the bruises at the corners of his eyes, and the damage on his face were no match for a tear he tried to cover up. In Texas in 1993, gay people were burned to death. But what if it's a gender misconception? In fact, it is just a forced explanation at the height of the so-called normal human beings. The real one should be a person who thinks his soul is a boy, wants to become a man according to his own wishes, find a lover of his own, and live a normal life. Is this a wrong choice?
Because he is actually her.
Everything is wrong because he is abnormal in the eyes of others.
Disgusting, asshole, deceitful, but more importantly, he's an outlier. The so-called normal person John is morbidly insane while "punishing" Brandon self-righteously.
So all the memories are buried deep and then dug up. Brandon to female doctor: How did you know I was raped? Confused, pale, shivering. At this moment, he could not find his place. Was it raped by a man as a boy, or as a girl? The answer was dug out of his own mouth. "From the vagina" her answer made her take off all the masks in an instant. She is a girl, a woman without compromise. Her body became the most faithful evidence. But is it possible to ignore her deep cry from the soul? He wants to be a man! All the meaning of his existence comes from the lie that he is a man.
And as the representative of the power in the film, the man. Tom & John are definitely disgusting. Power becomes bullying. To the unarmed woman, the former friend, to Brandon, the only thing they can do is rape, and then shoot Brandon outright in order to obliterate the evidence. Knowing that the movie was a real event made people even more contempt for their behavior. But what saddens me the most in the whole film is a detail. As a representative of justice, after Luna's mother went to report the case, the police officer said to the fact that Brandon was raped, why should a girl be with a boy. This is just as disgusting as some experts have suggested that girls should not wear short skirts in summer because they can lead to sex crimes. Yes, disgusting. As a free man, I have the right to act, but as a protector, should I protect my rights, or shirk my responsibilities, and instead promote crime? Isn't this statement a kind of harm to the weak? Because I am weak, so I should be the target of any mercenary? Because of weakness, all faults are their own faults? That's what movies do, to confront society, to confront some of the issues that we can't help but want to avoid. What would I do when the protagonist was me? When I'm weak, the only thing I can do is swallow my tears and pretend to be strong? There is nothing more vicious than this. After hurting others, they continue to wear people's skins, do hurtful things behind their backs, wander around, and live with a laugh. In the movie, after Brandon was raped, he had to admit that it was his fault, so he was raped. This is a bow to society. I'm not normal, so it's my fault. Poor, it's my fault too. Being weak is my worst mistake.
