Emma Spectre shares the interview Emma Corrin on Fluidity, Fun, and Dressing Up to Stand Out.

Spectre reminds readers that Diana has long been linked with LGBTQ+ identity in the public consciousness, supporting the gay-rights movement years before Ronald Reagan let the word AIDS, managed to make a public utterance. The openly bisexual actor Kristen Stewart added a “somewhat sapphically inclined Diana in Pablo Larraín’s 2021 film ‘Spencer’,” writes Spectre.

Emma Corrin herself came out in a quiet way after playing a young Diana in season four of Netflix’s ‘The Crown’, adding “she/they” pronouns to their Instagram bio. Now Corrin uses “they/them” — as do Demi Lovato, Kehlani, and Halsey.

“I feel much more seen when I’m referred to as ‘they,’ but my closest friends, they will call me ‘she,’ and I don’t mind, because I know they know me,” explains Corrin to Spectre.

LOL. Spectre is really digging this interview. Actually, it’s all about being queer now that I am scanning, so have a read. No need for AOC to repeat the words.

Honestly, I thought we had made more advancements in the past 50 years on LGBTQIA+, but apparently not.

I know we are all very rattled over the anti-trans legislation in red states, but then Roe got shot down, too. AOC’s activism is very focused on Christian fascism and white nationalism in this moment. The end of our imperfect democracy is in sight — if we don’t fight this back by the 2024 election.

People I respect say “It’s do or die time,” and they are not exaggerating.

AOC is not worried about “he, she, it, they, them . . . “ in this moment. We are focused on the American Taliban increasingly riding roughshod over all of us. No disrespect intended to pronouns.

Imagine Changing the Words in Martin Luther King’s Speeches

But then, I didn’t know that woman is a bad, bad word these days and that even the beloved Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s speeches are being rewritten in queer-appropriate language, as if she never said the word “woman”.

Imagine doing that to a Martin Luther King speech — or changing the words that any person of color spoke that were of significance. Updating the person’s words so as not to offend people 20-50 years later — that’s reserved for women — as it has been historically reserved for women for 10,000 years.

I’ve never read that “two spirit people” tried to rip apart social systems. My understanding is they were most often revered as being highly special creatures, often with supernatural powers.

Silence, WOMAN!. Oh well. I’ll have to see if I can legally post a BBC series about the historical abuse of ALL women. Even Caucasian women had their teeth knocked out, so that they couldn’t speak audibly and articulately. The series is called ‘The Ascent of Women’. Forget all the great words about women. It’s European.
