hey who are these stardom cuties?? tell me about that?

lol which one?? All of them?? There are so many! But I can talk about some of the ones I posted.

But first, an important detail. In general, it's really weird to talk about real people, their possible personalities, real life ships or w/e... But wrestling is WEIRD and is a strange blend of reality and character by design. Like Turbo Reality TV. Atop that, Joshi wrestling is, by many accounts, a kinda hiding place for queer identities. Atop that, at least from what I've seen in Stardom, there is some Takarazuka Revue gender play energy (down to a princely girl who comes to the ring with a rose which she gives to a girl in the crowd) and atop that, wrestlers, regardless of their actual orientation, play around the edges of same sex romance and love. This shit is loaded and messy, but also intentional.

So when i talk about this, I am talking from as much "character" as I can, even though there is a nebulous but non-zero amount of overlap between "character" and "real life". Speculating about real life stuff in public is not something I'd do lightly, and not here. But I WIIIILL talk like this is a tumblr post talking about my favorite new HBO Prestige Drama--

(full post will be n cohost it's a lot lol)
