::reads through the lyrics to the song::
Hmm, she makes one comment about the town being poor and provincial, a couple about wanting more out of life, and then the rest of it is the towns folk saying she’s “pretty but weird” and Gaston saying “she’s mine.”
I think this analysis stinks.
Belle: “I really want to find a town with a decent library”
The Town: “This chick so crazy, she learned to read.”
Beast: “Behold my enormous library”
Belle: “I will fuck the fur off your foreskin if you let me live here.”
Gaston: “Books are scary, burn this place to the ground”
Twitter: “Belle is the bad guy”
Well, TBF she IS really into a furry - that makes all sorts of people a bit squeamish.
He’s not a furry, he’s a monster, making Belle a monsterfucker.
Fifty years ago you could depict a romance without everyone assuming that they’re fucking.
Simpler times, it was…
unrealistic for cishet sexual people (the assumed default)
Howso? Abstinence until marriage was more normal back then, and deviations from that norm were viewed as aberrations. It’s almost the opposite today.
I guess I need to amend 50 years to 70+ years because it just dawned on me that 50 years ago was the '70s… in my mind “50 years ago” still means “1950s”…
But still.
Also, wasn’t the Beast’s curse broken by “true love’s first kiss”? So obviously they weren’t fucking because the movie ended right after their first kiss…
true, you’re right, I didn’t consider that properly in the context of the movie. i apologize.
You think you have to kiss to fuck?
It’s not impossible to do otherwise, but generally a typical progression (especially for someone’s first time) involves kissing before fucking.
There’s really no basis to assume that Belle fucked the Beast in monster form…
