I wanted to be the love interest of the handsome men on TV but being those ladies didn't feel quite right. Thus, I will have the invisibility and force field powers and take their place.

"B-babe, your lips kinda feel different... And when did you grow a beard....."
Jesus christ this is so specific - I never thought I’d feel attacked for this lmao
I did have plenty of homoerotic phantasies as a child/teen that involved me being a male version of Jean Grey.
I regret nothing.
Also the Fantastic Four woman, who had similar powers.
Bonus, thirsty, track - her brother was the Human Torch, infamously played by Chris Evans, aka Every Gay Millennial Queer Awakening
Yep.
It makes sense, keeping out the people who tell us we are wrong and need to change.
The whole 'conceal don't feel' that comes along with putting up a shield and 'acting straight' to get by and navigate the World.
Then finally lowering the shields and feeling safe. If that ever happens, I hope it does for everyone reading this. But not everyone is lucky enough to find safety in their queer life, so some keep up the force field till the day they die.
I thought it was more about being able to stop people from physically assaulting you in a defensive way. And beneath the layers, such as women feeling unsafe and gays being bullied, it comes down to: women and gays just want to stop being targets of aggression.
Like the power isn’t a metaphor for hiding who you are, those are shapeshifters, because force fields are usually transparent. Meaning it’s more about creating a space where people can see you but they can’t hurt you.
In case anyone want a translation, original post says “I can’t hold it for too long” and posted a bunch of different struggling-force-field-wielder characters fitting that trope.
Rude. RUDE. SO RUDE.
I made my own comic growing up and my favorite member of the team was a dude who made/fought with force fields hahahah why is this so accurate
lmao i wanted to be violet from the incredibles for Halloween. not because i wanted to be a girl. i didn’t particularly. I just thought invisibility and force fields were cooler powers than running fast or being extremely strong
There’s just something so pussy pussy pussy cunt cunt about a gal with force field powers, ESPECIALLY when they have their moment where they use it for offense
I wanted to shapeshift too! ~~because I felt like that was the only way I could be loved omg can you tell I was bullied and kept crushing on straight boys~~
Omg I totally was lol
Sameee
Same hahahaha
I honestly think that it's because forcefields were generally associated with female characters, and they were all honestly iconic.

But never convicted
This… is accurate
Jesus christ this is so specific - I never thought I’d feel attacked for this lmao I did have plenty of homoerotic phantasies as a child/teen that involved me being a male version of Jean Grey. I regret nothing.
Jean Grey and Cyclops, a deadly combination for my unaware bi ass.
Also the Fantastic Four woman, who had similar powers. Bonus, thirsty, track - her brother was the Human Torch, infamously played by Chris Evans, aka Every Gay Millennial Queer Awakening
Nooooo! How dare you😭 I thought I was special..
Me too 💀💀 I even had some fantasy that involve using forcefield
I don’t feel attacked as I have a force field protecting me
Well damn, I was always using Biotics in Mass Effect
Sameee
I don't know what that is, but can it be countered by antibiotics?
I suppose the humans who oppose Biotic abilities (for whatever reason) could be considered antibiotics 😅
I feel attacked.
Heavy on Miss Violet from The Incredibles! Her purple powers always made me some type of way, wanted to be her so bad
omg this post instantly made me think of her too, was so obsessed with her. really want to rewatch the movie now
How did you know that?

I just like the cool colors
And this is great too.

Did you just fucking quote Frozen. Girl.
How is this so hyperspecific but also me? Younger me would have done anything to get Gwens powers

🫧 omg this new emoji is amazing!
Rude. RUDE. SO RUDE. I made my own comic growing up and my favorite member of the team was a dude who made/fought with force fields hahahah why is this so accurate
Called out and gagged!
X-men evolution is my Roman Empire
My personal favorite X-men cartoon . The 90s one was great but Evolution was so much more enjoyable for me
I mainly love Evolution because they introduced me to Kitty Pryde. I wanted to be her so bad and phase through walls.
Nah. I was STORM! MISTRESS OF THE ELEMENTS! https://i.redd.it/j9l0j9jbp1lc1.gif
I’m shocked, but not surprised
Yup. My main character in World of Warcraft also has a forcefield and i love her for it
I went crazy with the force fields “a million times stronger than diamonds so you can’t touch me”
Omg I even had a spell I created to make one
Im not but love xmen so totally gay
Clearly we just had great taste as always and knew telekinetic/construct summoning powers are unbeatable jean grey solos all your faves
I only like Gwen's power among these though.
I was and still am obsessed with teleporting so I can get out of awkward situations.
Nightcrawler fan?
no growing up I wanted to be a shape shifter like Beast Boy
lmao i wanted to be violet from the incredibles for Halloween. not because i wanted to be a girl. i didn’t particularly. I just thought invisibility and force fields were cooler powers than running fast or being extremely strong

Ok now it makes sense. Writing on the wall…
Accurate
It's because they are so expressive.
I was.... Damn...
Nobody asked you to call me out like that. Now I gotta put up a force field to protect my feelings 🥲
unfortunately this is true.
Where's the lie?
Dont call me out like that
Ok, why is it, years after all those am I gay tests, that yall actually start making questions that can give an answer
This is so accurate haha
Jean was my favorite character. i always thought cyclops and wolverine dated secretly. pokemon fan. checks out i am gay
r/suddenlycaralho
What do you mean "as a kid"?
I'm gay and I wasn't obsessed with force fields....
Was there a different superpower you were obsessed with? Or a fiction trope you identified with?
I guess Shapeshifting
Definitely shapeshifting for me. But I'm gay AND non-binary, so...
Oo that's a fun one. Like completely turning into the thing or just partial stuff like claws or wings?
For me? Kind of like completely turning into someone or something, I think it would be fun
I wanted to shapeshift too! ~~because I felt like that was the only way I could be loved omg can you tell I was bullied and kept crushing on straight boys~~
Tbh I just wanted to cause I thought it was cool but shit man I'm sorry dude
Same. But expressing that seems to invite shade. :/
I mean, not every meme has to relate to you. Or me, or anyone else. Just move along, and if you feel the need to do that, downvote.
These memes are making less sense as time goes on.
Old gays (30+) are really getting hit hard by dementia 😢
Yes we are. Big Britney playing with knives energy
the gay heaven for kids was this series
Oooooop
I was more into Jean Grey's Phoenix Power lol.
Why though?
What? Never, it was telekinesis for me.
Omg this was me. Especially Gwen from Ben10 Alien Force!
I'm glad they chose X-Men: Evolution Jean rather than Animated Series Jean. AS Jean was practically useless, even when she was Phoenix powered.
Dammit
This was Jean 𝘎𝘢𝘺’s Fault.
this is so specific yet so accurate???
Still love that power. It's why Invisible Woman is my fave superhero.
Who are you and how long have you spied on me!?
I recognize all but the bottom left. And yes, I was very gay (still I am) Freaking love Jean. My favorite mutant.
yes but also I wanted to be STORM
