"The Views To Love..."



























"We Were Always There..."




"The Imitation Of Life..."


carolinahope on Tumblr:
 

One of the things I love about the Red, White & Royal Blue movie is that we could write a guide on romance tropes/tools just using scenes from it. For example:


Intimacy


Casual Intimacy


Love Making


Cheeky Visuals

 
Unexpected Kiss


Feelings Realization


Stronger Together


Visual Metaphors


Desperation


Giddy Reunion


Flirting


Sweet Interlude in a Crisis


Laughing Together


Alone in a Crowded Room


Comfort


Dick Measuring Contest


Vulnerability


Support


Banter


Only Have Eyes for You


Lost in Lust


And I’m sure there are many many more...

I refused to watch this for weeks after it premiered on Amazon. All the gif sets made me hopeful that it was well acted, faithful to the novel and thoughtfully directed, but so many gay themed films are not that I didn't want to risk disappointment. When I finally did watch it a couple of weeks ago, I was so surprised to find myself crying through most of it... It was literally the fairytale that I dreamed of as a boy; perfect in every way.  If you've not seen it, well you should, it might renew your faith in the truth of love.  One of the best imitations of life I've seen in years.

"Same Gender Loving People - No. 5314"


"True Love Lives Beyond It's First Summer
..."

Positive images of people like me... The truth of the matter is that we all need to see people like ourselves. So everyday, I'll post a photo, drawing or some other artwork that depicts Same Gender Loving People as what we are... Only Human.



"A Sad Story In Six Words..."


Nothing hurt so much as love.



"Just For Fun..."


You've seen these photos of a wonderfully romantic couple before...


But did you know, it's famously romantic porn...?

Yep, it absolutely is! Now don't get me wrong, I think the actors and the cinematographer did a fantastic job, it looks so real.  And hey, maybe it is... sometimes porn actors are actually in romantic relationships with each other, they even get married!

"We Were Always There..."




"Selfie Love..."


"Selfie Love" - those beautiful, grainy, out-of-focus self-pics that capture the truth of true love..."



"The Poet's Corner..."


Like thunder needs rain
Like a preacher needs pain
Like tongues of flame
Like a sweet stain
Need your love
I need your love
