Did you ever watched flozmin? Is god tier level Ship

I haven’t yet! Like Luimelia it comes heavily recommended and I’ve had it on my list forever but I always keep putting it off. I think in its case, the guaranteed happy ending also kind of makes me want to save it? You know? Like here’s a story that, if all else fails, I’ll be able to resort to.

hey so whats up with spanish speaking wlw and pools? I keep seeing videos different girls kissing in pools (and one in a shower?) and speaking spanish lately and im amazed & confused are spanish countries living a gay revolution

Now that you mention it, there’s Cris/Joana, Juliantina (pool and shower), Barcedes…what else? Lol, there’s a joke to be had about wlw and pools.

I loved the interview scene, Val making sure all of México knows Juliana Valdes is taken lol. Flozmin did a similar scene, I hope main rich girl proclaiming her love for her gf in an interview becomes a telenovela trope for lesbian couples

Lol, Jade on the Filipino drama The Rich Man’s Daughter did it too! I’ll have to keep an eye out for it when I start watching Flozmin.

It was a great scene, I don’t know its place here, but it was great in itself. And tbh, why not, it didn’t hurt anything and a lot of us loved it. That the finale was rushed doesn’t mean that the parts we did get weren’t great.

omg anon,just made people think that juliantina,flozmin,and brazilian couple clarina e limantha have set too high a standard *yo muero* *cries in spanish*

I don’t know that last one at all? If it’s good, I’ll watch. And I’m still lucky to have Flozmin left.

But man, I feel like it’s going to be really hard to get over Juliantina. It’s telling that people don’t even necessarily want another season or spinoff because what made this special will be so hard to capture again. And even if by some unprecedented miracle, these actresses with their phenomenal chemistry were cast opposite each other again, there’d be no guarantee that the writing and directing would be there. The acting, writing, directing, every necessary component came together in the best way to make this one story so good.

Hi! I hope you’re having a wonderful Monday. Just wanted to say that Juliantina is a wonderful love story, and that I completely agree with it being the best/sweetest representation. However, if you want to see incredible, pure, and all around near-perfect wlw storyline, flozmin is it. These two have to be the very best we’ve gotten in media.

And while I was typing up the response below, this came in:

Juliatina is certainly a great lesbian ship but they’re not yet at the level of Flozmen, they went from friends, to lovers, to wives, to mothers, and literally dealt with every real life situation relationships go through. So I’d say Juliatina has the potential to be one of the great lesbian love stories, but they have a lot to live up to for that title. Btw if anyone hasn’t seen Florencia and Jazmin’s relationship I’d suggest watching it, hands down the best f/f ship in recent years.

And if I said sure, would I get someone else in here about Vanity or Luisita/Amelia (you know what you did, Kana and Berena >_>)? 😛

To get serious for a moment, what’re we talking about here, screentime? Central characters? Main plot involvement? 

You might notice that when I talk about things I like, I usually frame them as how they affect me personally (”I loved this!” “this was so great to see”) and even when I do veer into stronger statements, I’ll go with something like “one of the best” or “among the most romantic that I’ve seen”. Because ultimately, how these stories affect us is far more important than any kind of arbitrary rating scale. And a whoooole bunch of things go into that. 

I can’t judge how other people will react to things I like. In fact, how often do I actually make recommendations? Almost never, right, I just gif things and people can decide if they want to watch (the lawyers say it’s better that way). Part of that is definitely the risk that comes with f/f ships but I really just don’t want to make assumptions on other people’s tastes. 

What if I were to say, the best f/f ship in recent times was…Killjoys’ Aneela/Delle Seyah? It doesn’t hit almost any of the qualities we’d list for The Best Ship but god, I love them and they hit my feelings in a way a lot of highly regarded ships don’t. In that list above of what makes a good ship, like screentime and central focus, I deliberately didn’t include qualities like realism, the level of relationship progression, or how healthy it is. Are those all absolutely needed? Would Villanelle/Eve or Catradora never be allowed in these discussions even if they went canon? 

Basically, let’s not focus on what is the best, which can only be one, and just on what we really like. The anon who sent the ask about Juliantina was of course making a sweeping statement but let her have it. Isn’t it better to have so many ships we all like so passionately?
