to clarify for anyone unfamiliar with the show who doesn't know which OTP OP is referring to, Garnet (the character in the secret) is actually a fusion of two other gems (sapphire and ruby) who are very heavily implied on the show (and confirmed irl) to be in a romantic relationship, so Garnet herself is the OTP.

This is "clarification" ???

She's a super-lesbian made up of two other lesbians combined.

Well, sort of? Member of a single-gender race, I thought, but they read as feminine, and one was "mother" to a human boy.

As I understand it, they identify as female, but I'm not 100% clear on the lore.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-20 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
They never refer to each other as girl/woman, only gems, but they don't object at all to being called 'Steven's moms' collectively and use 'she' pronouns for all gems without making a big deal of it.

I don't think they identify as *female* technically or tumblr-ally but they definitely are coded feminine and have no problems with humans referring to them as such.

Uh, I think referring to each other as "she" without hesitation just about counts for "referring to each other as girls/women." The reason they don't do THAT is to avoid the association with humanity, cuz they're rocks.

Sorry but this "Ruby/Sapphire aren't a lesbian pairing you guys" thing is kind of getting old and obtuse. If Greg/Rose is a heterosexual pairing (it is) and if posts about how ~special~ SU is for have a young boy look up to women can get thousands of notes without an issue, then I don't see what's so exceptional about this situation. Fandom wouldn't have a problem with it anyway if both characters were visibly very feminine.

Non binary lesbians exist. She/her pronouns are not limited to women, non-binary people can use those pronouns too.

The gems do not have gender, Rebecca Sugar has stated this. Humans perceive them as female and assign she/her pronouns to them.

Non binary lesbians are a thing, that's what they are.

you have to be a woman to be a lesbian

it's part of the definition, Lesbian= homosexual woman

...So "lesbian pairing" is perfectly correct then?

(Anonymous) 2015-06-20 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
For Steven Universe, maybe it is.

In the SU setting, two gems (people like Garnet) can fuse into double-people.

OTP is a fandom term for a major ship (One True Passion/Pairing).

What else do you need explained?

I watched the video with that song someone made a f!s about and realized this. It confused me a bit (I've seen fanart of these people on my dash, both together and separately) but at the same time it's a pretty rad concept.

Yes, that one. I did not expect such a catchy song from that show. ... Hell, I didn't realize that show had songs in the first place, lmao.

I actually don't really like most of the songs from the show (though I adore the show even so) but I like that one! And maybe one or two others. But Stronger Than You is so good (and the season finale two-parter it was part of was just amazing all around. ahhh.)

this is a pretty spoilery first comment (as much as I like this thread)
