It’s time again for Lord Pastel Lance’s late as fuck news reports on fandom discourse. (To be fair, in Our defense, this discourse in particular just got worse & worse & funnier as time went on so it was actually good that We postponed making this report.)

This time: an out & open lesbian activist & voice actor makes a joke about gay male sex, tumblr antis accuse her of being a straight person, dismiss the actual queer representation she’s given people, make physical threats towards her & see ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH ACCUSING A GAY PERSON OF BEING A PEDOPHILE & TRYING TO GET THEM FIRED.

Gotta love that progressiveness, amirite?

We start once again, from Bex’s blog.

The ages had been confirmed thanks to the Paladin’s Handbook, which was finally released on August 15th, although some other people were able to get physical copies of it from their local bookstores since some countries released it early.

At this point in time, Keith was shown to be 18 going on 19, Shiro was 25, Lance was 17 & Pidge was 15.

Sheith had officially become the ONLY adult x adult ship while Klance, ironically, became an adult x minor ship.

Immediately, Bex was interrogated by an anon anti while Klantis (Klancer antis) screeched how it was the age gap that was wrong & that Sheith’s age gap was “problematic” while Klance’s age gap “didn’t matter because it was only like 2 years”. She responded with spaghetti memes & a joke about Keith being a power bottom. However, despite Pance also having the same age gap as Klance, Bex came under fire & got called a pedophile supporter & a child abuse/grooming supporter for shipping Pance & reblogging Pance fanart.

They also claimed that she was a straight fujoshi who fetishized gay men even though she is an out & open lesbian & therefore WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FETISHIZE GAY MEN. (Also these accusations that gay women weren’t allowed to comment on gay male sex were extremely strange given that power-bottoming is not RESTRICTED at all to just gay male on gay male sex. A lot of stuff that happens in straight sex can happen in gay sex & vice versa. Plus: TRANS PEOPLE.)

In particular, user hunk-is-an-anti (in Lord Pastel Lance’s opinion, the most greenest of teas) made the same accusations even though she was the one who was compiling the “masterpost of problematic stuff Bex has done or said”.

Yes. You heard that right. The anti “researching” Bex didn’t know that she was a lesbian. It’s literally right there on her wikipedia page. Which is really fucking short by the way.

None of these “Pidgestans”, who claim to be all for LGBTQ+ representation in media, knew that Bex was a lesbian & dismissed all her roles as queer characters, saying that she was a bitch & that those roles didn’t matter. In their minds, she is a “white feminist DEMON” & a “useless lesbian”, WOW.

User sheith-is-dead even claimed that they were emailing Dreamworks staff right now & that they were going to get Bex fired. (They also claimed that they would dox Us, which they still have yet to do.)



Antis even went so far as to make a fake blog masquerading as Bex solely for the purpose of slandering her & trashing her online, claiming that it was a “parody” (which is NOT true, because parodies are supposed to be funny & that fake blog was the least funniest thing ever).

Later, Bex was sent a message from Fairymatsu, a notorious troll who attacks both antis & non-antis, calling her a “f*ggot” & telling her that they hoped she got “violently raped”.

Antis immediately freaked out, claiming that antis would NEVER say this, even though the Bex search on tumblr was full to the brim with “choke/die Bex” posts made by antis. One anti even claimed that the sender was actually a shaladin trying to make the antis look bad.

^This ain’t even a real homophobic slur, it’s derived from “house n*gro” which basically means “race traitor” or “black people who love white people”.

Ironically, Bex does NOT even ship Sheith. She merely supports the idea that all ships are good.

Finally, an anti threatened to physically assault Bex at a convention. Bex replied with “I’m not scared of you” & then the anti suddenly started squealing that Bex was threatening to kill them & fight them. They even claimed that they were a 14 year old “mlm” & that all the messages they were receiving was giving them anxiety attacks as they continued to spread lies about Bex.

Even notorious anti sheither got fed up with this & tried to do some damage control & claimed that most antis weren’t like this & wouldn’t physically try to attack Bex. (The Bex search was literally still full of “choke/die Bex” posts at this point along with memes calling her “trash, bitch, greasy, fujoshit, white demon” & other things that normal people KNOW is fucked up to call a lesbian Jewish woman, but it’s not like these antis give a fuck about actual LGBTQ+ people or minorities.)

This is Lord Pastel Lance signing off with “wow that really just fucking happened, huh?”.
