crazy that in the 1970s they were like, "fine, women can play sports. but because they're innately less athletic than men, only in a special ghettoized League For The Frail And Delicate where they get paid less 😊". And not only is that still the system in 2023, but viciously lashing out at the smallest challenges to that system gets framed as Feminist Praxis
We’re still here fighting to save ‘A league of their own’ and we’re willing to team up with other queer fandoms! (Comment, send asks or reblog if you’re interested!)
Our Flag Means Death being cancelled is another in a long line of Amazing TV shows that actually had great viewing numbers, social media presence, and talented casts cancelled by streaming services in their prime. [Shadow and Bone, A League of Their Own, Reservation Dogs, Doom Patrol, Inside Job, Ziwe, just to name a few]
Streaming services need to stop canceling shows that don’t solely cater to straight white males and they need to start recognizing that other demographics are valid too.
Netflix stop canceling your shows after one or two seasons challenge (failed)
Here at Peaches United, We’re putting together some template drafts so we can send letters to multiple streaming platforms urging them to pick up ‘A League Of Their Own’ and we’re looking to any of you with writing experience to help us with our drafts!
If you’re interested in making a template for these letters to help us, pls let us know!
