exhausting how studying english literature so often just feels like the study of misogyny

#like i know why #but i'm starting to become so drained by it #especially since my other subjects are linguistics and classical civilisation so it's like....triple whammy #englit

it's okay gatsby if i had a chance of being with daisy buchanan i too would dedicate my whole life to making that happen

#daisy i could change your LIFE forget these men #also i guess it only made sense for gatsby to die at the end. regardless of myrtle #like if his entire life revolved around reuniting with her then who is he when that becomes impossible?#if i had it my way gatsby and nick would run away together and so would daisy and jordan #but no.. lets make everyone miserable...#great gatsby #englit

great gatsby chapter 3 is just nick going on about how beautiful gatsby’s smile is, how his tanned skin compliments him so well, how he feels eternal reassurance around him.

and then he’s like oh no no i'm straight! i was attracted to SO many women in new york! believe me i thought about pursuing them but when i tried once, her brother scared me off!

also i’m very attracted to jordan! especially the MOUSTACHE of perspiration above her lip and how her ANDROGYNOUS body is reminiscent of a young CADET!
