Have you ever noticed that no one ever has anything nasty to say about Tegan and Sara that has any merit to it? Yeah, people say they don’t like their music and that’s fair enough but you NEVER hear people call them any sort of nasty names. You know why? Because these are two smart, mature and amazing women. They stand up for what they believe in don’t shy away from a confrontation when it comes to things they believe in. As someone whose had personal experiences with rape and homophobia it made me so proud to be a fan of theirs when I saw this interview. I’m sorry but fuck, I can’t think of any other people in this world that I would rather look up to. Things like this just bring it home and remind me why they are so amazing.
They deserve SO much more credit than they get.
