QUEENDOM — WOMANHOOD & SELF LOVE

Queendom is not only a "body swap" romance, it's an exploration of the complexities of womanhood. This is a story about two women who don't fully like themselves in their own bodies and must unlearn those feelings through a journey of self-acceptance.

The patriarchy teaches women to compare themselves to each other: who is prettier, more successful, more popular. this is to the point where women can't see the beauty (both internal and external) in themselves anymore. The world fears a woman who sees her value.

Switching bodies allows Rey and Print to see themselves from someone else's perspective. They see both their own "flaws" and each other's "flaws", which allows themselves to truly understand and love themselves, and each other, at the same time.

The deep connection these two women have for each other is more than physical attraction. Their love for each other exists beyond the confinements of their physical bodies. They are in each other's bodies, but they are in love with each other's soul.

"I want this series to give strength to women and girls around the world.." - Queendom's director, Tawan Panusittikorn, talking about her intentions for Queendom.

Tawan: In Thailand, we have come very far embracing the queer community, and I think that's the whole point for me. I want queerness and lesbianism to be completely embraced. I just want everyone to feel like they're completely embraced. For women, especially, I want this series to give strength to women and girls around the world that we can be anything. We can be strong, but also stupid. We can glamorous and bratty, we can be vulnerable and cringy. We can be whatever we are. We can embrace who we are.

I appreciate the lack of AI generated content on tumblr, the consistent circulation of posts dating back ten years, the regular exercise of critical thinking skills, the appreciation for ‘old’ media… our little time capsule
