Maybe It Was A Kiss On The Mouth - Tumblr Posts

Idgie and Ruth are queer and you cannot convince me otherwise.
Exhibit A: Literally every outfit Idgie wears, but especially the one at Ruth’s birthday party. Like, theoretically there are straight women that dress like that, but I’ve never met any of them. Also, she literally does drag at one point and it’s iconic. Exhibit B: They have a food fight. In movies, food fights only occur in cafeterias or between the main couple of a rom com. For some reason, in Hollywood’s mind, food fights either equal love or high school.
Exhibit C: They literally co-parent Ruth’s child. They take care. Of a kid. Together. That’s some Fluff AU bullshit right there
Exhibit D: Lakescenelakescenelakescenela

the movie
Okay but the lake scene felt weirdly incomplete
Like there was supposed to be something more
but it got cut
Maybe it was a kiss on the mouth
I think this is the most delusional I’ve ever been abt a ship. Like I was *this close* to convincing myself that there was a
Fried Green Tomatoes super cut where Ruth and Idgie like for real kiss by the lake
And they’ve both got these feelings that they don’t understand bc they live in rural Alabama in the 1930s
“Is this even allowed?” Y’know
I feel like it’s worth mentioning that my very straight mother turned to me halfway thru the movie and said
“Am I crazy or would they make a really good couple?” GUYS EVEN THE STRAIGHTS PICKED UP ON IT
