my wife has many Brienne feelings as well!
ahahah I can’t say I’m surprised. So much of Brienne’s story maps directly to feelings I have about being butch and being a lesbian, and my brief time being active in that fandom made it clear I’m not the only one. (The only time I ever got truly involved in fandom wank was over that, someone made a post like “But why did GRRM make Brienne like men,” and boy did people come for her, how dare we see ourselves in a character like this 😛 )
