  1. Just finished logging the 2nd season of Steven Universe. Just 24 more video to go before I can begin the editing process. If I keep this up I should be able to get to the editing process by the 24th of November. But I can't get sidetracked. Gotta stay focused. And sway to the Rhythm of Love! ;)

  2. Um... I really don't think that's possible... The show has showed us through countless episodes Steven has a clear attraction to Connie and vice-versa. Much as I would like the show to explore gay relationships and not just lesbian ones. We still have to remember. Gems have no gender. This means their love for one another is not built on cultural construct but rather something extremely personal and internal. I still don't understand why all the Gems are referred to as "her" or "she" in the show if they are without gender in the first place. I suppose ease of writing? Doesn't matter to me though. Then again... The whole reason why Gems could be without gender is because of the totalitarian reign The Diamonds enforced on them. Gender is a cultural construct. The Diamonds clearly have no emotional attachments and are explained and displayed as being very apathetic and sociopathic. And since The Diamonds were the clear rulers of the Gems they could have warped the society's ways of thinking very easily for them to believe there is no such thing as gender or even attraction to another. I mean if we look at the ways the Rubies fuse they do it purely to gain a fighting advantage and grow bigger there is no attraction or relationship behind it. The Diamonds probably teach the same kind of thing to gems like Jasper. This is evident as Jasper says to Garnet "Fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak gems stronger". Maybe this proves The Diamonds teach corrupt things about relationships and fusion to their soldiers. But that's a debate for another time. We can at least deduce though that because the Crystal Gems like Garnet and Pearl having rebelled against The Diamonds they have a defined cultural background that is irrelevant to the forced culture The Diamonds enforce. Therefore in laments terms. The Crystal Gems have more gender than some Homeworld Gems like Jasper. I realize this might be getting confusing. But I've been typing for too long now, I can't stop. This is why Garnet and Pearl can be a part of relationships with other Gems or humans. Because they have broken away from that vile culture The Diamonds enforced. It would be quite evident that Rose Quartz having a relationship with Greg was also a sign that she too broke away and discovered her gender. I forget the name of the woman Pearl is attracted to so please forgive and correct me. But the fact that Pearl has an attraction to a human being shows that she too has discovered her gender. Now I'm not saying Gem gender is dependent on attraction to humans or other Gems... But I have little to go on... When we first see Peridot talk to Yellow Diamond over the intercom. Yellow Diamond specifically says "Which peridot?" Much alike how every single "Pearl" is built to serve a Quartz. And all Quartz are soldiers. All Crystal Gems are both born and raised for a single purpose. They have no free will. I mean that's why Rose was so fascinated by humans. They could have any gender or free choice they wanted. So I guess I'm measuring the "gender" of Gems by whether or not they make choices of their own free will. And since attraction to other humans or gems (outside of for fighting enhancements like explained earlier) is all I have to go on then that's it. I moreso want Peridot to get together with Amythest or Lapus. She has more of a connection to those two rather than Steven. And speaking of gender. Even though Steven is clearly attracted to Connie and vice-versa. We could say he's heterosexual. Of course sexual orientation is not the same as sexual attraction. So Steven could be attracted to Connie and not technically be male. Though to be fair... Steven has shown several different male traits as defined by OUR CULTURE. Such as attraction to action figures (the guys thing), working out muscles (coach steven), and most importantly he wears regular male swim trunks. If Steven identified as something other than a male his swimwear would likely reflect that. Then again in the "Sadie's Song" episode he did adorn female clothing but that was only for an act to cover for Sadie who he was trying to protect. At least I think... Sorry for the rambling. My point being. I don't think the show will explore a relationship between Peridot and Steven when it already took the time of more than 3 seasons to establish the adorable relationship he already has with Connie. The only way I see it ever working is if Steven fuses with Peridot in some future episode like he did with Amythest. Then again only time will tell in that regard...
