I think Mario is Queer.

I'm going to be honest if I see someone declaring Mario's a cishetallo ally I don't trust them to have good opinions about him in general. Especially when they're hc'ing every other Mario character under the sun as some flavor of queer in the same breath. 

Because he's always the ONLY nonqueer one in headcanon sets! Like y'all can't make him bi or pan or aro? Or "probably nonbinary but I don't have time to think about that I've got a princess to save"? Or at least make multiple people the allies and not just him, lmao

And you know while we're on the subject, I think I'm over Luigi being referred to as a Queen or Princess in fics, too, especially Bowuigi ones. Some fics get a pass for hand-waving towards Worldbuilding, and others that at least draw a connection from Mama Luigi to the feminine titles get a side-eye and little else, but the rest...I need to be meaner about them, for real.

I feel the Mario queer headcanons thing so much. Let Mario be queer...

LET MARIO BE QUEER!!! 🫰🏿🫰🏿🫰🏿 Personally I headcanon him as aroace, myself. Do you have any specific queer headcanons for him or is it a 'we'll take anything that isn't cishetallo thx' situation for you?

I’m admittedly fluid when it comes to sexuality/gender/related headcanons in general (it depends on the story I want to tell, if that makes sense?) but with Mario I also like to see him as aro, more specifically grayromantic/aroflux so romantic feelings are just a confusing mess in general for him (I guess this could also imply WTFromantic too). I also like the idea of a trans man Mario who decided to just go by his last name while he decided on a new first name... except he’s bad at names so Mario’s just his first name now too.
