#This performance is so fucking intense #It has overtones that I’m not sure Glee is even prepared to explore #This is not about sex—this is about power and attempting to dominate someone #Sebastian attempts to dominate Santana #Both Sebastian and Santana have made their ‘careers’ using sex as a means to intimidate subdue and influence their peers #but in this situation? Neither of them has a sexual interest in the other #so the sex of this all becomes about something else: it becomes about power #Sebastian moves like a predator#He attempts to dominate Santana with his movements his voice and even the lyrical content of the song #But she won’t allow herself to be dominated #She sees what he’s attempting to do—just look at her face #in those first few gifts as she sizes him up—and she #refuses to respond to it in the way that he wants. #She isn’t intimidated; she returns his aggression full-force. #The power politics of this scene are incredible. #Santana stands up to Sebastian blow for blow. #This is a strong independent woman everyone. #Santana negotiates the space in the room and the dynamics of the song to perfection; she stands #her ground. And in the end? She fucking wins. #A million points to Santana Lopez. #Who run the world? GIRLS.#This scene has everything to do with power and nothing to do with sex.

Glee makes us give the most shallow plots depth, and force our own character progression. Ugh I’m in a love hate...
Annie are you OK?
This took FOREVER to find in my likes, but finally reblogging now that I’ve seen the video.
Obsession: Naya Rivera & Santana Lopez.
