I'm not familiar with spanish penal code, but I assume it was not that different from ours at the time, which means: honor killings were a serious thing, and more dangerous than any supposed legal punishment.
Killers used to get v short jail terms (until 40ys ago) 🙄

So, frankly, I always find absurd that they are going on & on about telling fathers, husbands or brothers for that matter
🤷🏻‍♀️

But it's a telenovela, so I can't expect that it makes much sense, I know

Internet this morning is 50% met gala and 50% Rafah. the result is heart-wrenching. I don't know how other people's brains digest it. I'm angry, heartbroken, and ashamed.

SAPPHIC SPANIARDS UPDATE 54

Wellp. I nearly bit my own hand off from how stressful today’s episode was.

First, Marta greets Fina in the shop and asks if she’s sad (Fina was standing there gazing out of a window). She admits she’s really distracted by thoughts of Marta with her husband. She asks point blank if they had sex last night and Marta hesitates then answers “do you really want to know?” (1/9)

There were 42 people in our apartment last night … at the same time

even my introverted ass had fun because seeing my wife surrounded by so many people who had gathered (several even flying in from out of state) to celebrate her 🥹 it was really lovely

and I spoke more Spanish in one night than I probably have for the last two years combined bwahaha

Lovely, but did you take the chance to ask the important questions - like the translation of some sapphic dialogue? 😄

I really dislike the translation of
“Doña [First Name]”

into “Mrs. [First Name]”

the use of Mrs. First Name is uncommon in the US (as opposed to Mrs. Surname, which is more common) though I can’t say how other English speaking countries do it.

Translating “Doña Marta” as “Mrs. de la Reina” also seems like it’s conveying something else.

The solution could be “Ms. Marta” perhaps but that’s still not very common and “Ms.” wasn’t really a thing before second wave feminist moment in the US…

Cas_33,
@Cas_33@mastodon.uno avatar

@shippychaos
If not Doña, I would use Madame or Lady...
They are not the same, but convey the sense of respect for the authority/privilege doña entails and sound old-fashioned like that one.

Cas_33,
@Cas_33@mastodon.uno avatar

@shippychaos
I personally would keep D, bc it conveys both the foreign & historical setting of the story.
And frankly I don't think it impedes anyone's understanding of anything.

My second choice would be Lady too.
Though Idk if she's an actual noble in this story or just a member of a powerful & respected family, at the end of the day you convey more truth with that word than any mrs or ms etc.

Is that her husband? Or father or..?

Cas_33,
@Cas_33@mastodon.uno avatar

@shippychaos
Oh, that makes more sense.
Also the husband looks less annoying and younger 😉

This novela reminds me of a very melodramatic italian novel I read 20ys ago, called Medusa - over which I might have spent rivers of tears 🙃 btw - but I have the feeling this one will end better (possibly the husband will die and the rich widow & her friend will travel to South America 😄)

😄 the ship sinking would be perfect, but then in a true melodramatic way he would surely reappear at the less convenient moment 😂
We want a certain death 💀

Btw they put gray hair etc on that actor, but I think he is in his early 40s tops.
Marta though is supposedly way younger than that, i guess you're saying...

Cas_33,
@Cas_33@mastodon.uno avatar

@shippychaos I tried to look him up out of curiosity, but I don't even know b the character he plays, so I went nowhere with that 😂
Anyway, I would be surprised if he was more than 50.
Not sure about the hair either. But they look like they might not be his natural blend 🤷🏻‍♀️

As for Marta the actress I can tell she's around 40, but is her character around the same age?
So is F character like half her age or is F older than I thought too?

Yes, you can answer: watch and find out 😂

I'm so excited for We Are Lady Parts s2! Nida Manzoor said:
"In s2, we explore the interior lives of each of the women in more depth. Each of them facing new, existential challenges with all the silliness, pratfalls and banter of season one (...) The season overall asks the question of success. What is success? For a punk band - is fame, stadium shows and major record deals the answer? I wanted to explore the uncomfortable tension between art and commerce and ask how much compromise is too much"

I remember liking the concept, less the actual product. I mean like it was just ok.
A 2nd season will be interesting, so many years apart allow for potentially interesting developments both in the characters and in the author👍🏼
