SBG 108: Ferris Bueller's Day Off with Emma Jayne


Listen Later

Check your toxic masculinity at the door and get ready for the skip day to end all skip days! This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with singer-songwriter and comedian Emma Jayne (@emmajaynegrams) to talk about the 1986 campy teen classic Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. This movie exists outside of the confines of heteronormativity (and the space time continuum). Nearly every character is queer (except Principal Rooney who is continually punished for his crimes against the queer community ie. our beautiful polycule).

Everything about Ferris’ relationship with Cameron and Sloane is giving Gen Z #relationshipgoals. Ferris planned this whole skip day just to lift his boyfriend Cameron out of his depressive funk and to give everyone a chance to bond with their newest polycule member, Sloane. We dive into the dynamics of our three leads, exploring Ferris through a transmasc lens and declaring Cameron our panromantic gray ace king. Sloane of course is not like the other girlies. She wears two different earrings, a sure sign of queerness; and we love watching her and Cameron get closer as the film goes on. 

There is nothing gayer in this world than Ferris lip-synching for his life TWICE on a parade float in his cheetah print vest. Not only is he fully embracing drag culture, but he is doing it all to cheer up Cameron. We love to see it. Ferris is absolutely winning for boyfriend of the year. This movie is pure vibes, just chasing one dopamine hit to the next. Genuinely feeling SO SEEN by this neurodivergent queer rep. #RepresentationMatters!

We know one thing for sure, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off Should’ve Been Gay. #SaveFerris (from heteronormativity).
