I'm Gonna Be So Honest I Genuinely Don't Understand How People See Marvin As A Dog. Maybe It's Due To

I'm gonna be so honest I genuinely don't understand how people see Marvin as a dog. Maybe it's due to my obsession with In Trousers but like Young Marvin is so clearly trying to be something he isn't. Much more energetic as he forces himself into roles of society he doesn't fit into he's like a cat trying to be a dog as he attempts to convince himself that he's straight. By Falsettos he's chilled out a bit as he begins to accept his sexuality and deconstruct the toxic masculinity he's structured his life around. Act 1 Whizzvin is the classic portrayal of cat vs dog as they struggle to maintain their relationship. By Act 2 Marvin has had time to contemplate on his character due to the help of the Lesbians and Whizzer has made his return in "The Baseball Game" (arguably the most Cat Marvin and Dog Whizzer song in the show). They bring out each other's best qualities and balance each other's personalities. They grow together and finally learn to accept each other for who they are. Marvin finally accepts that he's gay and doesn't need to pretend to have a perfect tight knit family because his family is a mess and he wouldn't have it any other way.
