Neon Genesis Evangelion is more influential in its medium than any other work of art made in the past 100 years.
It's also fucking weird as shit, and its finale is (partly) an extended letter of hate toward its own fanbase.
If that's not worth watching, I don't know what is.

The problem isn't that there's not enough F/F fic "for me," there's already more F/F fic than I'll ever read in my lifetime; the problem is what the relative lack of F/F fic says about fandom as a whole. People are just allergic to any systemic feminist critique of their hobbies.

I wonder how much antipathy to F/F and female characters in general in fandom is the idea that sexual attraction inherently means objectification, and so obsessing over a character (which is assumed to include lusting after them) is only permissible if they're a man?

What's annoying about the trans radfem discourse is it's really a proxy war for "should trans women perceive themselves and act in the world as primarily trans/queer, or as primarily women?" But instead of debating that directly people are shadowboxing around 1970s terfs.

basically no romantic relationship in the manga is officially "canonized," gay or straight. i would say marcille/falin is more canon than any other potential ship, though.

Yascha is *so close* to realizing that capitalism is the problem but he's a centrist so he'll just retreat to "guess both sides are bad lol"
Donald Trump's performance on Covid has been terrible, and America has suffered deeply.
It is now also clear, though, that Europe is not doing significantly better.
Is this because:
1) European political leadership is just as bad?
2) Leadership doesn't matter that much?
3) ?

childhood friend romance is like incest. it would probably happen if two people were stuck alone in an attic for 25 years and it wouldn't be good or okay but the victims deserve pity, not anger.
We don't talk enough about how problematic it is to marry your high school sweetheart. You say you spent years befriending a minor and building a relationship so you could marry them when they grew up? Groomer shit straight up but y'all aren't ready for that conversation

I think Suletta is probably bi too but this is a bad argument (even assuming the "bisexual lighting" part is a joke). You can easily interpret her as just having platonic feelings for El4n. Miorine is the only character she's clearly shown to be in love with.

Tbh I feel like the only reason people say this is they don't really view trans men as men. No way would they ever say it about any group of c!s men. Kind of incredible how many self-styled defenders of trans mascs end up treating them as women or "women-lite."

This manhua specifically I can definitely recommend. I think it does some interesting stuff with the a/b/o concept; for example the "omega heroine" is very proactive and headstrong while the "alpha villainess" is filled with self-doubt.

You're right, we can't force people to care. If you consistently care about male characters more than female characters, I just think you should do some self-reflection about why. Not for me -- like I said there's already plenty of F/F content for me -- but for your own sake. :)

If someone is incredibly uncomfortable with the idea of expressing any sort of sexual attraction to women -- even if it's not an attraction they themselves feel -- then of course they're going to focus exclusively on male characters.

She's not just claiming a "personal preference" here, she's saying being attracted to trans women (as a woman) makes you bi and "real lesbians" only like c1s women. She might reject terfism intellectually but she clearly has transphobic tendencies.

I guarantee there won't be any real systemic change in this manga. Horikoshi has repeatedly shown that his morality is "the status quo isn't perfect but rebelling against it is much worse." That's why Endeavor gets a redemption arc while the LoV is getting killed off one by one.

This is a great thread, but I also agree with this post that any interpretation of Toshiro needs to reckon with how horribly he treats Izutsumi. I get why he dislikes Laois, but his objectification of Izutsumi is much, much harder to defend.
@supesrogue
I don’t like how all the reevaluations of toshiro go without acknowledging the way he treats izutsumi…who was a literal child when his father BOUGHT her in a cage…there’s definitely racism going on there as well. needless to say there’s nuance to be had in every direction

That still assumes that the major reason to write a same-sex relationship in fanfic is if someone is sexually attracted to that gender. That doesn't seem true to me. Plenty of lesbians and asexual women write m/m fanfic too.

Speaking of race, if anything the way fandom treats dark-skinned characters is even worse than the way it treats women. It doesn't escape me that in the Star Wars sequel fandom, the M/F ship between two white people became far more popular than any ship involving the Black man.
