Can we talk about how in District 11 after Rue’s death, the entire district rioted. They burned and broke things. Everybody watching the movie loved it because they saw the unjust government for what it was. A little black girl died. Yet when a black boy dies in real life and people start riots over their unjust government, they’re ridiculed and labelled “dangerous”.

I will defend the right for people to read characters as queer and to write m/m fanfic all day, every day.

But if you (seem to) need to justify erasing or dismissing female characters while doing so, or imply that m/m is the only way that fans can imagine a relationship of equals, I get super uncomfortable.

…because it seems to imply that:
– female characters are always less powerful
– OR that we can’t imagine female characters as anything other than less powerful, even in our wildest fantasies
– OR that f/f doesn’t/cannot hold the same value
– OR that any m/f ships in canon are somehow broken or lesser because m/f relationships always have power differentials
– OR that we can’t imagine m/f ships as relationships of equals, even in our wildest fantasies
– OR that all m/m ships are devoid of power differentials
– OR that we are more willing to imagine our fave (white) male characters – sometimes in elaborate-as-fuck aus – valuing each other in a relationship than we are to imagine that they could possibly value/treat women as equals, even in our wildest fantasies

And I think fandom is (or has the potential to be) better and more imaginative than that.  But maybe that’s just me?

Reblogging myself because I just saw a friend reblog something that said pretty much exactly what I was trying to rebut with this and OH MY GOD WE HAVE BEEN OVER THIS.

shoutout to mentally ill people who are in such a bad place that they can’t even fulfill basic tasks like grocery shopping or showering or getting dressed or taking their meds properly you are still wonderful and worthy of respect and i love you.

A FEMALE CHARACTER IS NOT ‘WEAK’ JUST BECAUSE SHE IS IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH A MAN, OR BECAUSE SHE CRIES OVER ONE, NOR IS SHE BEING ‘DESTROYED’ BECAUSE SHE IS IN LOVE. CAN WE STOP ACTING LIKE WOMEN HAVE TO BE EMOTIONALLY DETACHED AND HATEFUL AND ACT LIKE THEY’RE ‘TOO GOOD FOR ANY MAN’ JUST TO BE DEEMED STRONG PLEASE.

Boys, romanticize yourselves. You are a king. You are a warrior. You are an enchanter. You are an angel. You are a god. You are all of these things and more, you are the stuff of fairytales.

You know, that’s the first time anyone’s ever told me that

That’s sad, because you deserve the chance to be as much of a prince as I get the chance to be a princess.

That’s really needed actually, thank you.
