“Having a crush on a girl is so strange, because wow, I actually like her for her PERSONALITY as well as her looks!” — Natasha, probably

This has been said before by people better at articulating their opinions than me, but the bad reception Black Widow got from male MCU fans is about so much more than just the simple concept that it's a superhero movie starring a woman, but the fact that it's so clearly a film by women for women. It's in all the little things, like all the amazing braids sported by the female characters instead of having them constantly fight with their hair down, Yelena and Natasha being excited about the vest and all its pockets, zero sexualisation of any of the Widows, the forced hysterectomy being discussed matter-of-factly, and the women getting to wear minimal to no make-up in settings where that makes sense. But it's also in the big things, like the story centred around the epidemic of girls being subjected to human trafficking with a theme of reclaiming your anatomy and freeing other female victims, both others and your own.

the joy Yelena has for her pockets (which is so cute and tragically heartbreaking) alone shows this cos lord knows women's stuff lacks pockets and a brainwashed spy knowing this speaks volumes.

Because of Natasha’s past, seeing kids die when she’s on a mission hits her hard. She blames herself, and replays it over and over, reads the mission report extensively, and doesn’t sleep trying to figure out what went wrong and how to prevent it next time. If she can’t figure out how to stop it (which is most times, because it’s very rarely something that could be avoided) she gets dangerously self-destructive.
