No it doesn't.

Feminism is about women's liberation. Not about celebrating every choice a woman makes.

If I enjoy being called nasty names for my skin color, does it make it less racist? If I choose to laugh along at homophobic jokes, does that make the jokes no longer homophobic? Just because I choose to remain a slave, doesn't change the definition of emancipation to mean "I'm emancipated cuz I LIKE being a slave :)" and it sure as hell doesn't mean "I support your choice to stay a slave :)". It means I'm no longer a fucking slave.

Feminism is not "clap for whatever choices women made because yay, good job, they made choices!" It's the systemic release from institutional oppression that's woven into every level of society.

I can enjoy being a domestic housewife and still be aware that I'm playing into millennia of patriarchal institution. I can choose to become jobless and dependent on my husband, and still realize that this is precisely the environment that closes doors and safety venues for women. The fact that I'm lucky enough to FEEL safe and happy within the patriarchal status quo does not magically change the fact that women ARE overwhelmingly abused, violated, murdered, stalked, harassed, dismissed, exploited, and given far fewer opportunities than men. Fundamental changes need to be made to change this fact, and that's what feminism is about.

Mustang is an Atoner figure. Something that plagues Atoner figures is when writers are too precious about the characters we're meant to like to actually let them be guilty of something serious.

The Atoner might be trying to make amends for their involvement in the Great '87 Hotel Massacre, and then three seasons in you find out what happened. And it's like, "I drove a taxi to the hotel, and the KILLER was in it! I ferried the killer to the hotel! That makes me responsible, and now I must atone for being nearby while the killings took place! And also vanquish the real killer who is the villain for this season."

Or maybe the Atoner did do the killings but they were under mind control the whole time and would never, ever have done it in their right mind.

But FMA said no. Mustang, Hawkeye, Hughes, even Armstrong to an extent though he suffered a breakdown and fled during it. They did that shit. They followed their orders and they did that shit. And it haunts them.

Roy did that shit. And his atonement, his grand ambition, is to see everyone responsible for that shit brought to justice for their crimes. Including himself.

She was pre-puberty, with a shaved head. WHY DID EVERYONE JUST KNOW THAT SHE WAS A GIRL???

So some fanartist drew a “sexy” (read: booby) version of a (cartoon) character who is traditionally very non-sexualised. Fans of the character got mad about it because it’s kind of groundbreaking how that character is written and portrayed and this art totally ignores the entire point of the character. They demanded the art be deleted. In response to that other people said, well what the fanartist did may be distateful but they have every right to draw what they’re into. The two sides fight for days and each starts a harassment campaign and even report their “opponents’” accounts.

So far so typical. But things eventually come to a head and they decide that this will be settled by votes - not through a poll. Through donations to a children’s education charity via each side’s portal. Whoever can get the highest amount of donation wins.

Farmer!Broly obsessively and religiously bringing his daily offering up the hill to HarvestGoddess!Trunks

Consider it done. (But oh boy, does it hard to do in 1 art)

I just reread the request andddd…. I got it somewhat wrong

Anyway~ i dont wanna spend the next 6 days trying to polish this so apologies in advance.

But, thanks for the idea hehe.

I like to think he is the “god” of harvest but he loves to dress elegantly, plus his beautiful face got all the mortals confused to be “goddess” even though he’s a bit more edge and bigger than actual goddess. He lives on the hill not on the heaven so the mortals can have an easier time wishing for prosperity.

Since the hill is so high, only the one who fit and strong enough to visit him. It gets pretty boring and lonely up there, so seeing anyone coming here is huge for Trunks. Let’s just say Broly’s field/garden becomes very fruitful from now on.

I like it!

The silhouette is majestic - fitting for a commander of a battalion, with clean, simple lines that make a statement. Modest and utilitarian, which fits his personality. I also like his short hair making him look younger again, which can be delightfully confusing.
