You need to stop being 19 as fast as humanly possible no matter what it takes get out of there it’s dangerous and bad for you

sometimes it's less like there's masculine and feminine things and gender neutral things, it's more like. there's gendered things and there's ungendered things. masculine things are ungendered feminine things are gendered. masculinity is the default and femininity is the abberation, the Gendered Experience. pants are for everyone skirts are for girls. suits are for everyone dresses are for women. you know

just woke up from this bad dream where they let men run around on some grass for ninety minutes kicking this spherical object around. thank god that’s not real

i think part of what made supergirl so special is that the whole time watching i never felt like kara was sexualized or objectified at all, normally in women superhero movies theyre in skintight suits or have perfect makeup on or there's a fight scene that just so happens to lift up their skirt (and that did happen but she was wearing a skort because of course you would if you can FLY) but that just didnt happen. her hair is messed up basically the entire movie and even at the heroic full body shot at the end she's just floating over everyone, not saying some stupid "you just got beat up by a lady!" one liner or doing some unrealistic pose just to make a good screenshot. she was always just a person. and parts of the story definitely connect to her more because she is a woman but being a woman didnt get in the way of being a person (...kryptonian).

I’m gonna need you all to get more obsessed with Supergirl 2026. It’s literally every single sarcastic, messy, depressed, grieving, male lead from recent media that accidentally adopts an angry, young girl (also grieving) which forces him to confront his self destructive behavior and realize the impact he can still make. But she’s a girl. This is the character you all love in every piece of media. I’m begging you all to adore her the same way.
