What in the alpha male podcaster bullshit is this freak on about ??!

I'm sure it wasn't purposely intended to be misogynistic because I don't think the Gen Rex writers were forward thinking enough to write subtle misogyny 😭. Just like how the clip above wasn't intended to be misogynistic but you can clearly tell the writers biases and how they portray biological science.

It's the same kinda thing with Sheldon Cooper in Big Bang Theory. It's this stupid trope where they'll get the really smart character to say something misogynistic in very sciency terms so it sounds legit but all of it is just kind of bologna. It sucks cuz when you see a scene like that you can clearly tell how uninformed the writers truly are on women/afab people as a whole.

It is interesting if we were to look at it specifically through the context of the show and not the writers preconceived biases. Like Cesar having some misogynistic characteristics is an interesting character choice that could have been developed a lot better. It could have really highlighted the struggles that Dr. Holiday might face being a woman in a male dominated field. Obviously because this stuff was never intentionally written to be misogynistic we never got the chance to see how it affected the female characters. (Granted we barely get to see how the female characters are affected by literally anything because the show really sucks at writing women)

I think it could kinda make sense for Cesar to do this. If we take into consideration that he calls most other scientists demeaning names as well. In the same episode he calls Van Kleiss a "third rate lab hack" and Dr. Rylander an "old fool". So he also probably has an ego problem...(What a dick).

But even with that justification it's still just a little bit icky. Especially since this show isn't afraid to touch the topics of human rights (evo rights in this case I guess) I really wish this did actually become somewhat of a plot point.

Omg, yes, yes, I'm planning to pretty soon post about her powers! As in how she met Caesar, I'm still fully working on her lore since her grandfather takes a huge role in the lore, the reason for that being that he was the first scientist to create a device to communicate with other life forms in other parts of the galaxy, which led him to find and travel to Drevas, grandmother's planet. From there, that's where the first human to have an interspecies relationship comes in, with an alien queen. As for later on, Dreva lost her grandfather and grandmother at 6 years old and wanted to learn about Earth. So she went out of her way to find the company her grandfather worked for (I can definitely make a part two because it is a lot LOL)

Here's the first unfinished drawing I made of her (left) and the right is made by my friend @morticiandotcom 💗
