‼️‼️‼️‼️AOT MANGA SPOILERS‼️‼️‼️‼️(anime onlys scroll away!!!!!)
Nothing will ever irritate me as the aot fandom did when they found out Historia married a man. The way everyone jumped to accuse isayama as being ‘lesbophobic’ and bashed bisexuals and pansexuals for finding comfort in their favourite character being like them will never fail to piss me off.
It’s so weird that y’all felt threatened by bisexual and pansexual fans celebrating Historia being both wlw and mlm. And it’s so weird to me that y’all were so angry because the manga doesn’t give us any reason on WHY she married him so that’s completely up to the fans imagination. Some Bisexuals and pansexuals chose to interpret that as Historia learning to move on from Ymir and living for herself by finding love and a healthy family that she never thought she’d have. Y’all have the freedom to imagine her marrying him to save her reputation cuz she was being slut shamed for having a child out of wedlock. Or that she married him solely to offer him protection from the Yaegerists. Or she married him simply because she wanted to make sure that her daughter was raised with a traditional concept of family (married parents living together with children). The reasons y’all can come up with are endless and valid cuz hey there’s no canon explanation so fans finally have the best opportunity to go crazy with their fanon ideas without being bashed for doing so.
My issue isn’t that y’all hc her as a lesbian; my issue is with the WAY y’all reacted to people who chose to hc her as bi or pan cuz of her ending. Y’all felt so threatened for fans having fun that y’all went out of your way to send hate to any mf who hc Historia that way, and constantly shit on their posts on most social media platforms.
When chapter 139 came out, the aot fandom revealed some of their worst colours, and that includes shippers and ppl who enjoy hcs. Y’all were (and some of you still are) incredibly dramatic about it. Unless ppl were actively using Historia’s ending to be lesbophobic or using it to be shitty to ymhisu shippers, then I can’t see any valid reason y’all had for your behaviour.
