to combine both of the things I said about Janie and generalizing the characters, janie and ethel started out similar but they grew apart!! janie changes!!!! and ethel is a tomboy anyway. I don’t think these characters are always dressed up in frilly lace all the time. also why does everyone act like janie is basically maren from bones and all. is it just because both characters are black and in stories with similar themes? cuz that’s lame. janie can be her own girl. I don’t really like to throw things out there in fear of being inaccurate but I do think about janie a lot and have basically made up her entire character in my head. my janie likes metal and she’s NOT Ethel’s mentor character cuz that’s a dumb stereotype. theyre equals. janie and ethel wear similar clothes as kids but janie’s style changes when she grows up. she plays guitar

I also wanna reiterate that they were both outcasts. janie wasn’t popular or “cool” until maybe they grew apart. they were both weird kids

all i have are these ways i feel
