everlasting true love, i am yours

it’s a really strange sensation when i read or watch something and it is like the issue here is i am sensing some deep chord of what i would name a misogynistic contempt, but in a way where i know the evidence will simply never be “convincing” enough for people who don’t feel it. and people do not have to feel it, to agree with the feeling. but the response to this is usually so scornful - you are hysterical if you are picking up on this. you’re crazy. show me the exact frame that proves it. but i do feel also with something as subterranean and vast and old and structuring and constant and inescapable and strange as misogyny and the other foundational oppressions of liiiiike our whole society there is a felt excess that sometimes exceeds what can be defined with language where all the classic means of evidence simply sort of fail in the face of what ultimately is an unpleasant feeling. exactly because i think unpleasant feeling itself, like the work a feeling of, say, contempt, can do in the world, is the means through which so much of the wordless processes of misogyny and other bigotries are advanced. so.

jane eyre should’ve ended with jane and rochester getting married and then jane locking him in the attic for prolonged periods of time while the novel framed her as righteous and romanticized it

After reading umineko life is just constantly thinking: "I need to reread umineko". And before that is thinking: "I need to read umineko".

not every piece of art centered on a straight woman is "hetslop" and at some point it becomes misogyny to dismiss art abt women with that term

there is nothing to be gained by acting like women aren't oppressed by men, and nothing to be gained by acting like straight and bisexual women have nothing interesting to say abt their relationships with men. and as several ppl have pointed out in the notes, the term "hetslop" is often levied at Black women especially as well as other women of color. so like. just don'tttttt be annoying on my post like this thank you
