The Eel

as a feminist and fujoshi for heterosexuality, it is my belief that the greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing a generation that the most interesting fictional m/f dynamic (and maybe even the one which is most respectful to women) is one where an interesting woman is fucking a boring and skittish baby man who is obsessed with her as a concept. and they’ll say she’s pegging him but what they mean is that she orders for him in restaurants and maybe, like, wears winged eyeliner. you aren’t even actually letting this fictional woman dominate this fictional man you’re just gesturing at the idea because you have misogynistic ideas around “active” vs “passive” sexual roles and what they say about a person’s moral behavior. how are we meant to get out of this patriarchy if you can’t even envision that woman from your shows having fulfilling sex with someone she is attracted to.
