IT GOT BETTER

The RomCom Aunties!

perhaps controversial take but i would have genuinely liked jjk at least a lot more if at least half of its main male cast was female and im not just saying this as a lesbian. i mean i think if yuji was a woman she (& her literally being born to be a vessel for someone else) would be an allegory for how women's worth is tied only to their relation to men & procreation(paralells between being a vessel and giving birth potentially?) and if geto was a woman she (& her ct being literally swallowing the worst of humanity's emotions) would be an allegory for the expectation for women to take on all the emotional labour. those were the main 2 but gojo if he was a girl would be about the expectation of perfection from women (& would also be subversive for the genre!!)

"i would kill a pedophile to protect my child" ok but would you teach your child how to say no? even to adults? even to adults you like? would you teach your child the words "penis" and "vulva" and then use them? would you let them ask questions about their body? would you answer them honestly? would you learn how to cope with your feelings when you talk about human bodies, so they don't feel ashamed? would you set a positive example for how you talk about your body? would you tell your child they don't have to hug or kiss anyone? would you tell your family the same? would you stand by them when they refuse to hug someone? even someone you know has never done anything to hurt them? would you let your child avoid food they don't like? would you let you child avoid people they don't like? would you believe them? would you sit in the discomfort of not knowing all the answers and not take it out on them? would you love your child the same if someone did hurt them? would you make them feel valued just as they are? would you let them talk to doctors or nurses in private? would you let them express their feelings? would you show interest in their life? would you let your child say no to you? would you help your child feel safe coming to you when they make a mistake? would you apologize to your child? would you believe them? would you put aside your anger to focus on what would make your child feel safe and loved? would you put your ego aside for your child? would you take your child's concerns seriously? would you listen to your child? would you believe them?
