Wait, what? |
Hi, I'm Angela. I'm a white, cis woman who would enjoy long walks on the beach but that means I'd have to leave my apartment. In my spare time I enjoy crying about tv shows, procrastinating on assignments even after they're due, and pretending my alcohol tolerance is higher than what it actually is. Things you'll find on this blog are Homestuck, comics, Teen Wolf, Doctor Who, and a variety of other fandoms and pictures of kittens and puppies. |
Your daily reminder that Wolverine is the fucking
worstman.Fixed it :D
Nah son. Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah son.
Wolverine is the fucking worst.
He’s wrong, to start with, She-Hulk didn’t get with Juggernaut, some version of her from the multiverse did. So you got this hairy little Canucklehead absorbing and spreading fuckshit rumors about the sex life of one of the (relatively) few high profile superwomen in his field of work.
Then you got the fact that, right or wrong, Logan is on that slut shaming bullshit. Hey, Wolvy, you don’t want to have a one night stand with Jen? Fine, your loss. Hey, Wolvy, you wanna put down Jen because the sex she may or may not be having lowers her value to you? Drink some bleach.
And since bullshit comes in threes, you also have the straight up hypocrisy of it all. This is goddamn Wolverine we’re talking about, who despite all odds has a list of sexual partners as long as his arm. If he didn’t have a healing factor, the last hundred and fifty years of freaky loving he’s gotten would have left him literally riddled with diseases. (Son had half a dozen kids he didn’t know existed, you can’t tell me Wolverine places a high value on safe sex, or even pulling out). Wolverine has literally less authority than anyone else in the Marvel Universe when it comes to judging people based on their sexual history.
But no, it’s all good, respectability based on your sexual history is a one way street. Get a lot of pussy? Player. Get a lot of dick? Skank.
She-Hulk sees y’all, and doesn’t think much of you.
HEY GUESS WHAT GUYS, I’M GONNA REBLOG THIS LIKE FIVE TIMES TODAY BECAUSE SOME PUNK ASS, INSECURE, BETA PERSONALITY ASSED DUDEBRO CALLED ME GAY FOR SAYING IT. WHICH I CAN ONLY ASSUME MEANS I SAID SOMETHING WORTH SAYING.

Every time I post something about Norman Reedus and it gets reblogged you fangirls just gotta swoon and add your own cutesy caption. Nothing against fangirls but here’s a challenge. Swoon over this! Good luck.
OP, it is clear that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of one or more of the following:
‘fangirls’
‘swooning’
‘challenge’
I mean we could probably use this as a really interesting launching point for the fundamental disconnect between ‘what people actually find hot’ and ‘what society/patriarchy presumes is hot’ and how the assignations of gender roles and sexuality fuck with that. Like the presumption that the female gaze doesn’t even exist, or if it does that women-intersted-in-men find the same things about men sexy that men-interested-in-women presume they do/should.
I mean, how many ‘porn for straight women’ magazines have tried to launch and asked a bunch of straight women what they wanted in porn -and gotten answers of ‘smiling dudes’ ‘dudes giving bedroom eyes’ and ‘cock’ - only to then said ‘yeah no, we’re giving you tough,aloof-looking shirtless guys with power muscles and weapons instead (because regardless of what any of you say you want we know that the majority of you want tough looking guys with power muscles and weapons because that’s what masculinity is because sexiness is feminine-coded. I mean obviously the only reason a man would display in a sexually-inviting way (as opposed to an aggressive way or a disinterested way) is if he’s trying to attract a man! Ergo anything in which a man is display in a sexually inviting or (gasp) submissive way is gay gay gay gay gay and thus the anti-masculine and no woman would ever want it. We know better than you what you like and want and find sexy) and then failed and blamed the failure on the totally legit and well known phenomenon that women just don’t get off on visual stimuli they’d rather read erotica.
But I’m too busy getting off on images like the above.

Whenever you need a laugh, remember that there are people who refuse to believe that there’s any sexism at all involved in how Koriand’r costume is done in Outlaws (despite proof that the artists don’t seem to know or care how non-dude bodies work).
Remember that and laugh.
Until you cry because those same people will defend the comics harder than the dudebros who read it.

Teen girls get shit on when they try to attract male attention (in a society that bases their worth on their appeal to men)
They get shit on when they shun the male gaze, or in any way have an interest, passion, voice, purpose beyond performing for men
Shit on for having high self esteem, mocked for having low self esteem. There is really no winning.
And on top of that, they’re the first target for any kind of hate and harassment or mockery.

“On Trek‘s sexy factor: “Star Trek has to be sexy. That’s in keeping with the original spirit of the series. In the 1960s they were limited because of the time, but so much was insinuated. Part of the fun of our first movie was playing with the idea that Uhura and Spock were a couple. This movie takes that further and asks how that’s possible. Why would she be interested in that kind of guy, and why would she put up with him? It’s obvious what he would like about her. I mean, it’s f–king Zoë Saldana. And it’s always fun playing the womanizing card with Kirk and seeing him in bed with girls who might not be completely human—you know, green skin or whatever. Nobody’s going to force Kirk to be a romantic and settle down. That would feel forced and silly. Kirk’s a player. We like him that way.”” - JJ AbramsOh my god, I literally want to punch JJ Abrams in his face, holy shit. Like, how can you get a character so, so, so wrong. I actually really liked Kirks characterisation in “Into Darkness” but it’s quite disheartening to see that the Director for the movie, has absolutely no idea about the source material and about the main character. ”Force Kirk to be a romantic” FORCE. KIRK. TO. BE. A. ROMANTIC. Did he even fucking watch any of the original series + movies, for fucks sake. I am so goddamn mad, because it was obvious enough that they are following that “popular, cultural WRONG idea of Captain Kirk” in XI but to see it so clearly said by the Director? FUCK. And like, we all know what Spock sees in Uhura right, I mean, she’s really attractive? What else is there to want? FUCK. And reading this straight after reading his “yeah, Into Darkness is pretty sexist” interview like what the fuck is wrong with you dude? Yes, it’s a bit sexist (a bit PFFFFT, understatement) but you are the goddamn director, you have the power to fix that!! But no, no, it’s fine. I’ll just make a statement acknowledging it, and that should be cool. FUCK. And then what about his other interview where he flat out said he didn’t care about Star Trek or the characters? FUCK. Just, UGH, FUCK.Reminder that when asked his favorite TOS episode, JJ answered with—wait for it— The City on the Edge of Forever. The one where Kirk falls madly in love with a woman and has to be physically restrained from sacrificing millions of lives and changing Earth’s timeline to save her.
I guess that was just him being a “player”.
Also, people above have already said this, but I AM GOING TO BE ANGRY TIL MY DYING DAY ABOUT THE LINE “It’s obvious what he would like about her. I mean, it’s f–king Zoë Saldana” BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST JJ, IS THAT REALLY ALL YOU SEE IN HER, AND IS THAT REALLY ALL YOU BELIEVE SPOCK SEES IN HER? YOU LOOK AT COMPETENT, BRILLIANT, KIND, BRAVE, PROUD, RESOURCEFUL, CLEVER UHURA AND YOU TELL ME THE REASON SOMEONE WOULD LOVE HER IS BECAUSE SHE’S HOT?? I HATE YOU SO MUCH GOD DAMN
IT’S PRETTY OBVIOUS THAT YOU THINK SPOCK IS YOUR SELF-INSERT CHARACTER, THE NERD WHO ~MIRACULOUSLY~ GETS THE GIRL. WELL FUCK YOU, JJ. UHURA’S NOT YOUR PRIZE ANY MORE THAN KIRK IS YOUR PUNCHLINE.
GET THE HELL OUT. AND DON’T COME BACK.

if you need a good summation of 21st century gender relations I would direct your attention to the passage in the illiad where achilles falls in love with hippolyta at the exact moment he is murdering her and then has the temerity to throw a tantrum about it
Millennia before refridgerators were even invented.
