In Heartbreak High Sasha and Spider are not villians. There is nothing evil about them. When watching the show I didn't think anything about their behavior. I thought that's literally how the kids at my school act. They are just asshole kids who won't keep their mouths shut. It's very clear that not everyone went to a public school or have been bullied because those two aren't the kids who hurt people. The kids who are villians are the ones that pick on you for appearance, having a weaker personality, and anyone who is different. Sasha and Spider didn't do that. Yes, Sasha was selfish when it came for Quinni and Spider was a total piece of work. But their neither bullies or evil.
Explain to me your opinion if you think I'm wrong.

not enough people are talking about the fact that I’m hbh season 2, principal woodsy was such a support system for Harper. I’m only up to ep2 rn so idk what happens after, but atm she’s teaching Harper to drive, she’s supporting her decision to drop the case and telling her to put herself first. She notices Harper and does her best to help in the way Harper wants to be helped, not in the way she thinks Harper needs to be helped, and idk I thought that was a really special side story

No rw Rowan looked at Malakai for 0.2 seconds and developed a crush.
- looked disappointed when that girl got between them during the photo and he had to stand next to Amarie instead.
- looked Malakai up and down when they first got introduced and was flirting hard during the tour
-the whole freaking hand scene while troye Sivan is playing?!
Man had a fuck ass Bob and a single ring and Malakai is ready to keep exploring his bisexuality!

(Spoilers for HBH Season 2)
So I just finished season two of heart break high and I have SO much to say. but for this post I'm talking about Spider.
If you happen to be a long time follower of mine you know I'm a WHORE for redemption arcs. I eat them up. I also love characters who are so damaged and broken, yet have such potential to change for the good.
And I think that's Spider.
I feel like this season did such a good job with his storyline. They really put their all into his character, and he's instantly shot to my top characters.
Spider is a classic case of "toxic masculinity." A hormonal, sex obsessed, teenage boy with misogynistic takes. He doesn't take SLT's seriously, especially the parts about emotional topics. And so it's easy to hate him, especially in season one. Still, then the show gave us glimpses of Spider being a sorta decent person. It's clear to us that he's not irredeemable. He's just being a dumb teenage boy.
And then season two.
In the beginning he's being his usual self. His Misogyny amped up right from the get go. He ditches SLT's. He doesn't like the mushy gushy "wokeness" (though, those aren't his words) of it. He claims it's a class blaming men for all the problems in the world and storms out.
He and a bunch of the SLT's boy's leave in favor of Coach Voss's C.U.M.L.O.R.D.S (Don't ask what it stands for, I can't be bothered to remember). There, Voss teaches them a bunch of "masculine" things. And tries to open their eyes to the "woke agenda."
Eventually Voss's group and SLT's get into conflict and solve it through a sports match of (football?). This is when Spider starts to fall in love with missy.
I adore there relationship. Their subtle flirting from that point on is just adorable and awkward and hilarious. Their rivalry just adds os much to the relationship. Eventually they start to be hookup buddies. But Spider refuses to have "actual" sex. (I use quotations because the notion is dumb, but you all know what I mean).
Missy is confused, and feels like Spider isn't all in with her. So she shows up to his house in a risqué outfit to turn him on and eventually sleep with him.
Only to find his mom home and having dinner with him.
This introduction of Spiders mom is so crucial for his development.
At first, she's introduced to us as this strong willed woman. A feminist who won't stand for any man's bullshit. Missy and her hit it off right away, lightly making fun of Spider throughout the meal. And it's all really harmless. Until it's not.
Spiders mom confides in Missy that Spider's an IVF baby. That she's worried about Spider and his "dangerous b.s." She talks about dreams she's had where Spider is arrested for committing some of the vilest acts imaginable against women (if you catch my drift). She talks about this all, right in front of him. To his face! And more yet, she even asks if all problems would be better in the world if All men were erased from the planet. And while she doesn't come out and say it, it's implied this would include her son.
This really shows us why Spider is the way he is.
Because imagine. The one person on the planet who is supposed to love you unconditionally, thinks you're capable of some of the vilest shit ever. Raises you and let's you know that they think you're going to grow up to be terrible and assault people. That's fucked up.
And Missy says it best: That's what they think [you] are, that's what [you'll] be.
After a whole lifetime of being told how terrible you will be, how awful you are, you just begin to become what they've ingrained into your mind that you already are.
Obviously, Spider doesn't assault anyone. But he becomes misogynistic. Has very biased views of gender roles and the world. Say's things like that. Becoming the type of man his mother always told him he was.
It also makes sense why he thought SLT's was a "man hating" class. Because he grew up in a household with a mother who genuinely just was a "man hater." He was projecting.
But Missy tells him, it's not too late to decide who he wants to be. He doesn't have to be what everyone say's he is. And thus begins Spiders fantastic character development.
He starts to amend his ways, become better. He get's rid of his sexual posters, stops saying super Misogynistic things, he even says he'll drop out of the School Captain race.
And yes, he does lash out when Missy says they could never be together. He reverts for a moment. Goes back to the only coping mechanism he's ever known. But eventually, he finds his way again.
It's obviously not a fully fledged "redemption" arc. But it's a phenomenal start. And it really gives me hope for season three!

It is really saddening to me seeing non-Australian viewers respond to Missy and Malakai’s characters on Heart Break High the way that they are.
The questioning of their skin colour and ethnicity is perpetuating really harmful public discourse that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people face every day.
Please, if you’re not Australian and particularly if you only have a US-centric understanding of race and identity, please spend five minutes on google to educate yourself on Indigenous Australia before publicly articulating harmful and frankly racist ideas like questioning Missy and Malakai’s skin colour and whether they have “the right” to call themselves Blak (yes, Blak, google it), or “headcanoning Malakai as Latino”.
I will let Kuku-Yalanji, Waanyi, Gangalidda, Woppaburra, Bundjalung and Biripi man, Steven Oliver, explain why Australians, and in particular Indigenous Australians, are upset at the reactions to these two characters:

MORE ON HEARTBREAK HIGH S2 In the trailer we see a bunch of new pairings between everyone and i'm excited to see where it will go! although i was really hoping for s2 we'd get some friends to lovers Ant and Spider, i never hear people talk about this ship!!! i think it would be great to see some struggle and figuring out internalized homophobia. there's still a chance but i doubt it and im a little sad still excited to see what they do though

Right i have a question for the people that have read “Solitaire” by Alice Oseman AND watched “Heart Break High”
Now i asked reddit the same but nobody new what the hell i was on about so hope tumblr might help. so i watched season two of heartbreak high (and loved it) then a week after read solitaire, i realised they seem VERY similar, (spoiler), the school on fire, the pranks, the pranker ending up being the unexpected, the bestfriend breakup, liking two boys, the list goes on, please tell me im not the only one who has noticed the overlap!!!!!!!!

(kind of self projecting into the rant cuz I feel like shit and yapping makes me feel better) (ALSO READ IT ALL THE WAY CUZ IM NOT ATTACKING AMERIE, I LOVE HER WITH ALL MY LIFE)
RANT BELOW THE CUT :DD
Tumblr media
Dude the way amerie was acting in the first episode? I felt personally attacked. Obviously she wanted to protect Harper and all, but dude, I felt so seen.
In the first season she got her life completely destroyed, her best friend hated her and she didn't even know why. And even if she acted like she was fine, she wasn't, that shit destroys you, especially if it's one of your best friends (speaking from personal experience)
So, maybe I'm projecting, maybe I'm not, but the way I see it she was desperately trying to protect Harper because she didn't want to go through the same shit again. (Also to actually protect Harper, but yk)
And yes, you can make up with friends that suddenly acted like they hated you, but the reality is that you feel like you're walking around eggshells all the time around them, specially when it's something that's similar to what triggered the first attack in the first place (ex, the first day of school for amerie and Harper)
This is my personal experience, but last year I had a shit time with some of my friends and it was triggered by me being nonverbal, so now every time I go nonverbal at school I feel like shit, and even if I know my friends are ok with it, my brain just automatically connects being nonverbal with the thing they did to me.
Maybe I'm just projecting too much or reading into it, but either way it felt amazing to feel seen, seeing amerie go through the same shit I did (obviously not to the same extent, my thing wasn't as heavy as amerie's, but you get the point)
So yeah, amerie my girl, I will defend you all my life 🦅🦅

criminal frankly that they didn't make Ant and Spider a thing, cause those two are the most repressed homosexual teens I've ever seen.
