Okay answer me this because I am genuinely confused

Everyone in the world seems convinced that Jo is in love with Laurie in Little Women

But when I read Little Women, it seemed pretty clear to me that she wasn't, what with her constantly thinking of Laurie as her best friend and then later her brother and then thinking to herself all the time, "I really hope Laurie isn't in love with me because I'm not in love with him and I would never be able to return his feelings because I don't see him that way and I don't want to hurt him"

When he proposes to her she's in a lot of pain because she knows where this is going and what she'll have to say to him, but people say, "Wow so romantic she rejects him even though she's still in love with him!!!"

When was she ever in love with him?!? Where tf did that come from in your brains??? I do not understand it

Not to mention that Jo is based on Louisa May herself and Laurie is based on someone who she viewed as her nephew/son in real life

And when Jo meets Mr. Bhaer she falls in love with him quite quickly and recognizes that feeling as being in love

Why are people so insistent that Jo loves Laurie when every piece of evidence I've been able to find goes against it? For real I'm genuinely confused and would love an answer beyond "Well it's obvious!"

#is this a dracula situation?#academia said that and people just believed it even though it's nowhere in the book?#or do people just want jo and laurie to get together so badly that they read that into the story and convinced themselves it was real?#little women #louisa may alcott #jo and laurie #jo march #josephine march #laurie laurence #theodore laurence #theodore laurie laurence

Can we talk about how aspec coded Jo March is in the Greta Gerwig movie. I mean you can sort of see it in other iterations but in this one it’s just very much there

Let me qoute some of the lines that Jo said

“I don’t see why I can’t love you as you want me to. I don’t know why. I can’t change how I feel and it would be a lie to say I do when I don’t. I’m sorry, Teddy, I’m so sorry, but I can’t help it… I can’t say “Yes” truly so I won’t say it at all”

That line hurts. The entire argument scene hurt and really stood out to me.

Then of course there is “I don’t believe I will ever marry. I’m happy as I am, and love my liberty too well to be in any hurry to give it up.”

“Women. They have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they’ve got ambition. And they’ve got talent as well as just beauty. And I’m so sick of people saying that love is just all a woman is fit for. I’m so sick of it. But I’m so lonely.”

This one I literally cried at. There’s such this focus in society even now for women to find the right guy and settle down. If all a women is fit for is love and I can’t do that where does that leave me? A lot of the time I feel like I missed a necessary piece of girlhood. Because all the girls around you gush about the boys the like and when they ask your crush you have nothing to give them.

Then of course there’s the whole “I care more to be loved.” “That is not the same as loving” dialogue. That’s very cupioromantic coded but even as an aro I find it relatable because it’s not that I want a romantic partner it’s just that I want somebody to do life with. And everybody tells you that your options are either to be alone or married.

You know, I still wait at the edge of town

Praying straight to God that maybe you'll come back around

I cry every day and the bottles make it worse

'Cause you were the only one I was never scared to tell I hurt

And I found photographs of our school, on the day we met

I thought that you were so beautiful, it was love, I guess

And you might never come back home, and I may never sleep at night

But God, I just hope you're doing fine out there, I just pray that you're alright

Little women thoughts, tell me if I'm crazy: What I love about Jo and Laurie is that Laurie wants to subconsciously be a woman while Jo desperately wants to be a man. They're both stuck in the gender roles they were born with and I think that's why they bond so well. Laurie has no want to go to college and run his grandfathers business. He wants to stay at home, write music and be with the March girls. And Jo desperately wants to see the world and be taken seriously like a man. Why shes so reluctant to get married(besides hating change) because she fears being forced in a man's role. Which is the crazy reason why I ship them so much. Like if they could Laurie would happily be Jo's wife and Jo wouldn't mind being his husband.

I had never seen things like that for Laurie but my god, you are right !

There is definitely a very feminine side to Laurie’s character !

Personally, I ship Jo and Laurie in all versions. But the one from 1994 is the very first one I saw and has a special place in my heart. Winona Ryder playing Jo is one of my favorite actresses, and this version made me fall in love with Jo and Laurie. I never understood why they didn't end up together. For me, either Jo should have ended up with Laurie, or single.

I don't particularly like the character of friedrich. Afterwards, I like the 2019 version, for the simple reason that the ending is interpretable according to the director and we can imagine that Jo may not in fact end up with this guy...

But I generally agree that I think Jo and Laurie would have had a good and happy marriage, at least for sure in the 1994 version where the actors have overwhelming chemistry.

THIS FUCKING KISSING SCENE ?!

Why does no one ever talk about the parallels between the Laurie and Jo failed proposal and Laurie and Amy confession scene?

The fact that both March sisters when they realize what Laurie is going to say respond with “No, no” then Laurie’s “I’ve loved you ever since I’ve known you Jo” parallels Amy’s “I’ve spent my entire life loving you.”

This is driving me insane. I keep thinking about it.
