#rich people stereotypes

Izuku 🤝 Ochako

Thinking their creepy af, crazy af, blood thirsty blonde counterpart is the cutest things in the whole world

#you know what’s scarier than a psychopath? #their delusional love interest who thinks they’re baby #Hori really do be loving his inverted/upended stereotypes #Deku and Uravity look so doe eyed but they have such a carnal craving for justice and vengeance #that they seem to get off on being beaten down to their pith #meanwhile the ones you think from a surface level glance are terrifying goblin people are continually placed in these #damsel in distress ‘oh where art thou my great hero come at last to save me from my turmoil’ moments #and honestly I love it #they make for such a dynamic and rich story without having to over saturate anything

Im really really hoping the theory about Wille having a birthday in s3 are true because i want Simon to give him a gift SO BADLY. I want it to be something sweet and whimsical and soft bc Wille deserves whimsy in his life. Even if it is a gag gift that Wille actually ends up keeping. I really want the stuffed animal frog like i mentioned in my unhinged s3 list bc its the opposite of the snow globe with the hard (now jagged) edges. Like a soft stuffed frog (no crown) it would be so cute :(((((( But really Simon giving Wille any kind of sweet simple gift would be so cute to me.

Editing to add a picture of what i am envisioning bc i’m annoying like that! Pls just imagine it !

#i fear young royals might be too serious to do something like this #but simon’s stuffed animal and sara’s horse stuffed animal are feeding my hopes of wille having a atuffed animal s3 #plus u know when the rich person has everythinn the could ask for but then they get something thats not expensive but very mesmingful? #idk if thats a real trope but i love if #i am also stereotypical autistic person who has 500 stuffed animals and i think everyone should have the same #i thought i posted this days ago but oh well #simon deserve whimsy too but idk i think wille making him the sandwiches and taking care of him is more what i want vs a gift #unless its like a promise ring or him giving simon something sentimental that belongs to him idk i cant explain it #plus i think it would feel vulnerable for simon to give wille something and hope he likes it which would be soooo cuteee i love shy simon #wilmon #simon eriksson #prince wilhelm #young royals #young royals s3 #yr spoiler #<tagging as a spoiler incase people dont want fan theories or something im sorry #yr s3 spoilers

Hi, sorry for it to sound like I was asking you to change your pfp, English is not my first language, so I sometimes end up saying things wrong. I actually thought the image was cool and tried comparing it to something I like, thinking it may be the same thing. And we do have a blue-eyed blonde who famously wears a red coat

(I don't know how to put an image here, but his name is Enjolras)

No problem friend! I know how it is, English isn't my first language either and you were merely likening my profile picture to something that brought you enjoyment! Which, wow. I looked Enjolras up and a lot of fanart of the guy has features that bear extreme resemblance to my little mermaid man.... here's some trends I noticed put into a single comparison, how crazy is this!??

Now I know where to look if I ever want to pretend like Ahti II has a fandom where he's dramatic and holding guns and/or flags /lh

#obviously there can only be so many combinations of features as to there be at least two similar swedish blond blue eyed white men #god knows fandoms love those! #and i even consciously based ahti II off of the stereotype of the rich scandinavian (most people in-universe assume hes swedish) #but... woah!!! woah mama!!!!! holy shit!!!!! what a world right? i never knew much about les mis but then i find out they have this man!!! #ahti II #my art #this week we really are ahtiposting huh.... keep them coming! i love this man

...no, I still disagree with you.

i've seen the argument. i've seen you and others restate that argument. multiple times. and it's still no more solid than the opposition. 🤷‍♀️

a factual point is that B has destroyed so much more than W ever has, or ever could.

otherwise. you have no right to label people as bigots for not adhering to your headcanon.

#the role that you're describing... is pretty clearly meant to be filled by... J himself. in canon. #W is an afterthought. at best. #and you can make him whatever he needs to be for your story. #but. you really are just setting yourself up for disappointment to beatify this guy who exists as scraps of scraps. #which i am fully aware is rich to say in JT fandom. #but if J is untapped potential that was meant for more before being derailed and repurposed and revisited #then the posthumous supporting cast of his backstory are less than the shadow of shapeless smoke. #BG's bio parents have more characterization than W! and they hardly exist most of the time! #the saint that you need W to be for your lovely story #isn't what others must see. #and shut the fuuuuuuuuck up for just the slightest implication people wouldn't love their abusers #abusers are some of the most beloved people on the planet #many tend to collect vulnerable lonely people desperate to love something. #we are biologically wired to love our parents. that love can overcome ridiculous amounts of absolute BS. #abused kids aren't freaks or outliers or non-entities for loving their abusers. they're normal and more common than many want to accept. #and people in poverty statistically struggle to leave shitty male-dominated households. that's fact not just stereotype. #My cowardly vague post is cowardly. #If you manage to find this post and be upset by it then congrats.

speaking of chuuoku/bat comparisons!!!! otome and kuukou have very similar takes on fashion where they combine traditional clothing with something more modern!!!!!!

both grew up in traditional households and want to subvert their traditions, so for both it may be a symbol of that

#this is vee speaking #with otome i do think there’s an extra step in that in where she is wearing what she grew up with #like idk listening to her drama track about her past i got the sense her family was living like rich white people #rather than rich japanese stereotypes lol but that’s an entire different conversation lol otome is ridiculously layered lol #but she’s a mix of wanting newer values while embracing the old #and kuukou is very much the same way tho i wouldn’t quite say he’s embracing it lmao #and i think it’d be fun if kuukou’s mom was just like otome!!!!!! #that she was a temple maiden and was arranged to marry shakku but was tired of buddhism rules and wanted to live freely so she left— #WOAH WHAT??? HUH????? HC SNEAKS ABOUT KUUKOUS MOM IN A POST ABOUT OTOME AND KUUKOU WHAT????? HUH????? #c: kuukou👑 #c: otome

just saw someone recycling ye olde "X character doesn't read as Y identity to me, someone who doesn't & has never held that identity & thus am not as intimately familiar with mannerisms, tropes & characterizations that are typically associated with Y identity. There is no evidence for X being Y and you guys are acting insane."

like. do you understand that you are using the EXACT SAME excuse that other people are using to shit on YOUR headcanon that you're so attatched too because it has so much evidence?

did it ever cross your mind that it would probably be harder for you, person who isn't X, to pick up on subtler tropes & identifiers of X that you've never experienced because you aren't X?

like you get how it sounds like you're shitting on other wueer people?

#blocking another god damn fantasy high account that i really liked #because when people say 'theres no evidence for your headcanon' and theyre wrong its bad and tbeyre erasing underrepresented identities #but when YOU say 'theres no evidence for this' you are good and correct and the rest of us are just stupid weirdos #like oh my fucking god bro #if i see one more person who isnt fucking gay say 'erm actually fabian cant be gay he liked girls' im gonna lose it #gay men also experience comphet! #and it's not because he's 'effeminate' #because he really isn't THAT effeminate or flamboyant #he dances and he talks like a rich boy and those are the only two things i can think lf #that make him seem 'effeminate' #but like. dude rides a motorcycle from hell. he fights with a sword and plays football #he punched someone on the first day of school & routinely punches and gets punched by his friends #like. fabian is wildly more stereotypically masculine than he is feminine #most of us think Fabian is gay because up until he took interest in Mazey #he had exclusively expressed interest in girls that were unavailable or unobtainable #his 'type' was literally toxic and/or unavailable women #which SCREAMS comphet to anyone who has fucking experienced it before #'yeah i love women but only the ones i cant have amirite lads' #'classic completely heterosexual man behavior' #anyway #i think its incredibly rude to take people seeing their lived experiences in a character and say 'youre insane bc i dont see it' #especially when YOU YOURSELF have a headcanon that a huge chunk of people cannot understand fully but accept anyway because they get it #because they understand seeing yourself in a character and how important that can be #unlike you #vagueposting #me when i vague for the first time in like 3 years

someone: jkr is horrible-

me: yeah, i completely agree with you there

someone: -which is why you should stan uncle rick rick riordan instead :)

me:

#rick riordan critical #PLEASE take your head out of your ass #rick riordan is not as bad as jkr but posing his books as the ‘more diverse’ and acting like he’s a great awesome ally to minorities #is just. incredibly naive #piper with feathers! unhealthy age gaps in relationships! the only gay character (at that point) suffering constantly and then being outed- #in front of a complete stranger! incredibly shallow and often misogynistic portrayal female characters! general insensitivity and ignorance #of other cultures! a transphobic portrayal of a genderfluid person who gets called a slur by one of the GOOD characters! shallow and ableist #portrayal of adhd! ableism in saying his characters don’t have push because they’re ‘too strong’! no physically disabled characters! #his incredibly lesbophobic response to people saying reyna reads as gay to them! #this is literally just the tip of the iceberg #rr is NOT some woke intelligent savour he’s a grown ass man who doesn’t have people of the cultures/groups he’s writing about to check if #it’s harmful or incorrect or stereotypical!! #he’s a rich cishet white man with a victim complex when people call him out on his shit. #rr stans don’t interact with me i do not want to hear it #tbh the only reason why he’s ‘better’ than jkr is because he doesn’t have her level of influence #god. shudder. i don’t want to think about that #dove talks #hi it’s 4pm and im so angry. #will admit that anyone saying percy jackson would beat harry potter in a fight is 100% #like we can agree on that one.

gotta be honest here if u rationalise max’s parent characterisation as “indians who don’t know english” i do not want u here

#like. do 200000+ of english speaking indians mean nothing to you #like. it isnt a first language. its only there for christians #in india btw. like a lot of ppl in goa learn english as THIER FIRST LANGUAGE BECAUSE THEY ARE CHRISTIANS #NOT EVEN COUNTING SOUTH INDIANS AND NORTHEASTERN INDIANS USING ENGLISH MORE AS A BRIDGE LANGUAGE #A LOT OF INDIANS DONT KNOW HINDI BECAUSE IT ISNT THE NATIONAL LANGUAGE #ITS LIKE. 45% OF THE DAMN COUNTRY #PLUS. THEY ARE IMMIGRANTS. IMMIGRANTS. YOU KNOW. PEOPLE WHO WILL ATLEAST HAVE SOME IDEA OF ENGLISH #THEYRE RICH ENOUGH TO IMMIGRATE TO A NEW COUNTRY IN MOST LIKELY 2004 BASED ON MAX’S AGE. ITS VERY LIKELY MAX’S PARENTS KNOW ENGLISH THAN #THEY DONT. #DUDE. THEYD KNOW WHAT ALLERGIES ARE. THEY GAVE BIRTH. MOST PARENTS INTERNATIONALLY KNOW IT IN ENG #im sorry im rly mad abt this i saw the worst post ever recently and it’s rly odd how performative this fandom gets #like ok. let’s just call immigrants uneducated on english and perpetuate stereotypes that cause hatecrimes i guess!! we just ended racism!! #dadvid still isnt ok btw guys /s #like atp ure just a performative and ignorant person. like. #max parents hcs are a particular litmus test if a person is a performative white activist or not #im sorry for all of this in the tags but i was seething abt this a little since. well. uhm. yknow. #camp camp #cc max

Probably one of the most unfortunate things about RWBY is, for all it's inclusion of characters of color, there's no real cultural identity behind any of it

Outside of names, what is there to identify Yang or Ren or Sun as Asian? Other than skin tone, what marks Emerald as a Black woman? What marks Maria as hispanic besides her surname and clothes loosely inspired by Dio de los Muertos?

The few times crwby genuinely tried to tie these things together have ended in total failure. Flynt Coal is so unambiguously Black that his weapon and design are just Jazz... and that's his entire character. The Black One to counter our White Hero for 4.2 minutes, then claim he digs her style, thus negating every relevant real-world implication of a large, wealthy white family driving small time entrepreneurs of color out of business

Every single attempt at inclusion is through such a glaringly White lens that it's no wonder that people often mistake Sun or Ironwood as white despite being named after a Chinese deity or being modeled after their Asian VA. And that's so disappointing in ways I don't think I could ever truly put into words

#rwde #idk man #im thinking abt how all my ancestors cultures have been boiled down to nothing but White and im fucking mad #i cant even imagine how it must be on the other side #my cultures were erased to appease a power structure my ancestors wanted an in to but other folks had theirs STOLEN #to have your identity stolen then repackaged to you in the most insincere way possible by idiots who think they know best #its a disgrace unlike any other #anyway this is a v long winded way of saying please let other cultures have a chance in fantasy/sci fi settings #let black characters have kinky hair and cornrows and african specific jewelry like the lip gauges and gold neck rings #let asian characters be more than aesthetics and ramen and wisdom spouting gurus #and also remember asia is a big fucking continent so theres a myriad of cultures under the Asian name w lots of history and conflict #we are well beyond the point of pinning all Asian rep on one character a la Hikari Sulu #also also remember that indigenous people EXIST #and they exist beyond bandit stereotypes or as nObLe SaVaGeS #also middle eastern folks could def use some rep beyond evil terrorists and helpless victims in need of rescue (by americans!!1!) #this doesnt even cover shit like religious or disabled or queer cultures- all of which have rich complicated histories that affect today #there are so many things to consider when building a world from scratch and they did absolutely NOTHING AHHHHHHHHH

hi! i recently came across your blog and i love everything i'm seeing! a quick question that i hope makes sense, tips on making ocs in the sims? when creating a character do you know off the bat their ethnicity and all those details or is it just randomly making them? i'm trying to create some characters that have been bouncing around my head but i get stuck on the details

hmmm ik the process is diff for everyone but me personally i usually trawl my face inspo pinterest board for ideas if i'm like deliberately making a character for Something... i almost never stick to a single face i usually cherrypick what i feel works for the character and kind of riff off of what i feel like their i guess place and emotional standpoint would make sense.. in. i guess 😭😭 im sorry im just saying shit but sometimes its random sometimes its not but i like to keep it as loose as possible initially and i decide specific ethnicity/religion/etc etc etc like... once i'm pretty much complete

#this goes for people raised in western white centric societies as i was but its like really good to decentre whiteness as the norm also? #like im not awake enough 2 articulate it but characters can be. so full and rich and not just a cut out stereotype #its a hard thing to unlearn! but very much worth it #ask #reply #anonymous #one weird thing i hard to remove from my head was theres never smth as Too Many Nonwhite Characters in like a team #bcos sooo often like kids shows shit we grew up with would be like white mc with brown hair white mc with red hair white mc with glasses #and then the poc character. only one in the whole show. like it doesnt have to be that way ykn #okay wow im just rambling now sorey... im gna sleep

working on a gothic novel i gave up on two years ago is fun because since then i have come out, given up entirely on “good representation”, and gotten interested in marxist feminism. amazing how much of the problems with the original draft are solved by these things

#merricat.txt #like yes making my trans girl protagonist super dishonest and the lesbian romance subplot super predatory #plays into some bad stereotypes #but like i am in fact a trans girl who enjoys lying and thinks the predatory lesbian stereotype is sexy #like art is supposed to communicate things and what this is communicating is that I suck and it’s morally fine to poison rich people #a more serious take on these tags is that artistically i am super interested in complicity and the #eroticisation of power and I’m glad I feel more comfortable exploring these things now

[maletofujoshi]

there's like a bit of me that kinda gets the "don't make being gay your personality" thing but only when I'm met with people where it seems the only thing they try to relate to me and others with is like, being lgbt. like if someone is like "haha we're both gay" 20 times a day it makes my head want to explode. for the love of god talk about anything else and maybe a little less flippant about outing people

#sending a psychic attack on a rich he/they i know who doesn't seem to view people that arent lgbt as like. having dignity #like. don't be Weird about it. #also like. idk im like... 'flamboyant' and gay sounding irl but it's so uncomfortable when ppl connect that to stereotypes... #im just having fun and talking the way i talk... #im complaining about something that is probably just specific to me

unasked for kadi facts:

spent my entire life in a deep south state. currently smack between two of the largest cities in the region, one an hour and a half away, the other 15 minutes away without traffic.

people peg me as being from utah based on my accent/speech patterns though.

#it's one of hose weird cosmic jokes that people who do not know me and meet me for the first time peg me as being from out west. #and very specifically the utah/nevada region. i dont get it but it keeps happening and this is what i mean by tv lied to you. #the only people with traditionally 'southern' accents i know irl are all either 70+. came from a rich family. #or came from even further south in the state. #like im sure people around me have an accent to outsiders regardless it's just. not the stereotype if that makes sense. #out of stories

#fighting w friends over crazy rich asians who r saying it wasn't an amazing movie #that's literally not the point #it's about seeing someone who looks like you on the silver screen #someone like you who is usually playing some super stereotypical racist role #and nothing else #it's about seeing a romcom with asians in it #that's not disregarded as 'just a chinese movie for chinese ppl' #it's about seeing asians in a mainstream movie where they're not reduced down to being asian #they're just people #it's about the fact that chinese kids that grew up in canada experienced racism to the point where we would hate being chinese #hiding all the parts of us that were #wishing we were white instead of chinese so we wouldn't be seen as ugly/nerdy/submissive/etc #choosing english names for ourselves in an attempt to hide our ancestry #unable to dodge the anchor of our last names that give us away #representation matters so so so fucking much #you're not going to get oscar winners for every movie with or about asians a la parasite or eeaao #it doesn't have to be perfect #it just has to exist #and this friend just keep saying it wasn't a good movie #ok?? it wasn't made for chinese kids who grew up in china #it was made for us

very happy for the gaysian love story that fire island created. very disappointed that they completely sidelined torian miller's character while claiming to discuss the racism and fatphobia within the gay community.

#sigh #very frustrating to see Black people being sidelined and stereotyped in movies hailed as hallmarks of (east) asian representation #see also: turning red + crazy rich asians/the farewell casting awkwafina

can i be really really honest with you guys as excited as i was when it was announced i uh. i dont think desiquest is gonna be good

#sree.txt #everythign about it is just kind of giving the butter chicken of ttrpg if that makes sense #like. the shallowest conceptualization of what desi culture is #made palatable for Everyone and by that i mean white people and specifically white americans #i think. if we are being real i think theyre leaning too hard into it #i'm deeply wary as an indian american of indian american ''representation'' #and based on what i can see on their website (to be fair i have not watched the ep yet and likely wont for some time i am too busy) #i dont know. if your whole party is just Playing Into Stereotypes about Indian People in order to maybe subvert them #cmon man this isnt 2011 and youre not lilly singh #idk theres such a rich set of cultural elements to delve into and use #and also like consider cultural injustices and aspects of The Desi Identity that are not present in more mainstream south asian shit #but i dont think desiquest is doing that #it just seems so far like a lot of hey guys we're BROWN. chai TEA!!!!! look at my ethnic font and silly accent teehee im an aunty #like oh......... this isnt meaningful #AGAIN IM BEING A HATER PREEMPTIVELY THOUGH i have not watched the episode #but it suuuuper is giving indian kid who's never questioned what their parents raised them with idk #very american derogatory #still the cast is wonderful and i've seen most of them in other settings where i've been Impressed!!!!! i'll give it a chance i'm just #wary #sorry but sandeep and rekha's pc descriptions are so corny and tired. what YEAR is it that youre still making my-kid-must-be-a-doctor jokes
