Reminder that if your feminism revolves around propping up women that partake in traditionally masculine activities/roles and shitting on or even hating women who embody traditionally feminine roles and enjoy feminine activities you’re not really a feminist.

It sets the precedent that women are only valuable and valid if they have traditionally masculine traits, which feeds a narrative that masculine traits are better simply because they are associated with men who are the ideal. It perpetuates the idea that things that are feminine and traditionally associated with women are in fact inferior to men/masculinity and should be looked down upon and belittled.

And, it alienates so many individuals that feel more comfortable in femininity, regardless of gender identity.

I think people in the ASOIAF fandom really need to learn this because feminine characters are so despised on the basis that they are not “better” women. Simply because they don’t embody traditionally masculine things like conquering or fighting.

Much of the hate comes from stans that love characters like Rhaenyra, Daenerys, and Arya (and do not get me wrong I love Arya), who are women and girls that are in positions that allow for more traditionally masculine behaviors and tomboyishness. And they will say incredibly sexist things about how the other women in media are inferior and directly contrast these women to their faves negatively by pointing out that they’re “too weak” or “subservient”. They reduce femininity to weakness and bowing to patriarchy instead of considering that some people have a different, more feminine nature. And that is OK! Just because a woman isn’t wielding a sword or fighting on the front lines or pursuing leadership roles in masculine ways (because historically women exacted and sought power in different ways than men) doesn’t mean they aren’t valuable and strong characters. Do not use feminine characters as a negative comparison to show how “feminist” and great your fave is. Because it’s just so blatantly sexist.

Don’t fall into the trap of reinforcing patriarchal rhetoric!!! Don’t reinforce narratives that traditional masculinity is superior to femininity!! Don’t belittle feminine activities and act as if they aren’t valuable!!! Girbosses are great but so are gentlewomen.

#This may not make total sense but I hope the point gets across anyways #Masculinity is not superior to femininity #And if you actively say that your female faves that are masculine are better than feminine characters… #You feed the narrative that those behaviors are inherently better simply because they are associated with MEN #anti team black #anti targaryen #anti rhaenyra #anti rhaenyra targaryen #anti daenerys targaryen #anti daenerys #anti Arya stans #anti dany stans #anti rhaenyra stans #anti got fandom #anti hotd fandom #team black’s feminism is insanity #feminism

It's always, "If Rhaenyra were in Alicent's position, she would have done the same or probably worse to Dyana," and never "If Alicent were in Rhaenyra's position, she definitely would have raped Laenor and outed him and destroyed his life if it didn't work."

And one is definitely more likely than the other...

Very funny to me how Stansas present her character as being so interesting and complex because of her vulnerabilities, while simultaneously ignoring those same vulnerabilities in other characters. Dany is sold as a bridal slave and lacks agency throughout AGOT and after. Her dragons are either too young/small to utilize effectively or locked away for the majority of the story. They aren't some all-powerful trump card that protects her from harm. Arya is captured as a prisoner of war, forced to watch countless people tortured and murdered, and then essentially enslaved in Harrenhal with no way to fight back. She has an entire arc of feeling powerless, of being a "mouse", during ACOK. She doesn't have "kung-fu" or the ability to magically fight her way out of every situation, she's a young child lacking physical strength with only the most basic sword training.

Sansa isn't the only female character, she isn't the only young character, she isn't the only character who suffered, and no one is obligated to prioritize her. I'm so tired of Dany and Arya being mischaracterized and having their stories erased to prop Sansa up. "Sansa has kept her dignity" In other words, let's praise her for having a level of security that Dany and Arya don't have access to. She hasn't ever been forced to make a hard decision which of course means that she's morally superior to them. They can't even admit to themselves that her lack of action is due to her own passivity. If it doesn't fit their delusion, they erase it from the story and expect the rest of us to play along. Ask one of them what they like about her character without bringing up her being the ultimate victim, and I genuinely don't believe they'd be able to give you an answer. They belittle other characters more than they talk about her and these takes just scream insecurity/jealousy at the content and development other characters have in their POVs.

It’s so crazy how we went from cottagecore babygirl lesbians to estranged toxic yuri to a complicated situationship to war wives all in a span of a season like damn girls we really can’t be happy huh?

friendly reminder for team green stans that always pointing out the fact that rhaenyra's children are bastard do not in any way help your cause, you're basically admit that rhaenyra's bastards can exceed alicent's true born. From one side you have jacaerys and lucerys, two kind and gentle boy who do their duty (train with the sword and study) who are always respectful and honorable, from the other you have aegon who spend his days drinking wine, visiting brothel and watch his own bastard fight and aemond who is shown to be impulsive and violent, and of course a kinslayers.

“Baela shrieks with her father’s anger.”

“Jace the closest to Aemond in age —”

“Aemond puts his hands around Luke’s throat, throttling him.”

“You will die screaming in flames just as your father did.”

“…comes at Aemond, who readies the big rock.”

“He counters, smashing Jace’s face in with the rock.”

I’m gonna knock some teeth out ‘closest to Aemond in age’ and he was canonically 6 to Aemond’s 10. Jace and Luke were the only ones really involved with the fight in the book, and it’s stated multiple times that Aemond had the clear advantage over them and was beating them ruthlessly. It was a clear power play on his part that quickly turned sour because the younger brother feared for both his and his older brothers life (as he should, the kid was 5 fucking years old).

I know why they added the Dragon Twins to the fight, and it was solely to infantilize Aemond even further than they already had (and demonize the girls and the Velaryon boys in turn). Sure, I’m supposed to feel sorry for him because he was bullied for not having a dragon (boo fucking hoo); but I’m not supposed to feel sorry for the twins after they just lost their mother, considering how quickly that storyline was left in the dust to further Aemond’s. I’m not supposed to feel sorry for the woman and kids who were targeted purely due to their blood/gender (but that doesn’t matter ofc just that they’re bastards and harming poor helpless trueborn baby Aemond how dare they).

The agenda being pushed in the show is obviously full of microagressions against these kids — the Velaryons were made into POC just to make certain the audience knew that Rhaenyra’s first three children were bastards, and Baela and Rhaena were added to the fight to show them as the ‘true’ aggressors to the entire situation. It didn’t matter that they had lost their mom recently, it didn’t matter that they didn’t even know who Aemond was. They had one of the last living relics of their mother stolen out from under them by this random kid who immediately insults them to their faces for having the audacity to be upset, but HE is the victim here. Jace had just found out about Harwin being his bio dad and then lost him within a short amount of time. He was being openly mocked and told he and his baby brother were going to die in the exact same way at Aemond’s hand. But no, no! Don’t jump to the obvious conclusion; AEMOND is the victim here.

Four grieving children reacted on their extremely volatile emotions, with one acting on fear alone, and it ended poorly for all parties involved— who would’ve thought?

[alicentsgf]

rhaenyra fans and alicent fans main beef is just that we measure our love by completely different metrics it literally makes no sense to fight we should get gay married instead. kiss kiss

#😗 #where are the rhaenyra fans who dont fawn over daemons ugly mug #hotd #alicent hightower #rhaenicent #rhaenyra targaryen #lets form a hotd lesbian coalition #tho... i think most of the lesbians are primarily alicent fans ngl #am i making sense at all? #alicent superiority personally. but you get it

[grendelsmom]

The discourse about whether Alicent or Rhaenyra is the better mother is so booooring. You guys are being so booooring. Neither of them effectively help prepare their children for the situation and life they're about to inhabit. But you're so up in the team green/team black discourse, that you forget that "is character xy a good mother?" is an incredible uninteresting question to ask

People who say ending the show with Jaehaera being queen is the perfect ending to House of the Dragon make me laugh. They say that ending the show with two traumatised white children is enough and while that is a nice sentiment in theory. 

The reality of the matter is that House of the Dragon is a violently antiblack show. Misogynoir is baked into every step of that production, from the hair to the storylines to the fact that the Black women on the show rarely speak and lest we forget, they burnt a Black woman alive. 

Erasing Daenaera to give us the traumatised little white children ending is a copout. Daenaera is also a traumatised child who lost everything as a result of the war that the Greens started. You could have the same ending with her as well, but people don't push for that and I wonder why.

#idgaf about Jaehaera #and ending the show with her on the throne #will not affect the superior canon #but I do think it's funny just who is allowed to be a traumatised child and who isn't. #it's amusing #note i am not actually wondering #i already know why #house of the dragon #daenaera velaryon #jaehaera targaryen #aegon iii targaryen

[x-aefx]

Unpopular opinion: Sansa wasn't jealous of Daenerys or thought she was prettier she was just aware of what happened the last time a Targaryen sat the Iron Throne (especially with dragons) and she worried about the North. Sansa wanted an independent North but knew Daenerys would never agree to that-hence the not so welcoming attitude towards her (not to mention all her and Jon went through to get the north back)

It's genuinely disturbing that people feel comfortable calling others "nazis" because they like characters in a way they don't find personally acceptable. Especially when they think that people calling them out are wrong because a post being "tagged properly" is apparently a free pass to say whatever (their post not even being tagged correctly is a perfect summation of their idiocy). The level of brain rot is unbelievable. People are acting like this over fictional characters because they're that desperate to "win" arguments in fandom. It is truly the mark of people who aren't intelligent enough to make an actual point. I suppose that's how they landed on the logic that blocking everyone who disagrees with them and preserving their echo chamber makes them correct.

#this is why we have to normalize calling people stupid cause they think hitting send on a post means they've made an actual point #they really think they're George's personal appointed keepers of the canon and they get to decide what the story is for themselves lol #what a bunch of fucking lewsers and then they're too cowardly to actually face being called out so they block anyone who disagrees #but if I said wanting the Starks to reclaim winterfell/the North was white supremacy cause they stole the land from the cotf I'd be wrong #/tagged properly/ and they know they'd throw a fit if someone disliked their fave and put it in the anti tag lol they're so hypocritical #you ask for proof of this behavior that is supposedly so prevalent they feel justified on calling targ stans nazis and then it's crickets #the way people trivialize white supremacist behavior is so annoying because it's so often not taken seriously #like if you really think someone's behavior is leaning towards that why is reaction to have a superiority complex around it?? #fandom nonsense #anti targaryen antis #there my post is tagged properly so they can't bitch about it if they see it #=
