#this isnt anti anything i dont rhink?

2 throw my two cents into the whole "bimbo" converstion i think its very childish... like extremely commiting to anti intellectualism cause "men will think youre dumb anyway" but elle woodsing it around and "actually being smart the whole time" but doing it through your own community's terms. but the thing is all of the terminology they use intead of acedemic is stolen/butchered aave & ballroom slang(?) and the only "bimbo" ppl ive seen have been white & non black woc. so food 4 thought on that. but it also never challenges the patriarchy in its most basic sense. "what if im smart And hot?!?!?!?!" wouldve been groundbreaking in like, a 00s chickflick but this is real life 2020s & thats no longer in the cultural zeitgeist? id honestly respect this movement if it was in the whole 90s-00s era but in the age of commodifying yourself into a little consumable video full of algorithms and shein and buying your personality and aestehtics replacing subcultures and all these things it just seems like a "good socially aware" excuse to play dress up. like uts olay to dress pink and dye your hqir blonder and wear nails. thats cute! but i dont think you need an entire reclamation narrative around it either bc there isnt even a centralised idea around it to my knowledge. like with goths & punks & emos you can very easily tell what theyre about and what they stand for, but this whole bimbo shit is so contradicting. is it reclaiming being blonde and dumb? reclaiming feminity and being smart? just dressing nice????? and on a far more personal level everyone seems like they have a stick up their ass. goths and punks get characterised as mean and elitist but their values often correlate with community care and what havd you. the bimbo people are the hyper individual "i dont owe you anything" "gaslight gatekeep gagglejejsj" type.......... lik.e what is a community if youre not even ... a community? its like parading as a super oppressed group but like.. feminine women always get the foot up? like the entire narrative that hyper feminine women get shat on obvs has some merit to it but it acts as if masc women dont exist and arent demonised by men and women. the invisibility that comes along with being a masc woman is something i wont pretend to understand but u know....... i just rhink its stupid and comes from when people understand social politics and get their activism from condescending twitter threads & not from like... good sources that encourage their own opinions and observations and applications. god

I dont know if this is worth Mentioning but I love how different Pike and Murphy sealed with Grounder Trauma.

Like... Pike had a bad experience with grounders, and because of that he became defensive and wanted them all gone/dead/away because he didn't want to deal with that pain again. He didn't want to deal with that trauma, and he felt every single Grounder was the same.

While Murphy was tortured on multiple occasions by grounders, a huge trauma for a 17 year old, and even though he had that Trauma... He fell in love with a Grounder.

He opened his heart to her. He fell in love and was open to her.

He has a reason to be weary. He had a reason to be suspicious and be angry at grounders, but he didn't. He fell in love with one.

Was smiling in front of one and joking with one the DAY he met her.

It's just a weird contrast between Pike who had a bad experience so he took it out on all of them, and Murphy who had a bad experience but he still fell in love.
