♛ female villains ♛ + archetypes

The Bitch: the abusive autocrat, she lies, cheats, and steals her way to the top.  She doesn’t care about the peons around her; only the achievement of her dreams matters.   The Black Widow: the beguiling siren, she lures victims into her web.  An expert at seduction of every variety, she uses her charms to get her way.     The Backstabber:  the two-faced friend, she delights in duping the unsuspecting.  Her sympathetic smiles enable her to learn her victim’s secrets, which she uses against them.   The Lunatic:  the balanced madwoman, she draws others into her crazy environment.  The drum to which she marches misses many a beat, but to her, it is the rest of the world that is out of step.  The Parasite: she collaborates for her own comfort.  She goes along with any atrocity, so long as her own security is assured.  She sees herself as victim who had no choice and blames others for their crimes.   The Schemer: the lethal plotter, she devises the ruin of others.  Like a cat with a mouse, she plays with lives. Elaborate plans, intricate schemes, nothing pleases her more than to trap the unwary.   The Fanatic:  the uncompromising extremist, she does wrong in the name of good.  She justifies her actions her intent and merely shrugs her shoulders at collateral damage. Anyone not an ally is an enemy. The Matriarch: the motherly oppressor, she smothers her loved ones.  She knows what’s best and will do all in her power to control the lives of those who surround her.

Why do people make shit arguments against queer representation by saying things like, “The percentage of LGBTQ people in the population isn’t that high.” Well neither is the percentage of vampires, but we see plenty of them in our media don’t we?
