#AHHHH I MISSED THIS TAGGGGGG

[moonlightdancer26]

thinking about how a lot of wolfstar fans reduce pairing to dom alfa remus/sub omega sirius and how actually homophobic it is

if you can't see two man in relationships without giving them traditional man/woman features there's something really wrong with you

and things got even worse when I tried to figure out what the reasons were behind making sirius a sub.. is that because of fucking long hair??? bye

A few days ago I saw a tiktok from one of my fave Marauder fan creators on tiktok talking about the same thing!! the creator talked about how Marauder stans make Remus an “alpha” male (as someone who took physics and is obsessed with it, I can never take the term “alpha” seriously 💀) and make him this strong big protector type while they turn Sirius into this short goofy guy who’s in need of tall handsome Remy’s protection (I just remembered the nickname “Remy” and I got war flashbacks), when canonically Remus’s height was never confirmed and he was an emotional coward who could never stand up to Sirius or James, while Sirius is canonically morally grey, tall, reckless, and isn’t afraid to speak up. Like why did Wolfstar shippers decide to completely switch their personalities? The blatant fetishisation of mlm ships that Marauder stans show is so absurd istg. 😭

^ It’s also one of the many reasons why I prefer Prongsfoot over Wolfstar, not only do Prongsfoot shippers have a way less toxic community than Wolfstar shippers, but James and Sirius canonically have a more equal dynamic than Sirius and Remus ever did and have the same humour/personality, but they also have upbringings that are different enough for there to be both angst and bonding in their relationship. and no fetishisation or completely-switching-canon-characterisations is necessary to do so :0
