It's okay OP you can say Alice Quinn
the way people treat girl characters in fandom joker-ifies me
#The Magicians#SERIOUSLY THERE IS SO MUCH ALICE HATE#FOR SUCH A BEAUTIFULLY PERFORMED AMAZINGLY LAYERED CHARACTER#and don't get me wrong Hale Appleman and Jason Ralph did great and the Queliot storyline/their performances#Are some of my favorites in the show#But GOD THE SHEER LEVEL OF HATE FOR ALICE QUINN#Olivia Taylor Dudley did NOT put her whole pussy into that character episode after episode for this level of disrespect#Best performance in the show imo#Hands down#The layers. Girls. The l a y e r s. The subtle facial acting. The constant holding back. Niffin Alice? Don't even get me started.#POST Niffin Alice? Holy shit! And she just gets more and more layered as the seasons pass and New Fuckening Happens#It's simply A Fact that if she were the exact same character but A Man these fans who proclaim their hatred would treat her differently#Margo is in a similar boat due to being (massive amount of quotes here) “bitchy” but I feel like shitty fans are more likely to just#Ignore her? Than march around with pitchforks and torches like they do Because Alice Did Something#The bitches MAKE WRONG DECISIONS AND FUCK UP AND ARE AEFUL SOMETIMES#THAT'S GOOD THATS HUMAN (and a little bit Niffin shh)#THAT'S NUANCED CHARACTER WRITING AND PERFORMANCE OH MY GGGGOOODDDDDD#I could yell about this for hours#To be honest#And you know? Alice isn't even my favorite character#I was Really not into her for the first two seasons or so of my first watchthrough#But like. I Understand. And when that moment of understanding came it was like. Shit. Wow. I haven't been giving this woman a fair shot.#She's multifaceted as hell and so is Margo and the way that they are respectively lambasted and treated as disposable by swathes of fans#Is really disappointing. Learn to love Messy Weird Women with a fraction of the fervor with which you worship Messy Weird Men.#Margo Hanson#Olivia Taylor Dudley#Summer Bishil#Alice Quinn#It's the internalized misogyny babes grow and learn
