Aah hi hi I just saw you are also a big xmen fan that makes me soo happy that you like doctor who AND xmen cause those are my two favourite things and it’s hard to find agere stuff for them but your account is so amazing!!!!! Ty for all your posts :) if you want to could you please make a moodboard for cg charles with a theme of being cozy at the academy? :D and then also if you want to one for cg logan with outdoorsy theme would be cute aswell!! They would both be so good carers <3 i love all the xmen so much!!!!!! I also imagine that Rogue would be a regressor and we could have playdates!!! Anyway I hope you have a good day thank you for all your posts!!
AAaaaaa this is so sweet thank you! 🥺💞 I'm slooowly getting through all the X-Men movies, I think the next on my list is Logan, but I've been avoiding it cuz I know what happens.. 😅 Then gonna watch the cartoons after. I love them all so much too, they're such good, interesting characters! I feel you about there not being much content for either of them. And honestly, I was a little surprised (and saddened) to find less agere X-Men stuff than Doctor Who!
Thank you sm for giving me something to do during a 5 hour car ride! Had a lot of fun with these. 🥰 I hope you like them, and have a great day/night! /gen

[Agere]
So, you know that part in X2 (if I remember correctly) where Charles tells Logan that he could keep him under the impression that he was a six year old girl?
What if Logan already regressed, a mix of PTSD symptoms and fear taking over him while he was alone?
What if he goes to Charles because he needs to regress, but can't? He lets Charles worm his way into his mind, pick and choose the things that would help. And he gets to sleep safely in the professors bed while he was read to.
Charles, although he may not fully understand, he keeps the link open. Keeping Logan small, warding off nightmares while Logan rested his head in his lap. Others may worry about the two of them disappearing, but right now, Charles is putting his heart and soul into making everything okay for Logan, this time.

Watching a lot of X-Men Evolution and I'm obsessed with them
All the kiddos regressing together and helping each other if someone regresses at school or on a mission
Jean and Scott being big sibs, and trying to be big sibs when they're feeling little, and having everyone assure them that they can be the little siblings
Wolverine regressing and the younger team members being big siblings, cause baby Wolvie is everything to me
Charles, Hank and Ororo essentially running the most chaotic daycare of baby mutants after a hard mission, sometimes Wolverine won't be regressed and he can help, but usually he's regressed too
The Brotherhood being invited over for play dates (bc they are also just kids and I want them to be friends with the x-men)

Tumblr media
a babyish whine leaves your throat as you stare at your laptop, sitting at the round table in your dorm. you weren't expecting to see a "c+" on your latest essay. it's not bad, but it's not good either. most of your stupid professors don't round up when grading, leaving you with a bland 79.63%. you huff out a gust of air, staring at the screen blankly as you frustratedly tug at the skin on your lip.
just then you hear a rhythmic knock on your door to the melody of "wannabe" by the spice girls, a giddy smile quickly replacing your sulky pout. you climb out your chair, hurrying over to the door that swings open to reveal kaminari with his hands full with bags. "hayy!" he greets you with a dorky grin. "what'd you get on your paper?"
you sigh, "don' wanna talk about it,"
he hums with a tiny pout before lifting one of the bags and pulling out a tiny ziploc filled with weed, bringing it up in front of his face. "wellll look what i gottt!" he sings cheerfully. you giggle, gesturing your head for him to come inside.
denki wasn't your boyfriend by any means. he wasn't just a friend either. you two were more like best friends with.. certain benefits.
he gives you a quick peck on the cheek as he steps in. you watch as he brings the bags onto your countertop, his black jeans sagging boyishly. you hum perkishly, swinging around to the other side of the counter. he pulls out junk food and typical sleepover necessities. "dickhead aizawa gave me a D.." kami whines, throwing the plastic bags with a huff. you pout somewhat mockingly, grabbing his hand and leading him to the couch.
"he's not a dickhead, you love him, remember?" you tease, grabbing the baggy from your friend. he sighs dramatically, throwing his head back as he pulls out a joint from his back pocket, dropping it into your hand. you can already see signs of kami feeling a little younger today. the junk food, name calling, and how he's clinging to your arm like a baby.
when you finish rolling the joint, you turn to a patiently waiting denki. you stare at him blankly, batting your eyelashes unintentionally. he tilts his head to the side with an adorable look of confusion. you take the first puff of weed, exhaling with satisfaction. you moan with relief, passing the stick to the grungy boy with a gentle "here, baby". he happily accepts, taking his hit with ease.
you play with his pretty mustard-yellow hair slowly, tenderly pushing him into a relaxed headspace. denki practically purrs at the smoke making its way to his lungs, his head going fuzzy. after a few puffs, he's babbling about a new show he's watching and why it's so good. he takes his time explaining why each of the characters are perfect yet so different.
a few minutes pass, and he's stoned. most of your friends who've never smoked with kaminari assume that he's even louder and hyper than usual, but it's the opposite (at first). he's gentler and soft, snuggling into your side as drool spills past his lip. the tv is playing the show he was talking about on low volume, the joint dumped into an ashtray.
"m hungry mama," he whispers. every time your best friend gets into a small zone, he's cautious, always worried that for some reason you may think he's weird, although you've been with him as he's little more times than you can count. your hand petting his hair goes idle as you lean down to meet his red eyes. you coo, poking his squishy cheek. "i'll grab the snacksss..!" you grin, poking him again before standing up, your large girly blanket wrapped around you.
"um.. bring juice please!" he calls out to you, stretching his legs out on the couch.
you reuturn seconds later with a cup of juice and the junk food he'd brought. careful not to spill any juice, (no one likes a cranky baby), you plop down on the couch, pull the snacks from their bags, and hand kami the juice. he thanks you quietly, both hands wrapping around his pikachu cup as he takes a sip.
you grab the remote, getting comfy on the sofa again before exiting the show that was playing to scroll through your streaming services. "whaddya wanna watch?" you smile lovingly, affectionately sliding his black sweater off his shoulders to provide less stimulation. he hums thankfully with a shrug before suddenly perking up out of the blue.
without any previous signs, he unintentionally slams his cup on the table before jumping up on the couch, both hands fisted into balls and cheering, "les watch bolt!!"
stifling a sleepy yawn, you use your sleeve to dab at drops of spilled juice, the effects of the weed and your exhausting day weighing heavily on you.
"put bolt on mommy!!!" denki whines impatiently, dropping himself next to you.
you giggle, pressing the buttons on the remote as quickly as you can. "i am, i am!"
the next hour and a half is spent watching denki's beloved childhood movie with loud shushes whenever you make a sound and even louder reactions from him whenever something big happens on screen. you can't help but wonder how the weed hadn't toned down his bubbly energy, though you don't mind at all. by the time the movie's done, you two had drifted asleep, clinging to each other tightly as scattered chips litter your bodies... you have a bit of cleanup to do tomorrow.

X-Men 7 (Sept 1964)
Stan Lee/Jack Kirby.
HELL YEAH
Tumblr media
"The most unusual teen-agers of all time" didn't really hold up as a tagline, but anyway. We're in issue 7 and the X-Men have, canonically, I think, seven villains - Magneto, the four members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants who work for him, the Blob and the Vanisher. Six of them are coming back for this issue and they're being celebrated like we haven't seen them in years. This is funny but it's especially funny how much of a dunk on the Vanisher this is.
Anyway, the X-Men "graduate" in this issue, which doesn't involve them leaving school, nor does it involve the Professor stopping constantly testing them or anything, but Professor X leaves for a while and Cyclops officially becomes team leader and gets introduced to Cerebro, which looks amazing.
Tumblr media
The Vanisher isn't even on Cerebro's list of KNOWN HOSTILE MUTANTS! Owned!
Tumblr media
The gang goes to Greenwich Village for some downtime and we get Stan Lee's spoof version of beatniks. This is 1964 so this stuff is already kind of out of date (this is very much a bunch of late 50s gags) but I can't tell if that was part of the joke, or whether Stan Lee just didn't keep up with this stuff, or whether he assumed his imagined audience wouldn't be keeping up with this stuff. Or whether he just liked laughing at beatniks. Anyway, I dig it.
Tumblr media
It gets weirder. I haven't even really talked about the stuff with Beast's giant feet but...there's a lot of foot stuff in these comics.
Tumblr media
Oh right, the plot. Magneto tries to recruit the Blob, which almost works, until the X-Men show up to interrupt him at a missile base (as usual). The Blob inadvertently shields the X-Men from the blast of a missile, then concludes that he hates both sides and goes home, with a bit of humanisation. We stan the Blob. The end.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1978/05/09/the-father-of-kwanzaa/ec0fe360-c895-47d3-a5b6-0a1a09a471b1/
The Father of Kwanzaa
By Hollie I. WestMay 9, 1978
"I created Kwanzaa," laughed M. Ron Karenga like a teen-ager who's just divulged a deeply held, precisions secret.
"People think it's African. But it's not. I wanted to give black people a holiday of their own. So I came up with Kwanzaa. I said it was African because you know black people in this country wouldn't celebrate it if they knew it was American. Also, I put it around Christmas because I knew that's when a lot of bloods (blacks) would be partying!"
The overwhelmingly black audience at Howard University's recent National Conference of Afro-American writers broke into laughter. The joke was on them - and millions of other black Americans who taught Kwanzaa, the seven-day festival of harvest, was African.
Since he created the holiday in 1966, numerous Afro-Americans have come to celebrate the occasion between Dec. 22 and Jan. 1 as an alternative to Christmas.
Nevertheless, the ploy was not malicious. Karenga, political activist in the late '60s, currently a college professor and frequent lecturer asked: "Can you imagine 30 to 40 million people not having one national, non-heroic holiday? We couldn't wait around for someone to do this for us."
In the late '60s and early '70s, he had a profound effect on the thinking of Amiri Baraka (formerly LeRoi Jones) and other Afro-american cultural figures who spread his philosophy.
From his base in Los Angeles, Karenga came to national prominence following the Watts civil disturbance. He was seen frequently on television and made numerous speeches. A civil rights observer called him "one of the leading theoreticians in the national black power movement."
His role was described as a study in contrasts. He urged militant self-defense by blacks, but he also conferred with white politicians on civil rights issues. His bald head and Genghis Khan-styled beard and moustache gave him a fearsome look, but in face-to-face meetings he was calm and soft-spoken.
Using the tough rhetorical style of the '60s, he wrote in "The Quotable Karenga," a thin handbook given to his followers: "When it's burn, let's see how much you burn. When it's kill,' let's see how much you kill. When it's blow up," let's see how much you blow up."
But times have changed. Between 1971 and 1975 he dropped out of sight while serving a prison term for ordering the beating of a woman. He is appealing. Now he was resurfaced and said he is rebuilding his movement.
Although the popularity of Kwanzaa mushroomed dramatically, Karenga also established Kuzaliwa, a tribute honoring Malcolm X's birthday on May 19, and Uhuru Day, a commemoration on Aug. 11 of the 1965 Watts civil disturbance.
The 1960s were a time of fervent cultural activity among blacks. Theater groups and writers workshops sprang up in most large cities. And Karenga took advantage of this.
He spoke to large and small, middle-class and working-class black organizations from CORE to Baptist church groups, carrying the message of Kwanzaa. At the same time, Baraka spoke for the Karenga philosophy to thousands of people at Congress of African Peoples meetings. He also wrote tracts that were published by black publishing houses.
The Kwanzaa idea began to pop up in black mass publications such as Ebony and Jet. From there it was picked up by white publications - daily newspapers and magazines - and radio and television.
Who is this short, squat man with the high-pitched voice and the flery rhetoric, and what is the current measure of his influence?
A. B. Spellman, writer and National Endowment for the Arts official, said: "There was no theory of nationalism in the '60s. What Karenga did was to rationalize the nationalist impulse and try to codify it."
Larry Neal, writer and executive director of the D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities, said: "Vocabulary and Kwanzaa are the major influences he's had. People started studying Swahili. Kwanzaa was like Topsy. It just grew.
"People wanted form, structure. He spoke to a need."
But Baraka, a former black nationalist who's become a Marxist, is not so charitable in his current assessment of the man whose ideas he once proselytized.
Said Baraka: "There was a vacuum created after Malcolm X died . . . Karenga was very well organized. He moved into the vacuum.
"He did a positive thing as far as Kwanzaa was concerned. But in a way it was another form of bourgeois nationalism. And he taught male chauvinsim."
"People have slandered me," complained Karenga. "I's slow building an organization in this atmosphere. There's a lull in the (black liberation) movement and I've got to dismantlef the bogus image that has gone up around me."
In his rapid-fire black preacher's oratory style, marked by staccato rhythms and syncopated long and short phrases, Karenga said, "What I said in the '60s I stand by. I'm still black. I still put black first. I'm still for the cultural revolution. Until somebody develops an alternative, more comprehensive view of reality, I've got to ride with mine."
Karenga was not always so outspokenly black. In the early '60s, he was Ronald Everett, the 14th child in the family of a farmer and part-time Baptist minister in Parsonburg, Md., on the Eastern Shore.
After receiving his master's degree in political science, he dropped his "slave name" and took on Karenga. In 1965 he organized US (as opposed to "them"), and gave himself the title Maulana (Master teacher). In 1976, he received a doctorate in urban development.
He would not say how large his following was before his 1971 imprisonment or how many followers he has currently.
"Our movement has been discredited," he said, "and I'm trying to rebuild it. The day I got out of captivity I went to a meeting."
His goal is to construct a national cultural network among Afro-Americans.
"We don't have a national culture," he explained. "We have a popular culture. We confuse influence with power. Influence is the ability to effect. Power is the ability to change."

The Rise & Fall of Joss Whedon; the Myth of the Hollywood Feminist Hero
By Kelly Faircloth
Tumblr media
“I hate ‘feminist.’ Is this a good time to bring that up?” Joss Whedon asked. He paused knowingly, waiting for the laughs he knew would come at the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer making such a statement.
It was 2013, and Whedon was onstage at a fundraiser for Equality Now, a human rights organization dedicated to legal equality for women. Though Buffy had been off the air for more than a decade, its legacy still loomed large; Whedon was widely respected as a man with a predilection for making science fiction with strong women for protagonists. Whedon went on to outline why, precisely, he hated the term: “You can’t be born an ‘ist,’” he argued, therefore, “‘feminist’ includes the idea that believing men and women to be equal, believing all people to be people, is not a natural state, that we don’t emerge assuming that everybody in the human race is a human, that the idea of equality is just an idea that’s imposed on us.”
The speech was widely praised and helped cement his pop-cultural reputation as a feminist, in an era that was very keen on celebrity feminists. But it was also, in retrospect, perhaps the high water mark for Whedon’s ability to claim the title, and now, almost a decade later, that reputation is finally in tatters, prompting a reevaluation of not just Whedon’s work, but the narrative he sold about himself. 
Tumblr media
In July 2020, actor Ray Fisher accused Whedon of being “gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable” on the Justice League set when Whedon took over for Zach Synder as director to finish the project. Charisma Carpenter then described her own experiences with Whedon in a long post to Twitter, hashtagged #IStandWithRayFisher.
On Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, Carpenter played Cordelia, a popular character who morphed from snob to hero—one of those strong female characters that made Whedon’s feminist reputation—before being unceremoniously written off the show in a plot that saw her thrust into a coma after getting pregnant with a demon. For years, fans have suspected that her disappearance was related to her real-life pregnancy. In her statement, Carpenter appeared to confirm the rumors. “Joss Whedon abused his power on numerous occasions while working on the sets of ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ and ‘Angel,’” she wrote, describing Fisher’s firing as the last straw that inspired her to go public.
Buffy was a landmark of late 1990s popular culture, beloved by many a burgeoning feminist, grad student, gender studies professor, and television critic for the heroine at the heart of the show, the beautiful blonde girl who balanced monster-killing with high school homework alongside ancillary characters like the shy, geeky Willow. Buffy was very nearly one of a kind, an icon of her era who spawned a generation of leather-pants-wearing urban fantasy badasses and women action heroes.
Tumblr media
Buffy was so beloved, in fact, that she earned Whedon a similarly privileged place in fans’ hearts and a broader reputation as a man who championed empowered women characters. In the desert of late ’90s and early 2000s popular culture, Whedon was heralded as that rarest of birds—the feminist Hollywood man. For many, he was an example of what more equitable storytelling might look like, a model for how to create compelling women protagonists who were also very, very fun to watch. But Carpenter’s accusations appear to have finally imploded that particular bit of branding, revealing a different reality behind the scenes and prompting a reevaluation of the entire arc of Whedon’s career: who he was and what he was selling all along.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer premiered March 1997, midseason, on The WB, a two-year-old network targeting teens with shows like 7th Heaven. Its beginnings were not necessarily auspicious; it was a reboot of a not-particularly-blockbuster 1992 movie written by third-generation screenwriter Joss Whedon. (His grandfather wrote for The Donna Reed Show; his father wrote for Golden Girls.) The show followed the trials of a stereotypical teenage California girl who moved to a new town and a new school after her parents’ divorce—only, in a deliberate inversion of horror tropes, the entire town sat on top of the entrance to Hell and hence was overrun with demons. Buffy was a slayer, a young woman with the power and immense responsibility to fight them. After the movie turned out very differently than Whedon had originally envisioned, the show was a chance for a do-over, more of a Valley girl comedy than serious horror.
Tumblr media
It was layered, it was campy, it was ironic and self-aware. It looked like it belonged on the WB rather than one of the bigger broadcast networks, unlike the slickly produced prestige TV that would follow a few years later. Buffy didn’t fixate on the gory glory of killing vampires—really, the monsters were metaphors for the entire experience of adolescence, in all its complicated misery. Almost immediately, a broad cross-section of viewers responded enthusiastically. Critics loved it, and it would be hugely influential on Whedon’s colleagues in television; many argue that it broke ground in terms of what you could do with a television show in terms of serialized storytelling, setting the stage for the modern TV era. Academics took it up, with the show attracting a tremendous amount of attention and discussion.
In 2002, the New York Times covered the first academic conference dedicated to the show. The organizer called Buffy “a tremendously rich text,” hence the flood of papers with titles like “Pain as Bright as Steel: The Monomyth and Light in ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer,’” which only gathered speed as the years passed. And while it was never the highest-rated show on television, it attracted an ardent core of fans.
But what stood out the most was the show’s protagonist: a young woman who stereotypically would have been a monster movie victim, with the script flipped: instead of screaming and swooning, she staked the vampires. This was deliberate, the core conceit of the concept, as Whedon said in many, many interviews. The helpless horror movie girl killed in the dark alley instead walks out victorious. He told Time in 1997 that the concept was born from the thought, “I would love to see a movie in which a blond wanders into a dark alley, takes care of herself and deploys her powers.” In Whedon’s framing, it was particularly important that it was a woman who walked out of that alley. He told another publication in 2002 that “the very first mission statement of the show” was “the joy of female power: having it, using it, sharing it.”
Tumblr media
In 2021, when seemingly every new streaming property with a woman as its central character makes some half-baked claim to feminism, it’s easy to forget just how much Buffy stood out among its against its contemporaries. Action movies—with exceptions like Alien’s Ripley and Terminator 2's Sarah Conner—were ruled by hulking tough guys with macho swagger. When women appeared on screen opposite vampires, their primary job was to expose long, lovely, vulnerable necks. Stories and characters that bucked these larger currents inspired intense devotion, from Angela Chase of My So-Called Life to Dana Scully of The X-Files.
The broader landscape, too, was dismal. It was the conflicted era of girl power, a concept that sprang up in the wake of the successes of the second-wave feminist movement and the backlash that followed. Young women were constantly exposed to you-can-do-it messaging that juxtaposed uneasily with the reality of the world around them. This was the era of shitty, sexist jokes about every woman who came into Bill Clinton’s orbit and the leering response to the arrival of Britney Spears; Rush Limbaugh was a fairly mainstream figure.
Tumblr media
At one point, Buffy competed against Ally McBeal, a show that dedicated an entire episode to a dancing computer-generated baby following around its lawyer main character, her biological clock made zanily literal. Consider this line from a New York Times review of the Buffy’s 1997 premiere: “Given to hot pants and boots that should guarantee the close attention of Humbert Humberts all over America, Buffy is just your average teen-ager, poutily obsessed with clothes and boys.”
Against that background, Buffy was a landmark. Besides the simple fact of its woman protagonist, there were unique plots, like the coming-out story for her friend Willow. An ambivalent 1999 piece in Bitch magazine, even as it explored the show’s tank-top heavy marketing, ultimately concluded, “In the end, it’s precisely this contextual conflict that sets Buffy apart from the rest and makes her an appealing icon. Frustrating as her contradictions may be, annoying as her babe quotient may be, Buffy still offers up a prime-time heroine like no other.”
A 2016 Atlantic piece, adapted from a book excerpt, makes the case that Buffy is perhaps best understood as an icon of third-wave feminism: “In its examination of individual and collective empowerment, its ambiguous politics of racial representation and its willing embrace of contradiction, Buffy is a quintessentially third-wave cultural production.” The show was vested with all the era’s longing for something better than what was available, something different, a champion for a conflicted “post-feminist” era—even if she was an imperfect or somewhat incongruous vessel. It wasn’t just Sunnydale that needed a chosen Slayer, it was an entire generation of women. That fact became intricately intertwined with Whedon himself.
Seemingly every interview involved a discussion of his fondness for stories about strong women. “I’ve always found strong women interesting, because they are not overly represented in the cinema,” he told New York for a 1997 piece that notes he studied both film and “gender and feminist issues” at Wesleyan; “I seem to be the guy for strong action women,’’ he told the New York Times in 1997 with an aw-shucks sort of shrug. ‘’A lot of writers are just terrible when it comes to writing female characters. They forget that they are people.’’ He often cited the influence of his strong, “hardcore feminist” mother, and even suggested that his protagonists served feminist ends in and of themselves: “If I can make teenage boys comfortable with a girl who takes charge of a situation without their knowing that’s what’s happening, it’s better than sitting down and selling them on feminism,” he told Time in 1997.
When he was honored by the organization Equality Now in 2006 for his “outstanding contribution to equality in film and television,” Whedon made his speech an extended riff on the fact that people just kept asking him about it, concluding with the ultimate answer: “Because you’re still asking me that question.” He presented strong women as a simple no-brainer, and he was seemingly always happy to say so, at a time when the entertainment business still seemed ruled by unapologetic misogynists. The internet of the mid-2010s only intensified Whedon’s anointment as a prototypical Hollywood ally, with reporters asking him things like how men could best support the feminist movement. 
Whedon’s response: “A guy who goes around saying ‘I’m a feminist’ usually has an agenda that is not feminist. A guy who behaves like one, who actually becomes involved in the movement, generally speaking, you can trust that. And it doesn’t just apply to the action that is activist. It applies to the way they treat the women they work with and they live with and they see on the street.” This remark takes on a great deal of irony in light of Carpenter’s statement.
Tumblr media
In recent years, Whedon’s reputation as an ally began to wane. Partly, it was because of the work itself, which revealed more and more cracks as Buffy receded in the rearview mirror. Maybe it all started to sour with Dollhouse, a TV show that imagined Eliza Dushku as a young woman rented out to the rich and powerful, her mind wiped after every assignment, a concept that sat poorly with fans. (Though Whedon, while he was publicly unhappy with how the show had turned out after much push-and-pull with the corporate bosses at Fox, still argued the conceit was “the most pure feminist and empowering statement I’d ever made—somebody building themselves from nothing,” in a 2012 interview with Wired.)
After years of loud disappointment with the TV bosses at Fox on Firefly and Dollhouse, Whedon moved into big-budget Hollywood blockbusters. He helped birth the Marvel-dominated era of movies with his work as director of The Avengers. But his second Avengers movie, Age of Ultron, was heavily criticized for a moment in which Black Widow laid out her personal reproductive history for the Hulk, suggesting her sterilization somehow made her a “monster.” In June 2017, his un-filmed script for a Wonder Woman adaptation leaked, to widespread mockery. The script’s introduction of Diana was almost leering: “To say she is beautiful is almost to miss the point. She is elemental, as natural and wild as the luminous flora surrounding. Her dark hair waterfalls to her shoulders in soft arcs and curls. Her body is curvaceous, but taut as a drawn bow.”
Tumblr media
But Whedon’s real fall from grace began in 2017, right before MeToo spurred a cultural reckoning. His ex-wife, Kai Cole, published a piece in The Wrap accusing him of cheating off and on throughout their relationship and calling him a hypocrite:
“Despite understanding, on some level, that what he was doing was wrong, he never conceded the hypocrisy of being out in the world preaching feminist ideals, while at the same time, taking away my right to make choices for my life and my body based on the truth. He deceived me for 15 years, so he could have everything he wanted. I believed, everyone believed, that he was one of the good guys, committed to fighting for women’s rights, committed to our marriage, and to the women he worked with. But I now see how he used his relationship with me as a shield, both during and after our marriage, so no one would question his relationships with other women or scrutinize his writing as anything other than feminist.”
But his reputation was just too strong; the accusation that he didn’t practice what he preached didn’t quite stick. A spokesperson for Whedon told the Wrap: “While this account includes inaccuracies and misrepresentations which can be harmful to their family, Joss is not commenting, out of concern for his children and out of respect for his ex-wife. Many minimized the essay on the basis that adultery doesn’t necessarily make you a bad feminist or erase a legacy. Whedon similarly seemed to shrug off Ray Fisher’s accusations of creating a toxic workplace; instead, Warner Media fired Fisher.
Tumblr media
But Carpenter’s statement—which struck right at the heart of his Buffy-based legacy for progressivism—may finally change things. Even at the time, the plotline in which Charisma Carpenter was written off Angel—carrying a demon child that turned her into “Evil Cordelia,” ending the season in a coma, and quite simply never reappearing—was unpopular. Asked about what had happened in a 2009 panel at DragonCon, she said that “my relationship with Joss became strained,” continuing: “We all go through our stuff in general [behind the scenes], and I was going through my stuff, and then I became pregnant. And I guess in his mind, he had a different way of seeing the season go… in the fourth season.”
“I think Joss was, honestly, mad. I think he was mad at me and I say that in a loving way, which is—it’s a very complicated dynamic working for somebody for so many years, and expectations, and also being on a show for eight years, you gotta live your life. And sometimes living your life gets in the way of maybe the creator’s vision for the future. And that becomes conflict, and that was my experience.”
In her statement on Twitter, Carpenter alleged that after Whedon was informed of her pregnancy, he called her into a closed-door meeting and “asked me if I was ‘going to keep it,’ and manipulatively weaponized my womanhood and faith against me.” She added that “he proceeded to attack my character, mock my religious beliefs, accuse me of sabotaging the show, and then unceremoniously fired me following the season once I gave birth.” Carpenter said that he called her fat while she was four months pregnant and scheduled her to work at 1 a.m. while six months pregnant after her doctor had recommended shortening her hours, a move she describes as retaliatory. What Carpenter describes, in other words, is an absolutely textbook case of pregnancy discrimination in the workplace, the type of bullshit the feminist movement exists to fight—at the hands of the man who was for years lauded as a Hollywood feminist for his work on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel.
Tumblr media
Many of Carpenter’s colleagues from Buffy and Angel spoke out in support, including Buffy herself, Sarah Michelle Gellar. “While I am proud to have my name associated with Buffy Summers, I don’t want to be forever associated with the name Joss Whedon,” she said in a statement. Just shy of a decade after that 2013 speech, many of the cast members on the show that put him on that stage are cutting ties.
Whedon garnered a reputation as pop culture’s ultimate feminist man because Buffy did stand out so much, an oasis in a wasteland. But in 2021, the idea of a lone man being responsible for creating women’s stories—one who told the New York Times, “I seem to be the guy for strong action women”—seems like a relic. It’s depressing to consider how many years Hollywood’s first instinct for “strong action women” wasn’t a woman, and to think about what other people could have done with those resources. When Wonder Woman finally reached the screen, to great acclaim, it was with a woman as director.
Besides, Whedon didn’t make Buffy all by himself—many, many women contributed, from the actresses to the writers to the stunt workers, and his reputation grew so large it eclipsed their part in the show’s creation. Even as he preached feminism, Whedon benefitted from one of the oldest, most sexist stereotypes: the man who’s a benevolent, creative genius. And Buffy, too, overshadowed all the other contributors who redefined who could be a hero on television and in speculative fiction, from individual actors like Gillian Anderson to the determined, creative women who wrote science fiction and fantasy over the last several decades to—perhaps most of all—the fans who craved different, better stories. Buffy helped change what you could put on TV, but it didn’t create the desire to see a character like her. It was that desire, as much as Whedon himself, that gave Buffy the Vampire Slayer her power.
