It feels like LOGH is rubbing my nose in the fact that it won’t let Frederica do anything
#it’s so frustrating lol#the author gave Yang an adoring fangirl-secretary-wife to marvel at his intelligence while getting to do nothing on her own#I’d be fine if Yang married a completely uninvolved civilian!#but the show keeps Frederica around seemingly for the sole purpose of having her be a pretty face or something#it’s not THAT bad but the contrast between her and Julian is insane#she’s like 7 years older than him#they’re the two who were closest to Yang#they’re both supposedly the new leaders of the democratic republican movement#but she’s done like 1 thing the whole show while Julian is practically a main character#I keep dreaming of a version of the story where Jessica was Yang’s long term love interest#wouldn’t it be great if there was a civilian character on the alliance side who actually operated in the democratic system?#and then it would be like husband and wife are fighting the same war in different arenas#but no#and now Frederica gets to have a lifeless political career as a figurehead w no ideas of her own#just like how her military career was just being an assistant#LAME AND BORING AND BAD#I’m not saying she’s completely mishandled but I’m not happy w it at all#I don’t even care if a story has ‘strong female characters’ or whatever#but if you’re going to include women don’t insult them at every turn#there was literally a part where one of the alliance guys said she’s not that smart or accomplished#omg. I have complaints about th gender politics of the show but this is hands down the worst aspect
