tagged by @piyo-13 to make a poll of my top 5 characters and see who comes out on top and well....
Honorable Mentions: Mishil from Queen Seondeok (the OG baddie bitch antiheroine!!! Watching this sageuk as a kid literally alternated my brain chemistry hahaha), Emily Throne from Revenge (another OG antiheroine girlie I was frothing at the mouth over!!!) and Jem Carstairs from The Infernal Devices (the stranglehold this boi had on me during the heyday of the YA paranormal romance era LMAOOO)
Tagging @gyuseulogy, @selkiestars, @skadren, @whenquietthunders, @yukipri, and anyone else who wants to do this!
#personal#bruh...this was so hard#i originally had a top 20#narrowed it down to 10#and each time i narrowed down#i felt like i was sending off my children off to the guillotine rofl#a friend once absolutely CLOCKED me#by saying 'ur fave taste in fictional men is the kind princely type with severe childhood trauma'#while ur taste in fictional women is OG baddie bitches that you want them to step on u#typically in the antiheroine vein#and i was like 'do not...do not perceive me in this fashion plz'#but clearly she was right#but also characters who continue to chose KINDNESS and EMPATHY in increasingly unkind worlds/circumstances#that shit is my personal catnip#literally frothing at the mouth over#all the men in this poll seem to be cut from the same cloth tbh#they are my traumatized pookie sons lmaooo#and i usually scream about them in the tags a la 'MY PRECIOUS SONNNN!!!'#tanjirou should be fairly obvious#as I glanced to my acrylic standee collection on my bookshelves#and I have 7-8 standees of him alone [but a few are group standees lol]

Challenge: make a poll with five of your all time favorite characters, and then tag five people to do the same. See which character is everyone's favorite.

so, i saw this post on instagram and my response is just the hardest disagree ever... you want characters who are morally black, or unhinged, or problematic, but you don’t want them to do, say, or think truly problematic, prejudiced things? listen, you cannot call for unlikeable characters in media who only do tasteful evils like murder but not uncomfortable evils like racism or hate speech. you cannot call for novels with characters who are acknowledged to be problematic and at the same time demand only a socially acceptable and clean form of problematic behavior. the reality of messy, problematic characters isn’t to have the reader root for or against these characters or even internalize their ideas. the point of these problematic characters is to reveal the harshness and complexity of the world, not to reinforce moral or political ideals. you cannot explore the truth of society and people in books if you will only accept characters who are sanitized of reality.

Like. Once again, I of ALL people understand what it's like to imprint on/relate to/be drawn to/care most about unpalatable or destructive or vicious characters who Aren't Good People, but, you know. I do have to ask why, for so many people, this NEVER seems to happen when those characters are women.
#like. why is it only the men like this you find interesting or emotionally resonant. why does your fondness for this concept go away#when the character who exemplifies these things is a woman#and I'm not talking about 'oh people hate one or two of my faves' IT HAPPENS /EVERY/ TIME!!!!#EVERY FEMALE CHARACTER LIKE THIS GETS SHAFTED#mel screams about fictional ladies again#that whole 'you all say you want morally grey women but you can't even handle [x]' thing is a meme for a reason!!!#because most of the time you take GENUINELY MORALLY GREY FEMALE CHARACTERS and talk about how they're one-dimensionally#SUPER COMPLETE EVIL#and then you ALSO lump female characters who mean well and ARE good people who mess up sometimes like a real human being#in with this group too. like it really is about idealizing some theoretical idea of what you think a female character '''should''' be and#then going 'mmmmm but not like that' EVERY time you get something that matches up with what you claim to be asking for#BECAUSE NOTHING IS EVER GOOD ENOUGH FOR THESE PEOPLE!!! THE WOMEN ARE NEVER GOOD ENOUGH TO MATTER IN THEIR OWN STORIES!!!!!!!#AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH#I know I talk about this every goddamn day but I am BEYOND apologizing#fandom misogyny

v interesting to behold one of those femcel fandom accounts on twitter when the only female characters they ever talk about are white women written by men
#do you think they know that women are allowed to make compelling characters too?#or do they just feel compelled to cape for the most annoying depictions of womanhood possible?#because as we know it's illegal for a fictional woman to be anything other than a perfect compassionate saint or a victim#to say otherwise would be sexist#afaik the only hobby these accounts have is claiming they're better than everyone else because they can like complex female characters#while simultaneously tearing apart anyone who implies their fave ever did anything that wasn't 100% morally correct

Funnily enough these same people suddenly have absolutely no trouble comprehending the idea that how you EXCLUSIVELY repeatedly write your only characters from a certain demographic can say something about how you view that demographic irl...when it comes to characters who are queer/trans/female/neurodivergent/disabled like them.
post: the way you write certain characters can reveal certain things about yourself and the way you view the world. for example, the way you treat your characters of color can correlate to how you view Black and brown people in real life.
addition: nope! stop fandom police! kill the cop inside your head! stop demonizing dark fiction! acab includes fandom police!
#just saying:) be consistent if you want me to believe you that this isn't s lot of self-serving rationalization.#new rule if you bitch out every single nonwhite person who points out this stuff in yours/your faves work#then you now have to shut up permanently about how the women/queer ppl in fiction are written.#and what makes this more annoying is that there really are ppl who think anything with more moral or story complexity#than your average children's cartoon is Literally Apologia for Fascism but tbh at this point for every one of those ppl#there's at least 5 others who criticized something or at least didn't wholeheartedly praise it#and get lumped into that first group and trashed.#you don't have to AGREE with someone's critique of an individual piece of media or of someone else's take#to acknowledge when they're actually making points or putting in legit effort. Can we even agree on that baseline? Apparently not#I'm not a pro or anti shipper you do all kind of fucking suck in different ways.#I identify as a person with a job and a life. People are dying. Go do the dishes#stop misconstruing what ppl say just because you don't want to actually engage with it and you'd rather pretend#they are Literally Doing A 1984 Censorship and Cancel Culturing you personally.#or idk go fight the ACTUAL book banning going on in real life and free speech violations#that happen in your country all the damn time. But we know you won't do that even if you could#you're too busy screaming at ppl online for daring to say anything negative about a thing you've based your entire personality on#no matter how fair nuanced or correct their criticisms might be

The primary reason why Masons admitted women into the Craft was to head off the accusation that men-only Lodges were homosexual debauches. The accusation was particularly insistent in France, where it was widely believed that homosexuality was the Craft's notorious secret, and that the rituals were a naked initiation into sodomy. The fact that, in Paris, members of the gay subculture used secret hand gestures and code-words to meet one another in safety from the authorities only increased the suspicion. Homosexuals even started adopting Craft terminology among themselves, calling one another 'Brother', for example.
- "The Craft: How the Freemasons Made the Modern World", by John Dickie, page 102

I queued a post agreeing with it but i didnt realize i did that exact thing OP was talking about until a few moments later
#Being a male feminist is hard whatever Loke said#I have to step back once in a while and remember not everyone is like. Treating fictional girls like i do.#What do you mean most people's blorbos / Comfort / Fave characters are Usually men??? What do you mean people critique yuri bait more than#yaoi bait??? People actually think women are below men??? Theres still not as many femslash ships as there are slash???#People dont *just* think about male protags in the context of him + A Girl??????#You actually think women shouldnt play the main characters??? You get mad at women who are even slightly bitchy????#Misogyny EXISTS?????? 😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨#nillas
