#i especially hate how the aphrodite cabin was treated as the poster child for ‘real women don’t wear dresses’#rick has clearly never heard of aphrodite areia and legally blonde and it shows hardcore#also hazel silena and drew deserved better#hazel deserved to be written as a child#silena deserved to survive and not be written off as a ‘traitor’ and have her trauma acknowledged#and drew deserved to have more personality and development than just being the generic asian airhead mean girl who only exists to make pipe#look better for being girly#plus it’s beyond fucked up that piper’s aversion to femininity was due to white racist girls bullying her AND YET they had the nerve to mak#her adversary a feminine girl of color#that just shows how rick was using the characters to shit on femininity and completely ignored the nuance in his own writing#and furthermore the fact that he wrote that entire ass epistle explaining why reyna can’t be a lesbian because she was rejected by men#ignoring the fact that many lesbians suffer from comphet and also that bi women exist#he only made her ace as a copout to shun the girls who saw her as a lesbian#and he also excused his harmful writing of piper and samirah#it’s just disgusting how he excluded feminine women women of color and/or queer women from being properly represented in his story and chos#to abide by ‘stereotypes’ but the second he was asked to make a lesbian or bi girl character suddenly then he cares about stereotypes as an#excuse to exclude lesbians and give aces shallow representation at our expense#and so true about percy being given ooc dude moments(like the time he attacked the hunters bc he didn’t want Annabeth joining them)#pjo would have been better as a female-centric franchise and if percy had been written as a trans girl but alas we got this#i hope everyone who praises rick for giving us ‘such good representation’ in the form of brownie points reads this and chokes#not enough people talk about the misogyny in pjo but it needs to be acknowledged#so thank you and goodnight#percy jackson#does it like women
