always discouraging to see that morally grey characters (or villains) are often judged by their morality when they're female, when male characters get judged by. well. how layered and interesting they are.

#im thinking about mythal and about how many posts ive seen expressing hatred for her like its so weird to me how we're able to engage with #these sorts of characters only as long as theyre male #like you see a fictional man be a piece of shit and u go hmm. interesting #but a fictional woman does the same and people start seething #like we suddenly forget none of these people are real #in this case its interesting to see how few people are actually willing to speculate on mythals motives beyond just saying oh shes #mean and abusive. which yes but. why tho. like can you imagine if we were this lazy when analyzing.. say anders for example #like its so boring. its such a shame #dragon age #mythal #veilguard spoilers #i guess?
