#it feels weird and inorganic. why does misogyny have to exist when i just want a lady warrior that swings sword and no one gives a shit.

listen. people can do whatever they want with their muse and their interpretation of canon. but god something rubs me wrong about people introducing misogyny/disparity in a setting where canon pretty firmly says ‘this is a non-issue due to the structure of this fantasy world/society in no way reflecting our own real world.’

and no i’m not talking about da trying to be egalitarian and falling short so fandom calls out the failure in worldbuilding, i mean canon definitively introducing women as warriors, leaders, rulers, villains, and monsters, all while no one in universe bats an eyelash or is weird about it.... but surely there must be an insidious undertow and women have to be told to stay in the kitchen or passed over for power or something else that clearly does not exist outside of fanon.
