#it's going to be so bad

[set-wingedwarrior]

I don't think people really get just how massive Suletta's breakdown is going to be

I know it seems obvious after all that happened, but I'd like to give a little bit of more insight (let's thank my psychology major!)

We all know that Suletta has her whole self worth attached to Aerial, the way she's been educated and everything else, but the thing is, let's think about it as if Suletta had a healthy relationship with her Gundam (withouth considering it actually "family") and everyone around her for a moment.

Even in that brightest scenario, even if it wasn't about her worth, her whole sense of identity would still be tied to Aerial. She's a teenager, she's still forming a form of Self, her own identity, which in this time is developed through your peers and your interests basically.

Even if she was an accustomed healthy teenager, Suletta would still have broken down bad at the latest events, because she's losing a part of herself. She's a pilot, that's her Gundam! It's what she is! What is she withouth it? She's Earth's champion, now she's not anymore.

But that's not all. She's also Miorine's groom! That's part of her identity now, and it has been for a while. Always being by her bride's side, believing in her, supporting her, and loving her. Now she's not anymore, because they took away her title, but also because Miorine officially dumped her and called their relationship just a shield.

Suletta is the one who never lost a battle her whole life and now, at her very first loss, the lost everything.

All of that, on its own is already extremely damaging. All the confidence would break, their image of themselves would break, and a massive rebuild is to be done because who is she now?

All of that, in the best case scenario where Suletta has been raised properly, as a girl with maybe a talent and interest for mobile suits.

So, now let's ask ourselves: how bad can it be with canon Suletta? The one that has been raised to be a little soldier who doesn't think for herself. The one who has all of her self worth tied only to aerial, because it's not a matter of "it's a part of me", but a "I'm nothing withouth it".

How bad can it be for socially awkward Suletta, who's not good with social cues and stuff, who desperately tried to believe in her bride, and that at some point actually started doing it? That loved and believed that it was genuine because Miorine told her? The same Miorine that is now claiming that it's been all a lie and that is rejecting her so hard instead of simply blaming the results of the battle?

How bad can this all be for someone who has zero tools for interspection and dealing with herself and her own emotions, and that litterally has no other thing she identifies with aside from what they just took away from her?

one thing that took me embarrassingly long to learn is "sometimes when people say things, they will not be true."

I used to tell people about this revelation and they'd be like yeah.....duh.....but like, why wouldn't my base assumption be that you're communicating to me in a straightforward manner. anyway, I get scammed a lot.

I love preparing for the Snow Patrol gig in three weeks and fully knowing that I'll most likely end up crying my heart out during it.

the tradwife movement is the same as it has always been - back in the kitchen, back to breeding - it just has better branding.

when i was younger, i hated pink. i was not like other girls. this is now something i'm embarrassed of - this was not me being a "girl's girl."

but it was expressing something many of us felt at the time: i literally wasn't what girlhood was supposed to be. this is a hard thing to explain, but you know when you're not performing girlhood correctly. it isn't as easy as "i liked x when girls liked y" - because there were other girls that liked x, too - but i never figured out exactly the correct way to like x, or to be interested in y.

now there is the divine feminine. this is the same rhetoric it has always been: women are biologically driven to like pink and ribbons and submitting to our husbands.

the problem is that the patriarchy found a better PR team. because yes, actually, i want every woman to have the choice to be a homemaker. i also want her taken seriously for her legitimate home-making labor. i want her to be recognized as also having a job, just unpaid. i want men to have this opportunity, too.

but it is no longer "i made this choice and I love it." instead it is a sixteen-paragraph rant about how selfish it is that my generation isn't having kids. instead it's long videos about how if you feed your children processed foods, you're going to kill them. instead it is "this is what womanhood is supposed to be. i feel bad for any other choices you're making."

the shame spiral is just prettier. it is large houses devoid of personality. it is the implication: if you don't have this, you aren't happy. the solid, everlasting assurance: women are actually supposed to be submitting. this is the default. this is the natural state of things. all other attempts inflict suffering.

but you can no longer say i'm not like other girls. you can no longer reject this image completely. you cannot find it revolting, even if you know that the underbelly is toxic and festering. sure, it is the same repackaged patriarchy. but the internet does not have shades of grey. you should support and reward other women! your disgust is actually internalized misogyny. not because you are seeing a vision of yourself the way they're trying to train you to be. not because you feel her ghost pass within an inch of your earlobe. not because your father will eventually ask you - why can't you be like her?

because they figured out how to make it beautiful: women will sell other women on this idea, and we will find the singular loophole in feminism. sure, she's shaming you in most of her videos. sure, she implies that a different life is obscene. but she just wants you to be happy! you'd be happier if you were listening!

and the whole time you're sitting there thinking: i'd actually just be happier if i had that kind of money.
