like i think emma’s deal w misogyny and sexism as laid out in that nocenti story fits in so well with where she fits with regards to the mutant metaphor at that time also. yk.
#like this is the type of writing where the metaphor hits hardest for me#when it runs parallel along something else#while at the hellfire club emma completely fucks over and hurts other women for a chance at personal power (security personal identity#safety)#in much the same way she will with other mutants#and i do enjoy that she comes to discover that she actually needs to act for and protect other mutants#i kind of wish something similar happened w other women tho?#like. it does in places but that really varies#and its hard bc emma is mean and interpersonally cruel a lot of the time#but i do think you could still do it...or ig the fact that she does only inconsistently is also interesting??#maybe i simply have not read enough emma frost. maybe if i read more utopia and such that will come out more#w.me
