I was hoping to see Colin sign Pen’s dance card this season, but I’ve come to accept that if there’s one thing Colin is going to do, it’s chaos.

Love seeing everyone’s varying depictions of the Magnus Protocol gang but my drawing skills are BUSTED so even though I can’t draw her atm just know that my headcanon of Alice is this specific photo of Susan Kare lmao

they will need to whipstitch the wound closed, but embroidery is a "woman's" task. they will need to eat and clean and mend clothes, but why learn basic things when you can have a woman measure out your life in beads. he will be the "head" of your house, but if you want him to act accordingly, you must assign him a list of all applicable activities. you will be otherwise constantly in charge of almost-everything; so he will lead the house he is absent from.

in movies and books, the "cool" girl will be more-like-a-man. she will be "less boring," more "fun". she will have masculine ideas and masculine talents, which means a man doesn't have to change in order to find her fascinating. she will disdain of something as simple as stitching. how boring!

she will kick open the door of a car and quip what, girls can't drive? and flip her long hair down one side. she will grill and shoot a gun and skydive. be a guy. she will be sexualized.

somewhere, working on computers becomes a masculine task, and now on tv a gen-z disney character throws her hands up in the air. i can't be a computer science nerd, i'm a girl! in the real life, she will be unable to sit through some of her classes, shivering when she realizes she is the only woman present in several of them.

how many times have you read this book and seen this show and watched this movie. the singular woman is allowed 5 lines because she's not just smart! she's also pretty! she is surrounded by 20 average men, but she is stunning. she is the exception to the bland, pale lives of women-at-home, who will never be shown. she likes dirt and motorbikes and blood and shows up in a tiny dress during the final scene, rolling her eyes at our male lead's incredulity - just because i like motorcross doesn't mean anything. i'm still a woman, okay? i actually like shopping.

it is almost never reversed, and you think about that often. it is vanishingly rare to have a single man in a cast of women. the male love interest does not show up at a feminist march and sardonically squint at our leading lady - what? you thought only women care about human rights? he does not know how to balance a checkbook or kickbox because i grew up with three sisters.

when he cooks he is a chef, which is sexy. when he cleans, he's being kind, genteel. when he nurtures his family, confetti rains from the ceiling. when she does these things: it is her duty and her identity. what do you mean she has other passions and hobbies? isn't her hobby and passion homemaking?

the other day a friend embroidered a seam closed on your jacket into the shape of ivy. every time you touch it, you think of her.

something about women's hobbies and art and skills. something about women's work.

I went back and read all of the letters you have sent me. Your letters have always been the ones I am most eager to read. Bridgerton 3.08 - “Into the Light”

Pen’s hands >> Colin’s neck

[polin-erospsyche]

Well now we know why he’s looking at them this way, the poor boy is so shaken to his core

He’s like what do you mean you attracted a suitor? What do you mean you’re talking about BOOKS? What do you mean my advice and lessons are not the reason you attracted a suitor in the first place? Well except for me, but I’m your friend, I do not count

Congratulations to Colin Bridgerton for being the first Bridgerton child to actually take his mom’s advice

He’s going to think she’s writing letters to Debling, isn’t he?

Just for the record, Colin was already having feelings for Penelope before they kissed. Jealous was playing in the background when she was having a successful conversation with a suitor. When he came back he was constantly looking around to show her his new personality. When they touched hands he got as flustered by it as she did. I am of the belief that he’s liked her all along he just hadn’t realized it because she’s been so constant in his life that he never thought twice about it, but if you’re looking for signs just within this season they were there way before the kiss. The kiss was just him getting smacked over the head with his feelings so that he couldn’t ignore them anymore
