Seeing the One Piece fanbase hyping up this 24-year-old white girl to play Robin because they're allergic to older and non-white women is so annoying to me (they're also allergic to fat women)*. The fact that she's super young when Robin is supposed to be visibly older and more mature than the East Blue Five, makes her an immediate NO for me. These weirdos will see a super young girl with black bangs and scream "Robin-chan~~!!!" because they can't consume media without their dicks in their hands. I mean, 19k likes? Seriously?
I��aki Godoy is 20. Mackenyu is 27. Taz Skylar and Jacob Gibson are 28. Emily Rudd is 31. The ideal thing would be for Robin to be 40 (or AT LEAST 32, and not look like she just graduated high school. She needs to look older than Emily Rudd and the rest of the cast).
I can only imagine the amount of racist vitriol Robin's actress will get if she ends up being a WOC. And let's not even start with the comments about the size of her breasts. Emily Rudd is the most conventionally attractive white girl you could think of, and I still see comments saying she wasn't "right" for Nami because her boobs aren't "big enough."
"But Oda said that if Robin were real, she'd be Russian!!11!" And he also said Luffy would be Brazilian (Iñaki is Mexican), Nami would be Swedish (Emily is American), Sanji would be French (Taz is Spanish/English), and with Usopp... all he did was write Africa, which isn't a country. So let's be serious for a bit. Those answers weren't literal.
Y'all love to talk about how the creepy things that he says on the SBS are "jokes" (remember when he sexually harassed a fan who asked him if she could be a Jump Editor, or when he said he fantasized about Rebecca's top falling during battle? Because I do), so why are these answers the one thing you choose to take seriously?
But this fandom being filled with racist, misogynistic, fatphobic incels isn't surprising considering how terrible Oda is. All these issues are connected and lead back to the source material. It's nearly impossible to have productive conversations about One Piece when everyone wants to blame all the bad on OPLA or Toei, as if the creator himself wasn't the one who opened the door for every single problem.
Some of you act as if someone kicked your dog whenever someone dares to suggest that Oda isn't the Super Progressive Writer™ the fandom has deluded themselves into thinking he is. I don't even understand where the denial comes from, considering his misogyny is so blatant and his association with sex offenders is public information. I understand loving One Piece, but you don't need to kiss Oda's ass, you know? He's not a good person.
Being critical of the media you consume and its creator isn't being a "hater". I can consume One Piece while disliking its many, many issues. I didn't sign a contract that says I have to like every single thing about it.
I'll be upset if Robin ends up being played by some 20-something white actress, but I'm already upset by the fandom's attitude. *Don't think I haven't noticed the obsession some folks have with monitoring Ilia Isorelýs Paulino's social media activity to check if she's losing weight to be "manga/anime accurate Alvida", as if Alvida magically becoming thin is this super important plot point that needs to be adapted. The source material and the fandom's treatment of fat women is another topic I could rant about for days.

i keep thinking about ocelot takarazuka i dont really see the influence like he just looks like a middle age guy with masc features manner and fashion so what do you think the artist actually meant? there's nothing feminine about ocelot like how does the "is that a man or woman" thing play in here cause i don't see it. He's not like raiden or raikov. He's just a guy 🧍‍♂️so how does the all female theatre thing apply
Hello Anon! Full, immediate disclosure, this answer is messy and disjointed. I probably don't even answer the question your asking end of the day, but I'll try my best.
I believe this is the post you're wondering about?
Tumblr media
As I said in this earlier post I'm not a Japanese speaker, so I have to go on interpretation, and what has been offered by the translations available. I can't help but think there is going to be some sort of nuance missing as a result, but I'll do my best.
To start, I think you and I might have a slightly different view on masculine and feminine-to me the two concepts are pretty interchangeable, but I do understand where you're (probably, I don't know you personally after all) are coming from and that, no, Ocelot doesn't have many traditional 'feminine' characteristics.
You'll note that in the original post, Shinkawa refers to getting inspiration from the idea of 'women in their 40's (the age Ocelot almost is in MGSV)' and 'long, flashing eyelashes'. (My interpretation here is that by this, he means in the way long eyelashes that are considered sexy have an eye-catching flow to them. Sort of like how we can say 'fluttering lashes'. Intended to draw a person's gaze in, and command their presence).
Tumblr media
Doing some cursory research tells me that the Takarazuka Revue (because Takarazuka is also a city in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.) is an all-female musical troupe located within that same city. Started in 1913, by Ichizō Kobayashi.
(I also got distracted by this version that is a performance of Casino Royale, so there's that)
Tumblr media
Anyway, ahem.
"Kobayashi believed that it was the ideal spot to open an attraction of some kind that would boost train ticket sales and draw more business to Takarazuka. Since Western song and dance shows were becoming more popular and Kobayashi considered the kabuki theater to be old and elitist."
Throughout the article, there is also this;
"Takarazuka has had a profound influence on the history of anime and manga, especially shōjo manga.[27][28] Osamu Tezuka, a highly influential manga creator, grew up in the town of Takarazuka. His mother knew many of the Takarazuka actresses, and as a child he knew them and watched many of their performances"
I can assume that the performances have a lot of influence on media, and it's not uncommon for MGS to take inspiration. There could be an entire article on the things MGS takes inspiration from, even outside the most obvious like Escape from New York, character model bases, etc.
Cycling back to the original point, (there is also a video that exact post comes from, but I don't have the link on hand, on YouTube *no translations). I think that it's entirely possible Shinkawa took 'loose' inspiration, or a little more. I can see why and how he might've based Ocelot's look on the idea. (Loose shirt, tight pants, scarf open neck). But there is also the element of which Takarazuka is a performance, more than anything.
It's acting. Playing. Something Ocelot does all the time. Half of his time on screen, he's putting on some kind of performance. While this is something he does the least in MGSV, that never fully changes 100%. (And after all, he's also hypnotized for most of the plot). So there's a counter argument to be had that this is one of his greatest performances pre-MGS4. But that's a different post.
Ocelot presents/is masculine. But, he has longer eyelashes, his clothes are a little more 'free' than the standard military garb when he's allowed to choose his own outfit. (Again this is specifically MGSV Ocelot, though there's something to be said about his chosen attire being such a sharp 3 piece later on).
At the end of the day, maybe a way you can look at it is to say that, Shinkawa looked to Takarazuka when designing MGSV Ocelot to give him a sort of 'flow' to his looks. He was attracted to the idea of taking elements from Takarazuka, because Ocelot is a performer, and he sees some possibility for feminine additions in his looks *or* might've thought it more 'fitting' than Kabuki.
But again, I don't know if we see fully masculine and feminine the same way, (and maybe Shinkawa personally associates long eyelashes with sexy women; or women made up to look like men but with longer lashes) I can't know for sure myself. I think you would need a native or very good Japanese speaker to interpret it fully.
If I was to offer you a personal opinion-I can see it. I can see where there's a draw that one might have with the look, and where Shinkawa might've gotten said inspiration. But I am not entirely certain how to put that into words either? My perspective isn't going to be 1-to-1 of yours either.
Maybe someone else can interpret all this better than me, I definitely feel as if I've not done this justice at all. Because at the end of the day, I don't see a hard divide in masculine and feminine in Ocelot, but I think that you, Anon, see him as 100% masculine. But again, I can't speak for you and I am not sure.

My comments on The Substance
- Okay, first of all , I've seen a lot of comments and some reactions and people are really forgetting that Elisabeth and Sue are the same, they are one. And their hatred and disregard for each other is the hate and disregard they had towards themselves.
-Ive saw Coralie Fargeat first movie (Revenge) so I knew what to expect here. But with The Substance it happened something that happens when movies like this go mainstream, people simply don't get it.
Like, people are saying the ending was trash and "too much", complaining about Monstro Elisasue and all the blood...in a BODY HORROR MOVIE.
It's like watch a romcom and complain about the aspects that makes a movie be considered as a romcom
-Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley are incredible in this. If the academy didn't discriminate horror movies, they (especially Demi) would get their Oscar nominations.
-In Brazilian Twitter, there's this whole discussion about Sue's body being unreal, which I think is really funny cuz it def isn't. But Coralie filmed Sue's body as if she was filming a commercial, Sue's body is seen as a product rather than a person. And that creates some unreal feeling, like, you're watching a robot or something since she is so dehumanized.
And it's brilliant since we all sadly know that's how society sees women. Especially the straight and bissexual ones, cuz they are mostly the ones that still seek male validation since they are attracted to them. And the patriarchy is the major reason behind things such as sexism
No wonder why this year had at least 4 big horror movies that talked about issues such as unwanted pregnancies, violence against women and sexism.
(I haven't watched Smile 2 yet so I dunno.)
-Ive seen on Twitter people saying that if Elisabeth had gone to a lesbian bar, she wouldn't have taken the substance and I agree 😭
The amount of lesbians who would just fall at her feet ready to give her the world if she ask...
-The Elisabeth and Sue relationship also parallels some narcissistic and toxic mother/daughter relationship. When the daughter (Sue) is forced to follow her mom(Elisabeth) dreams, and becomes so good at it that the mom actually gets mad and envy about it. While the daughter becomes arrogant and mean because she is better than her mom
The "You got it from me" part when Elisabeth was yelling at Sue on TV gave me that vibe.
-When they are coexisting I think that for a second Sue weren't herself when she was beating up Elisabeth but also it's like after seeing herself like that and realized that Elisabeth was gonna rob her of the biggest moment of her career...she snapped.
It's like when you are hating on you for sabotaging yourself. And as Sue cried after murdering Elisabeth, it's like that moment when you realize what you did to yourself. Also like you can use drugs, drunk, hurt yourself because you hate yourself but at the end of the day there's this moment when you realize what you did and just feel regretted.
-Also, it's sad how nobody's cared for Elisabeth. She had no support system, no real friends, nothing. And this happens to a lot of women, especially women in the business. Like we get 30y actress playing fucking grandma's but we don't have much 60y playing roles that aren't just grandmas. While men can play wherever they want and in their 40-50y take roles that should be for 20y
-Why did Sue look so damn hot while smashing Elisabeth's face in the mirror? I mean c'mon. For me it was the hotter she looked the whole movie (I would let her smash my head in the mirror too and apologize for the inconvenience)
-Ive seen one person commenting that they miss the opportunity to have Elisabeth fucking Sue. Either as pure narcissistic self love or as hate fuck for what Sue was doing to her. And I think it's a matter of time until some horny crazy person to write something like this is ao3 😭

The good, the bad and the (not so) ugly.
Tumblr media
So, just watched the finale of Land of Women and man did they leave it on a cliffhanger, poor Kevin.
So we have dead Kevin, Fred (hopefully) off to Argentina, Montse pregnant (Amat looking like someone dropped a building on him) and Amat and Gala got their kiss (or several) and can I just say, damn, that man kisses convincingly.
Anyway, some thoughts.
The good - obviously Gala convinces Edna to buy 100,000 bottles of the wine and thereby gets the Co-op out of the financial hole that it is in.
Julia and Mariona make up and Julia decides to stay in La Muga.
Kate tells her dad to fuck off and also decides to stay.
Fred goes off to South America (presumably the ship sailed before he realized that Gala and Amat had jacked his safe).
And, as I had guessed from last week's "we need to talk" moment between Montse and Amat, Montse is pregnant. I definitely have mixed feelings about taking their story in this direction. What I did like was that Montse was the one who got to lay out the terms of their relationship - they were just having fun, they were careful (obviously not careful enough) and they had talked about their relationship a lot. So she seems to be expecting support from him - "there's a third person involved now" - but not necessarily expecting their relationship to change. I don't think there's any question about whether she's going to keep the baby - they keep showing pictures of Amat with a child that's no longer in his life, so he's going to be enthusiastic about that part, after he gets over the shock. So having a pregnant FWB relationship complicates his life but doesn't necessarily preclude him having a relationship with Gala.
And that's clearly the direction they are headed after that kiss. And yes, this has always been the end game - their chemistry is fantastic and the goal all along has clearly been to get them into a relationship - that's always the goal when you put two attractive people in a show and have them strike sparks off each other for six episodes.
What I have an issue with is the unnecessary element of competition that the show runners introduced into the show.
And I still don't get it. This show was touted as women uplifting each other and yet, the show runners felt the need to introduce a character who is not in the book just so that Gala has someone to compete with for Amat (and win).
Why? I don't get it.
Worse yet, they took a frankly gorgeous actress and created hair, makeup, wardrobe and behavior choices to make her plain, masculine and practical, just to set her against the gorgeous, glamorous Gala.
It feels very, very self-indulgent of Eva Longoria (as one of the show runners) to make her own character shine by deliberately down-playing the attractiveness of another female character that is set up as her rival - all so she can win the man.
And they are walking a very fine line here between enhancing the drama and making Amat an absolute shite for pursuing Gala within days of his marathon sex session with Montse (does anyone else think that Gala might have been exaggerating just a little about her disturbed night - seriously, he's in his 40's - most men that age can't go all night). Hopefully, he was at least going to talk to Montse before going any further with Gala - but that wasn't clear.
I think I'm just going to be perpetually confused as to the intentions of the show runners here. And it's a good reminder that showrunners are not often good at critical analysis and don't necessarily think through the consequences of their decisions . Even when they have a vision for a show, they don't necessarily see how other decisions can undermine that message once you apply a critical perspective.
I still loved the show and I'll watch it over and over again - despite his tendency to think with his dick, Amat is a very, very attractive character.
And the show clearly needs another season - although it's not clear that Apple+ is going to give them one, and even if they do, getting everyone back together in Spain might be a little tricky.
As for anything, else, well that's why we have fanfiction. Watch this space.
ETA: And to bear out Rule 34 - there is now porn of it (well at least a little smut) .

Costume Cdramas I watched in 2023
My 2nd year with Chinese dramas as my love for costume drama continues.
The title links to where you can watch it (tried to find free legal watches where available)
The Blood of Youth (40 x 45min, filming started in Oct 2021, released Dec 2022) fun action drama with a good dose of comedy, not for people who want lots of romance because they are too busy (and the canon couples don't have enough chemistry, there I said it) to be making out. Good for bromance, ghost ships and/or ace character head canons. Xiao Se's fur collar wins fur collar of the year, Tang Lian is my blorbo of early 2023.
Tumblr media
My Uncanny Destiny (24 x 30min, filmed in autumn 2021, released Jan 2023) My favorite comedy of the year. Don't get turned off by the toilet jokes, it's a gem that spoofs drama tropes, gives you a coherent plot, silliness, fun side characters, a ML that is not afraid of being silly and a FL that plays capable and silly well. This might be a low budget production but they put that money to work. Politics, cross-dressing, found family, sisterhood, enemies to lovers, third wheel bisexual who reminds me of Wen Kexing, over the top villain, himbo villain who works out shirtless all the time, it got it all.
Tumblr media
Wulin Heroes (22 x 45min, filming started Nov 2020, released Jan 2023) I watched this for Li Hongyi and he is incredibly beautiful in this so props to his stylist and cinematographer. BUT it is a badly written and edited low budget romp. If you are not watching for any actor then do not bother. FL is bearable once you realize she is very much of a lets see where this goes kind of character. 2nd ML is a suffering captive prince turned whiny regent played by Zhu Zanjin. So if you want to see Jin GuangYao suffer, you might like his scenes?? It can totally be read as a throuple especially with the New Tales of Wulin Heroes mini series add on. The choppiness might also be a result of the dangai ban??
Tumblr media
No Doubt in us (24 x 14min, 2021, donghua) saw this on netflix and it roped me in with the body switch trope. It's sufficiently entertaining. Though I didn't enjoy the animation style apart from the chibi scenes.)
Tumblr media
Heaven Official's Blessing (season 1, 11 x 26min, 2020, Donghua) It's THAT story and the art style is so pretty. I haven't read the books yet but still got what was going on most of the time. Liked it a lot. Haven't watched the 2nd season yet)
Tumblr media
The Journey of Chong Zi (40 x 45min, filming started in June 2021, released Feb 2023) This xianxia is a mess! But it gave Scorpion King Li Daikun another memorable role with being the FL's protector. Watching Wang Zhoucheng having a ball with his role was fun. Immortal turned demon Wan Jie is so handsome and tragic. It did draw me in but the main couple is just ick so every time they were apart it immediately got better. ML's refusal to take the antidote to ease his obsession was lmao, FL is naive but charming and her demon styling rocks (do not get the hate on the actress, she is selfmade and there are many bad pretty face actresses around but I guess antis attract antis). Oh and there is a bromance between two of Chong Zi's harem members
Tumblr media
Till the End of the Moon (40 x 55min, started filming in Nov 2021, released April 2023) aka my brain rot drama of the year. Drawn in from episode 1 on. Bai Li and Luo Yunxi <3 Pian Ran, Ye Qingyu, Nian Baiyu and Si Ying. <3 I was spamming tumblr with my screenshots, it was a jolly good time to watch this epic tale of love and suffering and saving the world dilemma with a great cast, characters, costumes, sets and soundtrack with the cdrama ppl of tumblr. If this weren't too complicated for cdrama newbies I'd recommend it to all my friends. Do not skip the dream arc (I ended up liking it) or later stuff will make less sense. I'm still annoyed that we didn't get a good extra episode that wraps up some lose ends for the main side characters and that reunion of the main characters but Youku really went nah we better play it safe with censors not liking happy ends for morally grey characters.
Tumblr media
My Queen (24 x 45min, filmed in 2020, released Jul 2021) An FL enters a romance adventure VR game drama that I watched because I needed some fluff between TtEotM episodes. Why pick this among any other sufficiently entertaining dramas that are probably better written and not as forgetable? Because I wanted to watch Hu Wei (rich nepo baby in The Blood of Youth) in another comedy role >_> and ridiculous overacting he did deliver
Tumblr media
The Trust (30 x 45min, filmed early 2021, released Apr 2023) The life action adaptation of the manhua No doubt in us is based on. I dunno why I finished this, I guess I'm not a quitter and needed silly stuff to balance TtEotM angst. For some reason the director thought it would be a good idea to film this like a donghua and it is causing 2nd hand embarrassment. The ML cannot pull off being a woman in a man's body, not even a martial arts nerd like Xu Yu. Like Wulin Heroes it was filmed before the dangai ban but that didn't stop them from having at least two bromances.
Tumblr media
Wanru's Journey (24 x 35min, filming started in Jun 2021, released May 2023) A mess. So IQIYI released this simply to ride on the wave of Ao Ruipeng's The Blood of Youth popularity. Because this got so chopped down because of the dangai ban and it probably wasn't good to begin with. Basically an actress transmigrates into a dangai screenplay and gets between the leads while also making money by writing fic about them (ok this is my reading but she DID release fic and drawings of them). Of course it takes an unnecessarily dramatic turn, instead of staying on the comedy side, cannot remember more of the plot, oops.
Tumblr media
King is not Easy (20ep x 30min, released Aug 2017) I watched this for the body switch trope and Bai Lu. Nice to see her actual face before the fair skin filter got her, entertaining enough, badly written silly comedy with mind mindbogglingly contrived final 4 episodes. It's Bai Lu's drama debut so it's nice to see how far she got
Tumblr media
Destined (40ep x 45min, filming started in Jun 2022, released June 2023) Highly enjoyable. Fell in love with Bai Jingting. What's not to love about a playboy getting put on his path by his wife and them becoming friends, sworn siblings and then lovers in the process? No this is actually about FL finding her thing (trade) and being wildly successful at it, then it's also political, revenge and more. The leads are extremely charming and have great chemistry (the drama suffers every time they are apart lbr) and the writing is good, though people are too perfect and I wasn't into the whole palace stuff.
Tumblr media
My Journey to You (24 ep x 60min, filming started Dec 2022, released Sep 2023) Had me from episode 1 on. Made me buy IQIYI VIP so I can watch it in good quality. Fell in love with Zhang Linghe. Yu Shuxin needs to do all the wuxia while she is still fit. Why waste being able to do the splits on some modern drama? The director sent her mud wrestling and she went for it. Everyone knows she is pretty no need for her to be beautifully put together on screen 24/7. Love the style, the character introductions, the characters, the cast, the chemistry, the story, the way you expect something and something else is going on. While it started out gloomy and remained so for the most part, it surprised me with throwing in more comedy than I expected. The good old idle manchild gets thrown into a position of power story but it's a murderous martial arts clan against another murderous martial arts clan. It's giving you some information but often just enough for getting what's going on just to play with your expectations later, FUN! And I didn't even mention all the other characters because surprise! this is actually an ensemble drama with several intriguing characters. Do not expect for the two leads to be on screen all the time.
Tumblr media
Hilarious Family (24ep x 45min, started filming in June 2022 (?), released Sept 2023) A fun ensemble comedy I watched for Jackie Li. A widow moves to another city to marry off her 4 daughters (a silly man-crazy one, a homely one, a scholar one and a tomboy one). No it's not Pride and Prejudice but yes of course this is a romcom and all women have a love interest. It kind of drops off later on tbh, but still good for the characters and side characters. The success of this in China hopefully means that Jackie Li will get to be getting more comedies to work in after the Queen Lau disaster and people having a problem with her artist alias in 2022.
Tumblr media
Hello There (20ep x 30min, released Jan 2023) I stumbled on this on IQIYI while looking for a light fast watch that will let my brain relax. The ML's best acting moment is when he plays a wooden robot. FL is fun. There are some questionable scenes, standard low budget action comedy fare.
Tumblr media
An Ancient Love Song (14ep x 30 min, released June 2023) A wonderfully written and executed grown up time traveling story, that shows once again that you don't need a big budget to tell a story that draws you in. Ended my palace politics blockade. All this time traveling and no reincarnation in sight. ;_;
Tumblr media
Story of Kunning Palace (38ep x 45min, filming started in May 2022, released Nov 2023) Tieing 2nd with My Journey to You for brainrot drama of the year. The cinematography is questionable, the story is not for teaching perfect courting behavior but those two are just such a good cp in their awkward messy way. Their friends/sidekicks are fun too and bring some comedy to that story though crazy in love ML is serving some comedy too. Props to ZLH for actually trying to grasp the basics of playing qin and not just waving over the strings like other dramas deem it sufficient. Bai Lu is Bai Lu-ing, gathering her harem. Coming into this right after An Ancient Love Song the idea to defeat destiny this time around seemed hopeless to me but this is one of those they are good at making plans and they turn out mostly alright dramas. I hope those two's material for the next years is as good as the two dramas with them I watched in 2023, fingers crossed!
Tumblr media
Currently watching: A Journey to Love and Taoism Grandmaster as well as 2/3 through a LbFaD rewatch that I started in summer.
I also watched a handful of modern dramas (made in Korea and Japan) and some mini-dramas, but that is for another post.
And yes my most watched actors are probably those uncles stuck in Hengdian, might look that up another day.
If I got the time to blog about a drama I usually do it with screenshots so my tag for those posts is excuse my bad quality screenshots. In other cases I just reblog and put my thoughts in the tags.

Basically women’s whole existence has been systemically reliant on their ability to be mothers, even today. It’s a relic way of thinking that hasn’t been dealt with properly in society.
Gendered Ageism is Sexism
Women are widely only considered attractive at the age they’re “fertile” or “legal” and able to have children. Then women are tossed aside after menopause or even after 30. Whereas men are still considered attractive well into their 50s and even older. Ageist sexism is misogyny. Young women become old, old women were young. They're one in the same, not two different types of women! What's disturbing is we have maintained these antiquated ideas backed with "biology", and yet, teens are by far the most sexualized as we can see how "barely legal teen" porn is the most popular tag today. BUT it's proven that teens are less fertile than women in their 20s! Therefore, there's no excuse to want to go after teens besides a latent pedophilia or want to control someone who is coming out of childhood.
This is exemplified by Hollywood where many actresses are discarded after 40 to play mothers and are told they’re “too old” to play love interests of men over 10 years older than them! This way of thinking makes its way into people’s minds via film and TV and makes it a reality.
Gendered ageism has been experienced by most women by the age of 35-40!
Women over 40 have their jobs hanging by a thread with gendered ageism affecting their leadership positions, their pay, them possibly losing their job, and them having a hard time finding work! Whereas men don’t have the same disadvantages at this age.
Call out people on their gendered ageist bullshit and call out young women who think they’re better just because they’re younger. The young women are digging their own graves when they fight against older women. They will become “old” in no time at all and will have to suffer the same things in addition to possibly being taken advantage of sexually at a young age.
We have to fight this part of sexism if we want true gender equality!

hi, i'm new to the beatles fandom so forgive me my ignorance but in a lot of the fanart i've seen they tend to draw paul mccartney very effeminate and smaller than the others, when isn't he the tallest? from first glance it does kind of seem like a homophobic caricature, though again i might be missing something. is it something to do with the cartoon? which also seems kind of unflattering. sorry, i keep wondering why paul seems to get more distorted than the others by fans, i'm not expecting you to be an expert or anything, but i was hoping you could offer some insight. thanks and have a nice day!
ah, i don't really see that much. not to say there aren't artists who do that, but if there are, i certainly have not been following them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
idk if there's any insight i can offer. it's kind of an age old fandom cliche: artists drawing m/m pairring with one being the "girl" one. same as like, fanartists drawing men in their 40s to look like 20 year old anime twinks, or drawing fat people as curvy with a flat stomach and skinny face, etc. this isn't even exclusive to m/m ships; i once saw egregious fanart for the bear where they drew the main character to be a giant buff dude compared to the main girl even though the actress who plays her is like the same height as him irl. people just do it. you could call it a homophobic caricature, but i don't think it's that nefarious. i think people just internalise the typical heterosexual imagery of every day life in their heads, and paul usually ends up being the "girl" one in that situation. i don't think it's meant to be unflattering. if anything it's being done because those artists probably find that attractive in paul (there's a reason he is the most feminised in fanfiction).
if it bothers you to see that kind of art, my advice would be to simply ignore/block the artists you don't like and follow the ones who don't do that - of which there are plenty, i prommy!

this isn't a request or anything but I just wanted to say that: no matter how delusional I sound, rockstar!joel and actress!reader are real to me! 😭😭 listen, they're so SO entertaining and i just love them lots so THANK YOU for giving us content of them!! 💜💜 (also rockstar!joel is SOOOO attractive, both him and reader. power couple fr)
(i did have one quick question lol. ik it was mentioned somewhere before but what is the age difference between joel and reader, how old were they both when they met? ANDDDDD.....have they garnered any criticism from that despite being adults? lol)
Tumblr media
THEY ARE REAL TO ME TOO SO THIS MAKES MY HEART SO HAPPY 🥹🥹🥹 this was really just such a silly idea at the beginning but it’s very quickly become one of my faves so thank you for loving it as much as I do and TELLING me how much you love it!! They’re truly such a comfort to write and to see people find that same comfort in them is such a privilege I just ugh 😭😭
But to answer your question about the age gap, there is a blink and you miss it discussion of it in I’m Still Standing where Carolina asks how old reader was when she met Joel and she says (and I made this vague for readers to input their own birthdays) “I was… Gosh, I think I was twenty-eight or twenty-nine. Somewhere around there. We met when Ryan and I were filming Hyde… Joel was either thirty-nine or forty when we met. Or, maybe he was forty because we met in the fall, and his birthday is in September.”
I kinda played around with the time frame and I don’t really have a set year in which this all takes place so it’s not a perfect timeline to present day/canon age but it’s fiction for a reason lol!! The timeline in my head is they meet when she’s like ~28/29 and he’s ~39/40 and they’re together for about nineish months (bringing us to spring/summer of the next year when reader would be ~28/29/30 (depending on your birthday) and Joel would be ~39/40) when she goes to Ireland for fifteen months so that would make it like late summer/early fall of the second year when they get back together (r: ~30/31, j: ~41-42) They’re together for like two more years (r: ~32/33, j: ~43/44) before getting engaged and have a year long engagement before getting married (r: ~33/34,j: ~44/45) and then have their first child Sammy two years later on May 15th (either right before or right after Ellie’s birthday and two months before Sarah’s) making reader ~35/36 and Joel ~46/47 when Ellie and Sarah are 20 and 24, respectively. By the time their family is complete with the arrival of the twins four years later reader is ~39/40, Joel is ~50/51, Ellie is ~24, and Sarah is ~28 and Sarah’s first child, Isaac, is ~2!
That’s a lot of math and numbers I just threw at you but the general idea is that they’re 11-12 years apart. I see them maybe getting some criticism from fans but I don’t think it’d be anything as intense as these other celebrity couples with 20-40 year age gaps between them and their partners!! I hope that answered your question and gave you a general timeline of the relationship even though I don’t think that’s what you asked for lol!!

The only thing I’d like to mention here is that sincerely, I don’t believe he is attracted to his wife. And it’s weird of me to say this because they married so the logical response would be, of course he’s into her why else would he marry her? But the body language repeatedly seems otherwise. Repeatedly. And these are just the public instances. //
Anon I’m so glad you mentioned this.
So Gerod butler just got announced at 50 something that he’s dating someone twenty five years younger than him and I immediately went…..wait something isn’t right here. I look at the pics of him and his “gf” and I’m like they look like they just got assigned together. He has a sequel for a movie coming out within the next few years, he’s trying to get back in the lime light. Gladiator 2 will premiere later this year, not sure if he may have a cameo or not but the timing of all of these 40+ yr olds dating these random actresses and models in their 20s has me like…… 🤔 what’s really going on? But why did Chris have to marry the one he was assigned to because I just don’t think it’s legit. I have theories like well people won’t harass him with “why isn’t Chris Evans married” I also see Sebastian Stan dating someone he looks like he’s doing a job with and I know for award seasons being with a significant other is supposed to be”help” chances, not sure why because it should be focused on talent but we all know how Hollywood is.
Now mind you a few really probably like younger women but the majority when you look at the pics seem uncomfortable and like they are just doing what they have to for publicity but the its like why are they agreeing to this? Then you hear about random projects they have coming out or people whose careers should be on hiatus, magically getting multiple roles announced.
Yeah something is up and it’s crazy to think of the rumors of Hollywood and go….are they trying to normalize certain types of relationships? Leo DiCaprio is know for dating younger but many believe he has “beards” and that he’s in the closet, not my business, but Leo finally got that Oscar and we all know Hollywood is a crazy place so who knows.
This is why I’ll never fault the fans in this situation for questioning things, it doesn’t make sense. So question away 👏
Tumblr media
i'll never fault fans for asking the right kind of questions. some questions are too much. make of that what you will.
so is GB's new age-gap-gal an up-and-comer? i'll be honest, i saw the headline and just rolled my eyes and went on.

Hot take I'm seeing quite a few posts confused over why Deadloch isn't trending or much more popular on tumblr because "tumblr is so gay and so feminist". And I am sorry to say this but tumblr isn't the "lesbian website" or the "feminist website". Tumblr loves men just as much as the rest of society does, its user base just loves them in a very online way which makes it look a bit different at times. It has always been this way, starting with shipping every two white dudes in close proximity to each other, over worshipping old male Hollywood actors to downright MRA and anti-feminist talking points in the recent past in "progressive leftist" spaces on here. All done in very uwu political correct tumblr speak of course.
And it's really that simple. Media with two (often times white) guys standing close to each other will always be more popular on here than anything women- or lesbian centric, no matter how many theoretical tumblr approval boxes said media ticks. There is a reason why lesbian shows get canceled left and right. Even if lesbian shows are trending for one or two days there is just no genuine interest from a majority of people (on tumblr and anywhere else). Men overall are rarely interested if it isn't made with the male gaze in mind or focusses on men, straight women aren't interested, even many bi women (don't come at me I am bi) aren't interested because they don't see other women (and often times themselves) as complete and potentially interesting people/characters (how often I've seen women on here saying something along the lines of "my favourite characters are all men but it's just because these characters are so good! Pure coincidence. I would definitely love a female character but I just have never found one I am that obsessed with. Not my fault, they are all written in a bad/boring way").
Doesn't matter how often the word "queer" is thrown around here, all of this has always been the same and it won't change. Which is.. fine? I have never expected it to be something else. A website that isn't specifically designed for lesbians but only attracts lesbians would be magical. But a website thats designed for nerdy people and especially women of that kind will attract.. nerdy people/women. Consisting of the same groups of people that exist in real life, including lots of women attracted to men. I have my little bubble here in which I mainly see lesbian content but the things on my dashboard rarely reflect what's trending or the content of popular posts.
I am not bitter about this because it has never been different (here or anywhere else) but I am surprised that people are still thinking that this website would worship a lesbian-lead and female-centric show when it would be entirely out of character for tumblr as a whole to do so. I mean maybe this is all about the show being australian. Maybe people don't like Australia. I also get that crime shows aren't THAT popular either but I guarantee you, if Dulcie and Eddie were dudes this show would be trending so hard.
Deadloch is a fantastic show. It looks amazing, has fantastic humor, the drama is great, the plot is great, there is a good message behind everything and the show also sprinkles in some of tumblrs top ten greatest political correct catch phrases. The main two characters are played by lesbians, another actress from the main cast is bisexual. One of the main characters is a lesbian and there are several other lesbian characters in the show. The other main character is a woman of color (who SHOULD be same sex attracted but sadly seemingly is not which makes me cry). Almost all important characters are women. Amazingly written by the way. There are plenty of women of color, indigenous women especially, playing important roles. All female characters are complex and nuanced people and their suffering isn't used for shock value or to push forward the plot. The two main female characters are both over 40 years old! What the show doesn't have is the same two decent looking men standing in close proximity to each other. And there really isn't any arguing against my little rant here because the only thing I accept as proving me wrong is a lot of people watching Deadloch or overall more women centric and lesbian centric stuff :) Thank you :)

only the option with the LEAST votes will be eliminated. propaganda under the cut (and more always welcome!):
kit tanthalos and graydon hastur:
Classic arranged marriage trope but the she-hates-him part never goes away because she’s in love with her best friend/bodyguard Jade
alexa, liana, jeremy, and ian:
the Only barbie animated movie where the girl(s) do not end up with a guy. alexa & liana live together and enact a ton of romantic tropes together, the twin guys do flirt with them but then the girls are separated from them by... a magic rainbow. they do dance together at the end of the movie... before the girls leave to go live together again. wearing dresses that are literally the bi and lesbian pride flags. no joke. cottagecore wlw separated from potential male love interests by literal magic rainbow the gayest barbie movie
tobias funke and debrie bardeux:
Debrie starred in a series of softcore gay porn films called Straightbait where she seduces a guy but tells him he has to sleep with another man before he sleeps with her to prove how attracted to her he is, thus proving he isn’t gay. Tobias is also super gay. They date for like 40 episodes and raise a son together. Tobias gets left by his first wife for not being sexually attracted to her and then has an affair with a gay porn actress from a series called straightbait I just think it’s pretty funny.
haruhi fujioka and hikaru hitachiin:
Haruhi x Hikaru from ouran high school host club. Yes i know she technically gets together with another boy in the end, but there is something so Queer about this ship in particular. Their whole date episode is just screaming Not Straight. For both of them.
ash ketchum and misty:
They’re basically set up as a kind of enemies to friends story and they make recurring jokes about how she clearly has a big crush on him, but nothing ever happens My childhood, i shipped them when I was 10
cali and flynn:
It starts off as a one-sided crush on Flynn’s side, and later becomes mutual when Cali develops feelings for him in the Skylanders IDW spin-off comics, their romantic tension lasts for most of the franchise (five games, a chapter of a spin-off comic, and a few bits and pieces in the spin-off books and mobile games), so far they’ve never gotten together as the franchise is currently still in hiatus mode (says this while on extreme copium) I think we need to appreciate the tropes in Calynn: Opposites Attract, Tough Girl x Himbo, Smart x Dumb, “You’re stupid, I like that in a man” vibes all over this ship! Seven year old me didn’t see Cali calling Flynn her guy in the sky whilst Flynn looked at her with heart eyes to lose to some other pairing!
alec hardy and ellie miller:
They're your classic workplace enemies to lovers. Alec takes the job that Ellie was meant for, they're forced to work together on a devastating murder case, they bond. Over three series Alec becomes more human and lets his walls down around Ellie, and she begins to respect and trust him as a colleague and as a friend. Its a Big Deal when they hug. In most cases, especially when it's an m/f detective duo, they would end up together. But yet. Thee David Tennant and Olivia Coleman did not even have an aborted kiss or feelings confession. Neither of them end up with anyone else but they don't hint at anything at the end either. Queer Ally of all time David Tennant does straightbait ironically.
good luck everyone! now go vote!

Shae Landers
Shae Landers, who is a "woman" not girl who is 34 as of October. She wears these teenage teeny bopper clothes, like these little skirts with fluff on them like kiddie clothes…teeny bopper clothes. and she acts like a teenager in every way. She does not have a full time career job but lives with her parents and dreams about being a full time actress at 34. Hey, by age 35 you are over the hill in acting and sure getting some little acting gig once in a while does not equal to being a full time actress, not even close nor can she support herself on the once in a blue moon mostly extra gigs.... I had gigs.
She constantly goes to Disney Land and the selfies/videos she takes is not that of a mature person, it’s like a teenager. I am not saying you can't go to Disney Land as an adult, but she does it often plus she just acts like a little teenager... She skips around in vids and the way she acts and talks and struts is so immature, like a little 13 years old. She must be mentally challenged.
And her friends (some are younger then her) the way they act is like group of teen girls….I am wondering if she is challenged because who acts like she does at 34? Shae will be 35 by one year, pretty soon she will be a cougar on the prowl. She is afraid of aging, this is why she is still trying to act and dress like a little girl, it's pathetic. she is getting older and nothing she can do about it. Botox will only take you so far when you are getting so closeer to the big 40.
And it's sad the way she continues to try to get attention. First off, her body is not that great, she is flat chested and just average body and her long nose and beedie eyes is enough to give somebody nightmares.
The B is almost of the early stages of mid life. Early stages of mid life start at 35… I am not saying she can’t do tik toks and have fun but she does so the same exact way a little teen girl would, very immature. On top of it she has this high pitch voice and she seems like she is still trying to look much younger than she is. One picture she wore her hair in pig tails, and this dress a 12 year old would wear, Kiddy stuff in a photo. I am like WTF.??? And she talks about her “crush” like Crush? Who uses the word crush passed age 18? She thinks she’s adorable but I find it immature and ridiculous and pathetic looking at a grown woman acting like a teen girl.
It's going to be really funny once she gets to be a total hag because she is obviously in denial that she is getting older. So it's not like she is 20 with a lot of youth left so this is going to be getting even more funnier yet as she ages more up into her 30s and heads into 40 and on from there trying to be a young girl.
The worse part about Shae is she has called many girls sluts when she is the slut. She is half naked half the time and would sleep with a guy right away if she is attracted to him, not get to know him first, like a easy fast lay. Who is the slut????? and the clothes she wears at her age is pathetic. I hope she knows how much entertainment she has been giving me, as I love a good laugh and all I have to do is watch her and I laugh so hard.
Like she calls other females sluts to try to deny she is the real slut. She is better then any comedy. She is obviously hungry for attention but nobody cares about her existence except for her family and handful of friends. I just love watching her for a good laugh... She will be 50 waiting tables and talking with her high pitch little girl voice and taking acting classes with kids and teens and wearing tween clothes and going to Disney Land and running for botox and saying "oh I'm still a cute little girl" LOL.... She isn't cute. and she is going to be middle age in the near future... she can't even see how contemptable she is. LMFAO. oh, and SLUT. Nobody cares about her, but she tries so hard to get attention. I almost feel sorry for her, but not that much.
Funny farm gal Shae Landers. you are not cute.. and what a SLUT. She acts like this because she is afraid of getting older, but hello, you are getting older and going to be going into your mid life not that far from now and so keep acting and dressing like you do, in the future it's going to be a real comedy show, it's already a comedy. When you get in your 40s then 50s and on what are you going to do? LOL because obviously you fear aging and you are quite pathetic trying to act half your age. LMAO. When she is a wrinkled 45 yr old she will probably be trying to hang with young girls.... and still acting like a kid. I mean, I honestly can't believe how she thinks she is so cute at almost 34 dressing and acting like 16 when she is almost a middle aged pathetic joke.
