don't know if you're a woc/ specifically a latinx woman but if not i hope other person on this blog is so they could share their thoughts on this but recently I've read some think pieces here on Tumblr of those who support R+J relationship and a lot of them say R being with J is a representation of her embracing and connecting with her identity as a diaspora latina in the US which I think it's kinda bs, because you can be 100% pro latinidad/POC solidarity and still call out an specific problematic behavior that our community is plagued with and it's abuse/grooming.

I've also read how harmful it is for us zeglyths to ship R with a white man because we're disregarding her boyfriend (POC) I think they're trying to compare R situation to India and Corey from QC and Halle Bailey and Jonah in TLM and how "swirling" shipping is racist especially to the woc actress.

1) Do we know something abt R previous bfs? She seems like she don't have a type and it seems like she dated at least 1 white guy before J

2) Her mom married white and her sister is dating a white guy too so idt she's having pressure at home for potentially dating out of her culture also if she dated T or any other white man she still be dating within her race because despite her phenotype R considers herself a white latina, so idk why people are making such fuss??

3) POC men can also be problematic, we can be critical of their personal character without resorting to racism. This might be a bonus but boricua men are notoriously known for being toxic 💀 so J was already on thin ice when I heard he's puerto rican and then the whole 6-7 age gap made me go HELL NO

I’m a WoC but not Latina. The whole “if you date outside your face, you can’t support your own race at the same time” is BS and racist. If Halle B and Jonah dated, Halle B would still be black and can discuss black issues. Same thing with R and T. R would still be Latina no matter how people try to frame it.

And shipping Zeglyth has nothing to do with J for me lol. I want R to dump J but if they break up and she dates someone better (even if it’s not T) I would still be happy for her (no matter their ethnicity or race).

1) No I don’t know but I believe they were either Latino and/or white!

2) it shouldn’t matter! And I don’t think R cares, she just wants someone to make her happy lol regardless of what they look like

3) exactly! Anyone can be toxic. There’s bad people in all races, gender, shapes and sizes.
