35. What books with female leads do you hope will be adapted into movies/tv series some day?

ok so i also don’t read a lot BUT. even though there have already been and are currently being done adaptations of carrie, i really hope someone will make an accurate adaptation with carrie being fat and her mother being. ya know. bad. both the 76 movie and this new series they’re making are lacking in either of those😬

hiii megan thank u ☺️

7. What's the one thing people get wrong about your favorite female characters?

luckily i don’t see a lot of discourse around the characters i like that aren’t in ST lol. i guess for nancy, people focus too hard on her romantic plotlines in a way that they deem to be more progressive. like it probably seems hypocritical for me to be like ‘she can be independent while being in a relationship!!’ when so many people have said the same about el and i kind of disagreed with that premise lol. i think it’s because nancy has always been very self assured and has had a well established sense of self worth and independence since around the end of the first season. i don’t think she has ever been hindered in that regard by her relationship from that point onwards. people seem to base it more on a general principle they have that they apply to everything instead of what we actually see in the show. man i think it depends.

14. Which female characters' life would you want?

answered here

36. Is there a specific genre of movies with female leads that you've been drawn to recently?

i guess a lot of horror/slasher kind of films. what comes to mind is the scream movies, lisa frankenstein, nightmare on elm street, fear street and jennifer’s body. and i also think what a lot of these have in common is comedy as well. i feel like horror/comedy is one of my fav genre combinations. and i mean slashers kind of encapsulate that.

hi mollyyyy 😁 8, 9, 14?

14. Which female characters' life would you want?

molly gunn from uptown girls 🤔

hiii chloe ty 🤗🤗

2. Who were your favorite female characters as a child?

cat and jade from victorious. carly and sam from icarly. lisa simpson. belle from beauty and the beast although i don’t actually think i ever watched the movie 😭 barbie! audrey from little shop of horrors. lavagirl. gabriella montez. princess fiona. daphne blake.

4. What are your favorite platonic female pairings?

probably cat and jade again lol and sam and carly. i like nancy and max in st but idk how much of a pairing that is. joey and jen from dawsons creek.

5. What are your favorite non-platonic female pairings?

brittany/santana, emily/alison from pll, jennifer/needy. i actually quite like regina george/janis ian

20. What tropes do you hate with female characters?

when their strength as a character is attributed to being overpowered/badass/good in combat. see: nancy wheeler with a gun. the idea that they have to be married with kids to have a happy ending. when characters who are bitter or cruel are revealed to be that way because they’re secretly lonely without a romantic relationship (i saw someone say this about sue sylvester in one episode and was like oh my godddd)

hiiii thank you ♥️

1. Who are your all-time favorite fictional female characters? Do you think you have a type?

joey potter - dawsons creek

nancy wheeler - stranger things

lisa swallows - lisa frankenstein

dee reynolds - it’s always sunny in philadelphia

i had some other thoughts that aren’t all timers probably. i guess what these have in common is either being quite ambitious and independent or funny and kind of fucked up. or very. and they can all be abrasive lol.

9. Which female characters are you most similar to?

probably lisa swallows again. lowkey gabriella from high school musical. i think lexi from euphoria although i haven’t watched the last season. i got her on a personality quiz. maybe needy from jennifer’s body.

21. What's your hottest take on female characters?

ouhhhh probably that dislike or criticism of a lot of female characters is too quickly attributed to misogyny without considering the individual case i guess? that’s not to say a lot of people don’t have double standards with the characters they like/dislike based on gender, but sometimes it feels like female characters with unlikeable traits who aren’t particularly well written are treated as if they should be exempt from others’ criticism solely because of being a woman.

32. What were the most recent movies/tv series you watched with female leads?

pretty little liars! fear street, flashdance, jennifer’s body, a nightmare on elm street. ofc lisa frankenstein.

“Anon you’re just moving the goalposts now. First your argument was “you only like bottom!Will because he’s feminine” and now it’s “Will’s not even feminine in the first place”. Those are two completely separate arguments.”

Different anon here, but not really. People are saying you only force Will into the strict bottom box because you think he’s feminine. Is that not what people are doing?

Will isn’t “effeminate.” He’s boyish.

if you say so 🤷🏻‍♀️ people are clearly aware that will is perceived as feminine canonically when they call it stereotyping.

Anonymous asked:

“When has Will ever done something that’s actually “effeminate”?”

Anon you’re just moving the goalposts now. First your argument was “you only like bottom!Will because he’s feminine” and now it’s “Will’s not even feminine in the first place”. Those are two completely separate arguments.

yeah 😭
