I knew it was super structured but I didn't think they probably literally had papers of exactly how much money the fan spent with people taking notes and giving tips like ...........................I need an HBO expose documentary on all of this. Kpop the corruption of love. I feel like at least in japan people know what it is it's pretty transparent but in korea there's a layer of feigned authenticity that's really dangerous.
something I did for a friend’s birthday
13/14/15 year olds debuting in kpop IS a problem and i wish kpop stans would stop pretending it’s not thank u
Conrad and Jeremiah
Conrad has rage issues but Jerimiah lowkey hates Conrad for leaving him to take care of their mother by himself. He also resents Conrad for being a spoiled brat and lowkey their mother's favorite despite being a jerk. Personally the only way to settle the beef they undoubtably have is to fight it out fair and square. Otherwise they will be in their 40s avoiding each other and fighting on facebook until they are 80.
2. Conrad's old gf Nicole and Belly
Personally Belly is kind of trash for how she constantly went back and forth with Conrad and Jerimiah, but she's more trash for basically being on standby for Conrad even when he had a gf. I didn't like that. Belly is young yes but it's not like she got more mature with age at all. So I think it's just a personality trait. So out of fairness her and Conrad's first gf should fight it out fair and square cause of the sneaky way Belly pursued Conrad on the low. I'll be honest I watched the show awhile ago and I don't really remember clearly what happened but even if Nicole was framed as the villain it's clear Belly is super immature and Conrad was no prize. I hate them using her like that as a conflict plotline.
3. Nicole and Conrad
Conrad wasted multiple female's time on this show including his mother. He's very selfish and rude. I get he was angsty by nature, but he was constantly playing games. Looking back that's the one thing I hated about this show and shows in general. You always have guys who have great girlfriend's who are nice and sweet and they just use them up and go onto the next one. So I believe they should also box.
4. Conrad and Jerimiah's mom and Belly's mom
They were so cute, but I still felt this weird air of classism and oddness about their friendship. Like I definitely sense some weird air that Susannah was able to override Laurel's opinion on parenting. Even though they only had a summer together every year. I think it was definitely enough to shape belly's opinion of how the world ran. She became attracted to the boys via the wealth and lifestyle she saw at the summer house. I get that there was some cracks in the facade of their friendship that wasn't able to be explored because of Belly's innocence and lack of knowledge about the world. Anyway I think if Susannah lived they definitely would of had a falling out if for no other reason than how the boys were affecting Belly. Susannah had two boys and just let them do whatever obvious by Conrad's behavior. She didn't understand how that could affect such a young girl like Belly. Susannah was kind of a bad parent and Laurel just had to shut up about it for obvious reasons. For that reason they should box fair and square in like the 1st season or earlier.
5. Taylor and Steven
They triggered each other so much and just fell in love. Very dumb. I think they should of boxed. They dang near did. But I think a nice beach fight would suffice. She would probably win but it's ok. Then they can fall in instalove.
I love how @runwaylooks asked us what radical feminist has done and continues to do to this day, and then immediately deletes the post.
Anways…
1. Arab radical feminists liberating women across the Middle East (here, here)
2. African feminists bringing exposure to and addressing issues such as FGM and menstrual stigma. Examples include Laetitia Ky, Hibo Wardere, Sylvia Chioma, Nomcebo Mkhaliphi who you can all read more about here, since they were all under attack by trans activists over their activism.
3. Radical feminism rising all across Latin America, addressing issues such as femicide and abortion rights (here, here, here). Speaking of radical feminism in Latin America, you can watch this discussion with Bruna Santiago, the co-editor of Radical Feminism Magazine QG Feminista (a radical feminist magazine in Brazil) here, including other radical / gender-critical feminists. These are all comprised of women who work to bring awareness to women’s sex-based rights, among other feminist topics in Brazil (femicide, abortion, sexual violence).
4. Radical feminists in South Korea developing the 4B (”4 ‘No’s”) movement to liberate women in the country from centering men, and other patriarchal practices, from their lives. You can read more about it here, here, and here. Speaking of feminism in South Korea, it has actually grown more radical feminist as the country descends more into extreme patriarchy. They also address femicide and abortion rights, among many other topics.
5. French radical feminists fighting against violence against women in their country, as well as street violence and harassment (here)
6. Groups like Radical Women that continue to unite and uphold womens’ activism in various regions (here is the link to their website where you can browse around)
And those are just some, I’m sure we can find much more.
