why are we here? just to suffer? every 5 minutes i have to clean my glasses
Radical feminism is not about a woman’s happiness...
It is about dismantling the social constructs forced upon women. It is not a neatly wrapped gift tied with a bow, presented to every woman so she may open it with joy and satisfaction. We are trapped in a consumerist mindset, where everything is viewed as a product meant for our pleasure and consumption.
Many women have harsh and abrupt encounters with radical feminism because it disrupts their “individualistic choice-making” mindset. It forces accountability and rejects female infantilization. It demands that we question the systems we participate in, rather than simply indulging in personal comfort.
So, of course the average woman wouldn't care about radical feminism... It doesn’t offer instant gratification. It doesn’t promise happiness or comfort. That’s the reality. Unlike neoliberalism which promises that regardless of choice or context, as long as YOU are making the choice, then it is empowering. Radical feminism is about fighting—about refusing to accept the conditions we’ve been given. Yet, under patriarchal social constructs, women have been conditioned to do the opposite: to lay down and take it.
Radical feminism aims to break this cycle, but it isn’t easy, and it isn’t supposed to be. It is a call to action, not a balm to satisfy your individual wounds.
I think it's odd how we don't talk about the fact that Natalie very much also knows about Gabriel and is keeping it from Adrien.
Sure Marinette and Natalie decided not to tell Adrien but Natalie is an adult. She could have told Marinette that it isn't right or said anything other than just agree to what Mari said literally moments after the battle ended.
Mari probably hadn't even properly come to terms with just happened mere moments ago.
This is not Natalie hate, or any hate, just think we should talk about the fact that Natalie is also keeping this secret from Adrien for longer than anyone else and is an adult as compared to a heavily traumatized and burdened teenager.

why can't women characters hate their abusers the way male characters can😔
do you think adrien would be a swiftie bc i do. i actually think he has a spotify playlist named “right where you left me” that he shuffles whenever he needs to face the horrors of his childhood and wallow a bit before resuming his facade of false happiness and belonging in a world that glorifies the cause of his suffering
or maybe that’s just me
