Okay TW for SA but truly. No one will ever be able to convince me that Bucky wasn't sexually assaulted in his time as the Winter Soldier. He was stripped of autonomy to the point that he didn't even understand it as an abstract concept. He was so dehumanized that he wasn't even an ANIMAL, he was an OBJECT. A weapon, like a gun. And you're telling me that a man like that, who does not even know that "no" is a response he can give, who does not even possess the mental faculties to understand consent, was never taken advantage of? By the... *checks notes* dozens and dozens of very evil men who kept him captive for the better part of a century? These are already men predisposed to violence by virtue of the fact that they are in HYDRA. These violent men are then given weapons and power and the ability to operate with complete secrecy, with no power structure to hold them accountable...
I simply don't understand people who will die on the hill that it couldn't have happened. Aside from the very rudimentary logic which (if you ask me) makes a pretty plausible case for SA, we see him stripped down, smacked around, his own lack of autonomy used to entice people to him. He is constantly touched and moved and undressed. Idk maybe it's me projecting, but so much of Bucky's story is at the very least an allegory for SA. I find it to be a compelling theory even without concrete proof.

Get to know your mutuals: tag game
Thank you so much again for tagging & including me @musette22 💙
What's the origin of your blog title: It’s French for ‘fluid views’ (plus it sounds really nice) because I was thinking about the blog being a place where you leave footprints of yourself constantly changing, evolving and ‘shifting’ views all the time, and ‘fluid’ covers that pretty well, so that’s why I picked it :)
OTPs + Shipname: Stucky
Favorite Color: blue, always💙
Favorite game: Any kind of games? I like playing catch? Does that count? Oh and Ludo!
Song stuck in your head: Let me copy & paste 😂: It’s Beethoven’s “Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-Sharp Minor, Op. 27 No. 2 “Moonlight Sonata”: I. Adagio sostenuto.” (lol)
Weirdest habit/ trait: I keep my fan on even in winter, because 1. I’m extra intolerant of warm weather or still air (I feel breathless when the air is still) and 2. I’m used to the sound of it, and when I turn it off all the unblocked noise drives me nuts.
Hobbies: movies, reading, writing, reading fanfiction, history, learning (about anything), exploring/listening to music. And doing random creative stuff if the idea is there.
Something you're good at: maths & physics, I don’t necessarily love these, but I am rather quick with them when I have to. It’s been the same in school, these were my best subjects.
Something you're bad at: directions, understanding architecture (like anything beyond just looking at them with no further curiosity)
Something you love: I love staying indoors, and having extra uninterrupted privacy and solitude (which is a privilege most people can’t have). But also nature and forests.
Something you could talk about for hours off the cuff: Stucky, Steve and Bucky (and other MCU characters), history of WWII, human nature and civilization, and just philosophy.
Something you hate: I hate being rushed into things. I also often find having to eat so frequently exhausting. (Like right now I have to get up and eat ugh)
Something you collect: older books and mugs. But I also read / use them.
Something you forget: I’m very likely to forget including the cost of drinks when I eat at cafés. Embarrassing.
Favourite movie / show: my favorite shows are 11.22.63 (2016) and WandaVision
Favorite food: if pancakes & chocolate chip cookies (my own recipes only) don’t count, I’ll go with roasted potatoes.
Favorite animal: cats.. and deer? Deer are so pretty! And dogs of course.
What were you like as a child: until I was 7, I think really active and playful, but after that, I became a loud, obnoxious, talkative monster until 10-11 or so.
If you could change any detail about your life right now, what would it be: move far away.
If you could travel in time, who would you like to meet? This is hard, either my dad before I was born, or if I could, maybe JFK? I am fascinated by that particular short period.
I can only think of a few to tag, but since we haven’t interacted that much please feel free to ignore this if you don’t want to play!
@guiltypleasureisfun @soliddarrity
I hope there are more people I can tag in the future!
(she/her). I like leisure, reading, music, movies, history, Captain America, & a bunch more.
