i don't know

this whole "el needs to learn independence away from men" narrative feels an awful lot like "this female character is getting in the way of my ship so let me use this feminist argument so it looks good and well meaning and hides the fact that my actual intention behind it completely centres a man"

ship who you want to ship but if you did actually care about that conversation then you'd know it has no place in shipping wars

I don’t think ST fans understand what show they’re watching like ship what you ship but they aren’t going to go “hey you see this girl who was tortured, abused and denied humanity her entire life? Let her boyfriend cheat on her with her brother figure, all her friends and family abandon her and side with her cheating boyfriend and then she dies violently all in the last 4 episodes!” That’s not going to happen, you can ship will & Mike idc but there’s not going to be a cheating plot despite your desperation for one

"el needs to be independent and make her own choices, that's why mileven should break up!!1!" EL HAS ALREADY HAD MULTIPLE INDEPENDENCE ARCS AND EVERY SINGLE TIME SHE STILL CHOOSES TO BE IN A ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP WITH MIKE!!! STOP DIMINISHING HER AGENCY STOP IT!!!

I have genuinely NEVER seen a subsection of a fandom so adamant in convincing the shippers who enjoy the canon m/f relationship that they are delusional for like... watching the same interactions/dialogues/scenes everyone else has on their screens??? It also baffles me the tremendous amount of misogynistic arguments being thrown around against the female protagonist just because she's perceived as an obstacle to the allegedly endgame mlm couple. Yes, this is about fucking byler.
