Kawaiifrags is a blessing in disguise and heres why
I see a lot of ppl hating on kawaiifrags and i genuinely dont think people are getting the significance on how good this can actually be so im lowk gonna explain ๐ฅน๐ซฐ
If u dont know what kawaiifrags is, its basically the mcyt, flamefrags, put in cute outfits like frilly dresses and pink colors, contrasting his usual skin
A lot of people hate on the fanarts depicting him as such but i genuinely think this could be a good thing and a step in the right direction for a bigger picture.
Normally in media, men, specifcally men of color, are depicted in a very set and clear way, of being strong and determined but also having them view masculinity as a sort of lifeline (or something that makes them a man) and absolutely refuse to show men of color, or just men in general, show any scrape of femininity, afraid it would shatter their masculine persona and make them a weak character.
More specifically, media portrays men as these role models if what men are supposed to be like, and that any ounce of femininity makes them weak, or makes them less of a man.
And in a ripple effect, any feminine trait can include sensitivity, crying, emotional closeness, etc. men, and specifically men of color (and also just poc in general) are refrained from showing any kind of feminine traits because of the fear that the audience will see them as weak or feminine.
Now what does this have to do with kawaiifrags?
Kawaiifrags completely shatters this media trope and opens up a door (thats rarely open) for a man of color to be portrayed outside of this stagnant masculine trope and can help break the stereotype men of color and just men in general being these stark, infinitely strong beings with no emotions or feminine traits.
Kawaiifrags allows for a man of color to be portrayed in a healthy feminine way, which is a stark contrast from how men of color are normally portrayed in media, which gives us some insight on how feminine traits given to men in media doesnโt make them less of a man, but instead is what makes them human. It breaks them out of these robotic expectations and judgements we pass and what we THINK masculinity is.
Its to show that a man can have emotion and have femininely viewed traits, but it doesnt suddenly take away from their masculinity and make them weak.
