WAG culture in itself is misogynistic, for its ground is recognizing women and linking their identity to their athlete husbands/boyfriends. Both WAG "fans" and WAG "snark" communities contribute to this.

WAG fans in a nearly parasocial manner (because there is no other way to connect to partner of an athlete) idolize the lifestyle, fashion and personalities of WAGs. Often, measure of a WAG is how they appeal to femininity. Traditionally feminine characteristics are appreciated and looked up to. It requires a performance that is sold and continues to be sold because there is an audience for it. This is not to say WAGs should not be respected or let live as partners, but rather glamorizing or envying or reinforcing this recognition is detrimental for young women. WAGs were and will remain a concept if we attend to it.

On the other hand, WAG snark pages are just breeding grounds for misogyny in the name of criticizing (partners of) multi-millionaires. Women are called accessories and gold diggers, body shamed, their past/present/future and relationship is speculated. All of this happens in a bizzare, hive-minded space where you are primarily present to "snark" (an euphemism for harrssement).

Unfortunately, both spaces are populated by women. Tragic.

I feel genuinely moved by the amount of posts/tweets I have come across with people trying to pray for Charles, get Etsy Witches to bless him, begging for Charles to go church, get baptized, restart the ritual of stitched cross on his suit. Collective worship, this is truly a religious experience.

[fuyumigf]

there's genre of f1 rpf where a couple explores Charles as their third... and it works with every and any pairings.... both being absurdly into it, one in love other whose idea this was not psychoanalyzing the dynamic, the cuck ones... genuinely everything works lol

[fuyumigf]

Very curious about why Charles seems to speak a little (sometimes, considerably) louder than everyone else? Is he naturally loud? Has he always spoken quite loudly or is this a recent development? Does he get loud (and takes a sort of TV anchor kind of cadence) when he is being interviewed?

so many people talk about redemption arcs of fictional characters and say "you can't say someone doesn't deserve redemption, it constitutes of actions to redeem mistakes and it isn't earned. you can't stop a character from growing to become a better person." and it's funny because baby these characters aren't real, they are written. it's all narrative. the character isn't atoning, the author wants to put this abuser into a lighter light so they can be sympathised with. because hey, now they're doing better right? and not that abusers can't regret and try to make for their mistakes but the notion of redemption brings the discussion about forgiveness and, more often than not, it is expected of the victims to forgive and acknowledge the atonement (if not by the abuser then by the narrative and even the audience). and the characters often forgive. and then, it is always said that they're allowed to forgive and want to move on and deal with their personal feelings. but baby, it's all narrative. but remorse is human? sure. but are depictions of remorse often present to make abusers palatable? yes, and it works too. forgiveness is often seen as a person's absolution from their actions and guilt. atonement often begs for forgiveness, more or less. it depends heavily on how narrative carries out an atonement arc. but does a character deserve to be given atonement arc or not? still a valid question. because the narrative gives the character atonement. they're not atoning on their own. some mistakes and actions can beg for change and forgiveness. some do not deserve to. and a more important question to ask is: why does the narrative want to redeem this character?

i think hanseo is street smart (street in question is fighting for life every second he's around his brother)

[fuyumigf]

isn't it absolutely poetic that hanseok had belittled and mocked hanseo's intelligence every chance he got, even when hanseo did something to prove his worth to his elder brother he had mocked him saying "that's so you, always the hard way" implying he just can't be any smarter. and at the end it had been hanseo's "hard way" of putting trackers in all his watches that got his ass.

Hmmmm

[fuyumigf]

no because the worst thing u can say to an abuse victim is compare them to an abuser..
